Vacancy

Software developers

Danske Commodities (DC) is on a mission. We want to pave the way for the green transition by making renewable energy a profitable business – and we need skilled software developers like you to do it!
Software Development at DC
You will join a team of more than 50 motivated software developers. We are a laid-back, yet curious, bunch - and we eagerly seek out new technologies, practices and methodologies to incorporate into our daily work. Our culture is informal and learning-based, and you will get the opportunity to leverage your existing skill set and add new competencies along the way.

As software developers at DC, we get to develop systems and then actually see them used to make a difference. Not only that, but we are usually seated right next to our trading colleagues and frequently chat about how to make the software even better. The satisfaction from impacting the full lifecycle of our code is hard to describe. You will have to experience it for yourself!

We enjoy getting together across the entire team for movie nights, go-karting, boardgames, biking, dinners and everything in between. Oh, and then there is the mythical and unprecedented developer end-of-season holiday quiz… You don’t want to miss out! Some of us are also parents, and we understand what it means to be a professional developer and a parent at the same time. Need flexibility to make the batteries last all day? We got you covered on that as well.

Tech-stuff – always finding the best solution
On the technical side, we are primarily based on .NET6, although we venture into Python and Java when needed. We develop distributed systems using a splash of DDD. We use Apache Pulsar for brokering messages as well as data across the wire (we are proud contributors of the DotPulsar library). MSSQL is our go-to database, but we have a select few other databases around as well. We talk REST or gRPC when synchronous communication is appropriate – sometimes with a bit of GraphQL as well.Software delivery is of course continuous and automated, and we deploy on both traditional VMs as well as our brand new OpenShift cluster. This also means that we are shifting from Windows to Linux and from servers to containers.

Different work areas within Software Development
We are currently ramping up in several different development teams within Software Development:

  • Financial systems
  • Algorithmic trading systems
  • Compliance systems
  • Risk management systems
  • Gas trading systems
  • ETRM project

All of these offer exciting tasks in a specific part of the energy trading domain. Each team owns at least one product which they develop to meet the ever-changing demands of the energy markets. You will be doing both greenfield and brownfield development. You will learn to take ideas and convert them to working systems running in a production environment. “You build it, you deploy it, you run it” is the mentality, and you will learn to appreciate fully automated continuous integration and delivery.

Join us and impact our journey from being a tech-enabled company to a tech-driven company!
