Redefine the built environment through digital innovation.

Arup’s purpose, shared values and collaborative approach has set us apart for over 75 years, guiding how we shape a better world.

Join our Digital Services team at Arup in the Netherlands, where innovation and collaboration drive our cutting-edge projects. We are redefining how technology enhances engineering and planning across the built and natural environments.

The Opportunity

Help us transform the built environment through advanced digital solutions. You will have the opportunity to lead, innovate, and contribute to high-impact projects that integrate engineering excellence with digital tools. This role offers you a platform to grow as a leader in full-stack development while shaping sustainable and efficient solutions alongside a passionate, multidisciplinary team.

As a Senior Full Stack Developer at Arup, you will:

• Take ownership of end-to-end feature development—designing, developing, and maintaining scalable, user-friendly web applications that support our digital and engineering projects. You will implement intuitive front-end interfaces and robust back-end systems using modern frameworks and tools.
• Collaborate with multi-disciplinary teams to understand user needs, contribute to technical architecture decisions, and integrate platforms with other digital services. You’ll also use 3D and spatial data visualization to make complex datasets accessible and actionable.
• Mentor junior developers and help build a strong engineering culture through knowledge sharing, pair programming, and leadership in best practices.
• Ensure high-quality, secure, and reliable software through participation in code reviews, testing, and DevOps processes.
• Stay at the forefront of innovation by engaging in research and experimentation with emerging technologies, while also contributing technical expertise to bids, proposals, and client discussions.

Does this role inspire you?

We're looking for someone who is passionate about building scalable digital tools that enable sustainable and smart infrastructure. We also value:

• Proven full stack development expertise (5+ years) with experience in both front-end (React, Next.js, HTML/CSS, JavaScript/TypeScript) and back-end (Node.js, Python, .NET or similar) technologies.
• Experience with databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL), APIs, and cloud services (e.g., AWS or Azure).
• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines, containerization (Docker), and automated testing.
• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to lead and inspire small technical teams.
• Knowledge of spatial and 3D data visualization tools is a strong plus.
