Software Developer

Hybrid/Remote, Helsinki - Southern Finland / Full-time

We're looking for a software developer to join our product team to support scaling up our international expansion. We offer a diverse position in a talented and ambitious team where you will help shape the future of the company.

Venuu

Venuu is the largest event venue & service booking marketplace in the Nordics. We gather the best venues, experiences, and other ingredients for all events of your life – be it a meeting, a wedding or a christmas party.

Currently we operate in five countries and the service has 250000 monthly users. We have plans to open 15 new markets in the next three years and become the first truly global player in the domain. 

Our main office and HQ is located in the heart of Helsinki, and we have recently opened a new office in Barcelona. We value flexibility, so whether you prefer to work from the office or remotely is up to you - we'd still hope to see you every now and then for recreational team events though.

Our product team working culture is relaxed, but ambitious. We aim high, but not at the expense of our people. We achieve this by working at our own pace on the most impactful projects and automating all the rest.
