Ready to grow with us?
At TransConnect, we’re building the most innovative car transport platform in Europe. Our mission? To make vehicle transport as fast and effortless as possible for our customers. And to make that happen, we improve our software every single day. Starting this summer, we’re setting up a brand-new development team at our Zwolle office.
Do you have what it takes to guide that team, both technically and personally, to the next level? Then you might be the Lead Developer we’re looking for.

- Translate product roadmaps into clear sprint goals and divide work within the team
- Actively contribute to the codebase with PHP (Laravel) and TypeScript (React)
- Coach senior, medior and junior developers, conduct code reviews and host knowledge sessions
- Collaborate closely with QA, DevOps and Product Owners to further enhance our CI/CD pipelines and test automation
- Act as a bridge between our Zwolle-based team and our international colleagues
Who are you?
- You bring at least 6 years of experience as a software developer, including 1 year in a leadership or mentoring role
- You operate at a higher professional or academic level, ideally with a background in Computer Science or a similar field (though your experience and vision are more important than your degree)
- You’re highly skilled in PHP (Laravel) and TypeScript/React
- You have a broad technical background, including topics like microservices, REST/GraphQL APIs and cloud infrastructure
- You believe in clean code, high-quality standards, and long-term solutions
- You know your way around design patterns and know how to explain and apply them
- You communicate fluently in both Dutch and English
- You’re excited by the challenge of building up a new team and making technical decisions that will last
- You stay on top of the latest developments in software engineering and enjoy driving technological innovation within your team and organisation
