BACKEND TEAM OVERVIEW

Our dedicated backend team specialises in assisting companies in recruiting engineering talent with expertise in Java, .Net, Python, PHP, and Ruby. In the past year, we delved deeper into this domain by establishing a functional programming tribe. This specialised tribe focuses exclusively on collaborating with engineers skilled in Elixir, Scala, Rust, Closure, and Erlang.

By fostering vibrant communities, we have cultivated strong connections with top-tier talent across Europe. This enables us to provide unparalleled support to clients, particularly in fulfilling challenging and niche requirements.

JAVASCRIPT TEAM OVERVIEW

Distinguishing itself from the “Frontend” team, our JavaScript (JS) team operates on both ends of server-side development. This includes comprehensive support for frontend frameworks like React, Vue, and Angular, as well as delving into the intricacies of backend JavaScript through technologies such as Node.js and Express.Our team is well-versed in the full spectrum of JavaScript development, ensuring a holistic approach to meet diverse project requirements.

What people say about working with our Software Engineering Team…

  • The team at Wave are a pleasure to work with. They really made time to understand our requirements and their communication is fantastic - daily updates and chats via an external Slack channel connected into our organisation makes things very easy. They have also been very keen to fit in with our hiring processes and platforms too. I’m very pleased to say we’ve had some excellent candidates and hires as a result of our relationship.

  • I recently worked with Wave to fill a couple of Engineering roles at Echobox. The best thing about working with Wave Talent is their communication - daily status updates and prompt responses via Slack meant we were always in the loop about how things were going on both sides. They sent over well-qualified candidates who met our brief(s) perfectly. The time and effort dedicated to understanding the business and our requirements played a huge role in the incredible working pace. I would gladly collaborate with him and the team again.

  • Wave recruited multiple backend engineers for me at Habito and it was the most successful intake I’ve experienced. Wave quickly understood the importance of our values-based culture and sourced candidates that were an excellent match for the company. Always responsive and easy to work with. Highly recommend.

  • Working with Wave was a great experience for our team. We’ve worked with her on a few roles now, and each time she has brought us highly-qualified candidates extremely quickly. Additionally, she is very efficient at helping move candidates through our process in an organized way. We’re a relatively small company with no dedicated internal hiring and recruiting organization, but Elysia became a truly integrated part of our internal hiring team. We will definitely look to her again whenever we have staffing needs!

  • I wholeheartedly recommend Wave Talent for their exceptional work in championing diversity and inclusion, particularly through our collaborative efforts on our podcast series. Wave’s insightful discussions and thought-provoking interviews have been instrumental in raising awareness and promoting inclusivity. Their ability to amplify diverse voices through the podcast reflects her commitment to creating positive change. It’s been a pleasure working with Wave on this impactful project, and I believe their passion and expertise make them an outstanding advocate for diversity and inclusion in any professional setting.

  • I’ve worked with Wave closely over the past couple of weeks as a candidate for role. They were extremely helpful in providing a detailed and accurate description of the role itself and ensuring I was well prepared for every stage of the interview process. I was particularly impressed with how timely and thorough their communication was throughout, as well as being very warm and encouraging. I would definitely recommend Wave for anyone starting a new job search. Thank you for all your help!
