Expat centerwhat people say about us
"Since I joined Competa I’ve worked on several projects at KLM. For a while I was also tech lead internally at Competa, sharing my experiences with colleagues and newcomers. Programming has been my passion since middle school, and I joined the web development industry around 2012. Having a classic computer science education, I’m applying fundamental software development approaches no matter which JS-framework is on hype today. My main goal is to train developers to master clean, bug-less, well-tested, scalable code that satisfies end-customer needs."

"As an Expat, Competa IT has offered me access to the Dutch tech market and made settling in The Netherlands much easier than I was expecting. It is a friendly company with an international outlook that is helping me to grow my career further. With their focus on high quality technology and deep knowledge of the Dutch IT market I have been able to thrive with them."

Tech lead | Software Architect, ANWB
"It’s been almost six years since I started at Competa as an intern who didn’t even know what Git was. Since then Competa has helped me build a solid all-round foundation for the rest of my career. I’ve done front-end, back-end, data engineering and a bit of dev-ops. If you want to learn something here, you will definitely get the opportunity to do so. Now that I’ve got all of the basics down I’ve been specialising in the techniques that I’ve been enjoying the most. I’m sure that if I ever get bored of those there will always be the possibility to do something else here. And even though the nature of our work means being outsourced, there are tons of awesome after-work events that keep us in touch!"

"I've worked with Competa for 3 years. Those years were the best in my career. Competa helped me to reveal my coding skills and I contributed to development for big companies in the Netherlands. Competa's meetup's gave me a brilliant possibility being a public speaker. Thank you very much Competa and I will miss you!"
