Possible exciting projects:

• The transformation of our existing application forms into an application portal that communicates via API with our Salesforce Org.
• The redesign of our website incl. alignment of the tech stack with our other IT landscape.
• The creation of smaller useful web applications, for example, to calculate the potential tax benefit of the ISA.
