JavaScript Job: Full Stack Developer

To strengthen our EU R&D team, we are currently looking for a full-stack developer to help us work on multiple projects/products:

Project #1: Maintenance and extension of a Visual Studio Code plugin that enables maintaining COBOL code while compiling, running and debugging C#. Part of the project will be the development, in C#, of a Debug Server that enables debugging C# code while viewing COBOL. The conversion of COBOL to C# is already fully automated and is not part of this project.

Project #2: Creation of a full SPA front-end based on vanilla JavaScript (i.e. no frameworks) for a new REST API that exposes analysis data. This project will be a POC initially.

Project #3: Maintenance of an existing JavaScript library that enables offering a 3270-terminal emulator experience in the browser.
