IDE Engineer @ VirtusLab

We are #VLteam – tech enthusiasts constantly striving for growth. The team is our foundation, that’s why we care the most about the friendly atmosphere, a lot of self-development opportunities and good working conditions. Trust and autonomy are two essential qualities that drive our performance. We simply believe in the idea of ​​“measuring outcomes, not hours”. Join us & see for yourself!

Project scope :

We are helping JetBrains develop various IDEs and core plugins from their ecosystem. Most of the projects are similar – implementing support for various languages and technologies like PHP or Ruby using the JetBrains platform, based on Kotlin, Java, and Swing. The work requires going deep into the given technology (e.g. Ruby) to create and maintain functionalities in the IDE

Tech stack :

The plugin is primarily written in Kotlin, with some legacy Java code. The IDEs use a customised version of Swing, and the code often uses Kotlin coroutines. Each IDE / plugin requires integration with specific technology (e.g. Rails for RubyMind,) but most of the work is done in Kotlin / Java code

Challenges :

You’ll need to understand and implement support for various features within the JetBrains environment, ensure IDE / plugin stability, and maintain a smooth user experience. Working with legacy code and contributing clean architecture will also be key

Team :

You will join the core team responsible for the given IDE / plugin. You will interact with external contributors and users

• 5+ years of experience in Kotlin or Java development
• Good understanding of concurrency, preferably Kotlin Coroutines
• Experience with extending IDEs or any GUI Java frameworks
• Experience with working on a compiler or code analysis tools is a plus
• English at B2 level or higher
• Passion for improving developer tools and open-source software

Don’t worry if you don’t meet all the requirements. What matters most is your passion and willingness to develop. Moreover, B2B does not have to be the only form of cooperation. Apply and find out!
