About CodeGuild

We believe that software development deserves calm, strength, and precision. That's why at CodeGuild, we recruit better backend, frontend, and cloud engineers – for permanent positions, within tech-first companies in the Netherlands where software is truly central. Our main focus is on the JVM ecosystem. For developers: Are you an experienced Java, Kotlin, or Scala developer and finding it hard to navigate the job market? We know the Dutch JVM market ecosystem in detail: the companies, teams, tech stacks, architectures – and especially: the cultural differences. We screen companies just as rigorously as candidates, so you don't waste time with interviews that aren't a good fit. With us, there's no sales pressure or slick talk, but people who are technically proficient, understand you substantively, and advise you on where your expertise and passions will best be realized. For managers: You're not looking for CVs. You're looking for a developer who fits your team, your architecture, and your ambitions. We speak daily with developers from the top 5% of the market. Thanks to our technical depth, market knowledge, and 20+ years of experience, we know exactly which candidate will stay long, show ownership, and deliver value. No flood of CVs. No questionable matches. Instead, sharp screening on 20 red flags, an 8+ candidate standard, and concrete results: 81% of our placed developers are still working for our clients after 3 years. Whether you are an engineer or building a team – CodeGuild helps you choose what truly fits.
