In a nutshell
Picnic has a variety of internal Angular applications to support the work that we do delivering groceries to customers - from efficiently managing our warehouse processes to ensuring that we order the right amount of products to meet demand, there’s always something important to work on. Don’t worry, you won’t be alone - you’ll work closely with product owners, designers and backend developers to craft the right tools for the job. During our monthly Angular guild meetings you will have the chance to meet with Angular developers from other teams across Picnic to share knowledge and discuss relevant topics.
