This is NCIM. We build software for Defence, NATO and the Dutch government. Serious work, always a pleasure. Since 1988.





NCIM is no ordinary IT company. We're a tight-knit team of 55 and we work on long-term assignments for the Ministry of Defence, NATO, the NFI and the Dutch central government. The work is serious and the stakes are often real, but we always take it on with a smile.
There's always something to join in on: we catch up at the Friday afternoon drinks, play padel after work, build our own 6502 processor, battle our way through Mudmasters and keep the toastie maker working overtime. And every year the whole team heads off somewhere together: Bletchley Park last year, CERN this year.
Because we're small enough to really know one another, the lines are short. Your manager isn't a sales manager but a fellow engineer who spars with you every other week. And you talk to management just as easily as to your own team.
Our engineers will tell you themselves.
I joined NCIM as a developer and soon wanted more ownership. I found it as Technical Lead on an internal Defence project: not a standard enterprise application, but software that really mattered. The project grew, and I grew with it.
I'm now CTO. No two weeks look the same. One week at the office in The Hague, the next at a barracks or on-site abroad. That variety, and the awareness that the stakes are real, are what make working at NCIM so rewarding for me.

I found it at NCIM. I now build mission-critical software with Angular, .NET and Kubernetes at the Ministry of Defence. We go to the barracks to talk to end users. For them, the technology simply has to work reliably and make sense.

My career began on the chessboard and the football pitch: recognizing patterns, thinking ahead and keeping the big picture in view. That strategic, analytical thinking is what I now bring to building mission-critical software.
I recognized my own down-to-earth streak at NCIM straight away. Everyone's approachable and pulls their weight, and I get room to push my limits. Soon I start as Product Owner at the Ministry of Defence.

At NCIM I now work on autonomy and mission-critical software as a full-stack engineer, with a soft spot for UX. Colleagues sometimes call me the 'designer of NCIM'. And as a Principal Consultant I help others progress in their careers, because the lines here are short.

Curious?
We're looking for Java and .NET engineers, from medior to senior, who want more than standard IT: people who get genuinely excited about software that matters, for clients most engineers never get near.
No complicated procedures. Just drop Jessy a message on LinkedIn, by email or via WhatsApp and we'll take it from there.
