AI at Qonto
We see AI as a catalyst for our success 👉🏻 "AI at Qonto - Vision Statement"
We always choose thinking over routine. That's why AI is already deeply embedded in how we work - not as a trend, but as a way to raise the bar for the entrepreneurs who count on us. That is why we grant our Qontoers unlimited access to the best AI tools on the market - Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Dust, and Notion AI.
We want people who experiment without waiting for permission. Who push AI beyond the obvious. Who know when to trust it and, more importantly, when to question it.
Already pushing AI limits? You'll fit right in.

🏅About You
To succeed as a Frontend Engineer at Qonto, you will need to demonstrate:
1. Proficiency in frontend engineering: you have at least three years of professional experience using React.JS or Ember.JS, as well as HTML and CSS. We don’t use CSS libraries such as Tailwind, so you will need to know how to react pure CSS.
2. Attention to detail: you strive for excellence in every aspect of your job. You don’t gloss over minor issues and you understand that great work is the accumulation of many small things done right.
3. Communication skills: you explain your thoughts in a clear, organized, concise and accurate manner.
4. AI fluency & good judgment: you can leverage AI to move faster (research, writing, coding, testing) while staying critical, validating outputs, and protecting the product’s reliability and user trust
At Qonto we understand that true diversity isn't just about ticking boxes on a hiring checklist. Apply regardless of the boxes you tick! Who knows? You may have the missing piece of the puzzle we've been searching for all along.
