How we work
The market shifts and so do we. As of today, there are two ways to build with zendev and our partners.
Work with zendev
Work with zendev + ICA
Choose what fits
ICA is one part of what we do, and an important one. It’s a long-term, stable collaboration where you work as part of ICA’s own teams, so it gets its own section further down.
The rest of the page is everything else zendev is: the clients and industries we build for, our own products, and the benefits of working here.
IT COUNTRY PARTNER FOR B&H
We’ve partnered with ICA, one of Scandinavia’s largest brands, as IT Country Partner in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
We’re hiring 100+ engineers, designers, and specialists for a long-term collaboration supporting ICA across retail, banking, and insurance operations.
Life at zendev
We have working hours, but we’re not rigid about them. What matters is that the work is good and that you’ve got room to live your life around it. The benefits below follow from that. Some help with money, some with time, some just take a small annoyance off your week.
WHAT PEOPLE VALUE THE MOST
Work where you want, handle life when it happens.
Office, home, or a mix, and you can switch day to day.
Hours are flexible too, so the morning that gets eaten by the dentist, paperwork at the opština, or a kindergarten pickup isn’t a problem.
Step out, sort it, make up the time later. We track the quality of your work, not the minutes you sat at a desk.
THE DIVIDEND SHARE
When the owners take a dividend, half of that amount is split across the team. The longer you’ve been here, the larger your part. The size moves with the years. Usually, for newest employees it’s a nice end-of-year bonus, enough to book a trip or finally fix things around the house. For longtime members, it’s the kind of sum that can help you plan for bigger things.
Time off
20 days of paid vacation, plus public and religious holidays. We want you to use all of it. A proper break is the expectation here, not something you apologize for booking.
5 days set aside for religious holidays, open to everyone. Mark your own, join someone else’s, or just take the day. No one’s checking what you believe or when.
If you’re unwell, you’re covered. No doctor’s note for the first two days, so a 24-hour bug doesn’t turn into paperwork.
Paid leave for the things life puts in front of you: getting married, a new baby, moving house, or being there when family needs you.
FAMILY
A 1000 KM bonus when you have a baby, plus a baby gift to welcome them. A small help for the sleep-short early days.
Your canton pays part of your maternity leave, and zendev adds the rest, so the two together come to 70% of your base salary. That holds for the full first year, until your child’s first birthday, wherever you live.
Every year we throw a New Year party for the team’s kids, with a gift for each of them. The little ones get their moment too.
Growth
No fixed training budget to ration out, and no one-size course catalogue. When there’s something that would make you better at your job, a course, a certification, an online platform, a book, you ask for it. Reasonable requests get a yes. The point is to support the learning you’ll use, not tick a box once a year.
The little extras
Company flats in Mostar and Sarajevo, mostly for work trips. When they’re free, they’re yours to use, at no cost.
A FitPass membership, so you can train wherever suits you, gyms, pools, classes, across the country, instead of being tied to one place.
Waiting for you on day one. Some zendev gear, a few useful bits, and a taste of both sides of the company, Swedish candy and Bosnian coffee.
Once a year, something from us to the whole team. Whatever we’ve come up with that year.
Company trips, workshops, sports, and the kind of get-togethers where you actually get to know the people you work with.
Coffee, snacks, a decent office, the bits you’d expect anywhere. We’re just not going to pretend they’re the reason you’d join.
