"The desire to learn and the concern of quality." But what does "develop" means? See what Antoine told us. The 20 years mark has passed, a bachelor's degree in computer science in hand, an internship at Easi as his first professional experience and, two years later, Antoine tells us his story as a developer. ## "I wanted to be pilot in the army" I wasn't going to study computer science, I wanted to be a pilot in the army! Unfortunately and despite my good results, I failed the last medical examination because of...my hay fever and a little asthma. Now what do I do? I remembered doing some development with tutorials to keep me busy when I was a kid. A few thoughts later I found myself studying computer science in Montignies. ## Developing is... The diploma as such defines nothing. There are many criteria, character traits that count in our profession. **Developing is loving to learn** and not relying on what you already master. Our environment changes very quickly. The most difficult thing is to take the time to learn a new language while we master others. That's what makes us evolve as a developer. During my internship I was developing in a language I didn't know, I hadn't studying it at school but challenge accepted. I became an iOS developer at Easi also because I am a fan of Apple. I was even able to participate in Apple's WWDC, an annual event for developers. *"We're developing in a new language, are you ready to learn it?"* **Developing also means thinking about others and aiming for quality.** We regularly work from a project perspective to develop a new module of the application. Each developer has a unique way of writing with a programming language and fingerprints within the same code multiply. It is therefore important to ensure that any other developer will be able to understand our code. This aspect allows a development to be maintained over the long term and to be flexible to change (adding modules such as a new code). ## Easi in three words? Dynamism. Performance. Recognition. ## A message for future Easi developers? Maybe you will join Easi as a first professional experience just like me. Not only work punctuates Easi's daily life, we also like to have fun in a good atmosphere and celebrate as soon as we can. This allows us to take a breath because we put a lot of effort into our work, we invest a lot. There's one last thing I'd like to tell you, will you dare to challenge me to kicker at lunchtime?[It starts here.](https://www.easi.net/en/jobs/software-engineer-web) [![New call-to-action](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/473564/28f58187-3474-4c47-a8df-19369cf4fca8.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/473564/28f58187-3474-4c47-a8df-19369cf4fca8)   [Easi](https://blog.easi.net/en/topic/easi?hsLang=en) [Job focus](https://blog.easi.net/en/topic/job-focus?hsLang=en) [Jobs](https://blog.easi.net/en/topic/jobs?hsLang=en) ## Current job openings [Junior Account Manager](https://www.easi.net/jobs/offers/job-junior-account-manager-leuven-nijvel-ghent) Leuven [Junior Business Consultant](https://www.easi.net/jobs/offers/job-junior-business-consultant-nivelles-leuven) Nivelles [Junior System Engineer](https://www.easi.net/jobs/offers/job-junior-system-engineer-louvain) Leuven ### Get our top stories in your inbox every month ## Follow us [![Share on Facebook](https://static.hubspot.com/final/img/common/icons/social/facebook-24x24.png)](http://www.facebook.com/easi.net) [![Share on LinkedIn](https://static.hubspot.com/final/img/common/icons/social/linkedin-24x24.png)](https://www.linkedin.com/company/easi) [![Share on Twitter](https://static.hubspot.com/final/img/common/icons/social/twitter-24x24.png)](https://twitter.com/easi_net) ## Recent posts ![Microsoft 365 Copilot Cowork: From AI Assistant to AI Coworker](https://blog.easi.net/hubfs/Copilot%20Cowork%20is%20now%20available%20-EN%20%286%29-1.png) ### [Microsoft 365 Copilot Cowork: From AI Assistant to AI Coworker](https://blog.easi.net/en/solutions/microsoft/copilot-cowork-is-now-available?hsLang=en) 14/03/2022 ![Microsoft 365 Archive goes file-level: how to cut SharePoint storage costs from July 2026](https://blog.easi.net/hubfs/Copilot%20Cowork%20is%20now%20available%20-EN%20%283%29.png) ### [Microsoft 365 Archive goes file-level: how to cut SharePoint storage costs from July 2026](https://blog.easi.net/en/solutions/microsoft/m365-archive-file-level?hsLang=en) 14/03/2022 ![GRC in Belgium: Why PROTECT Is Where Insight Becomes Action](https://blog.easi.net/hubfs/GRC%20in%20Belgi%C3%AB%20-%20Protect%20-%20EN%20%281%29.png) ### [GRC in Belgium: Why PROTECT Is Where Insight Becomes Action](https://blog.easi.net/en/solutions/security/grc-in-belgium-why-protect-is-where-insight-becomes-action?hsLang=en) 14/03/2022 ## Share this article [![Share on Facebook](https://static.hubspot.com/final/img/common/icons/social/facebook-24x24.png)](http://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fblog.easi.net%2Fen%2Fjob-focus-antoine-rucquoy-software-engineer%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Dfacebook) [![Share on LinkedIn](https://static.hubspot.com/final/img/common/icons/social/linkedin-24x24.png)](http://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https%3A%2F%2Fblog.easi.net%2Fen%2Fjob-focus-antoine-rucquoy-software-engineer%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Dlinkedin) [![Share on Twitter](https://static.hubspot.com/final/img/common/icons/social/twitter-24x24.png)](https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?original_referer=https%3A%2F%2Fblog.easi.net%2Fen%2Fjob-focus-antoine-rucquoy-software-engineer%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Dtwitter&url=https%3A%2F%2Fblog.easi.net%2Fen%2Fjob-focus-antoine-rucquoy-software-engineer%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Dtwitter&source=tweetbutton&text=Job%20focus%3A%20Antoine%20Rucquoy%2C%20Software%20Engineer) ### Never miss our stories ## Related articles [See all blog articles](https://blog.easi.net/en/tag/easi) ![Easi & Anidris: A shared ambition to become your 360° IT partner](https://blog.easi.net/hubfs/Design%20sans%20titre%20%2813%29.png) ### [Easi & Anidris: A shared ambition to become your 360° IT partner](https://blog.easi.net/en/easi-anidris-a-shared-ambition-to-become-your-360-it-partner?hsLang=en) The merger between Easi & Anidris marks a new milestone in Luxembourg’s IT sector, combining...
