We create products that inspire people to be better. We are looking for a Chief Technology Officer (CTO) who can lead the development of our products with the best possible engineering quality and professionalism.

Who We Are:
Integrative Enneagram Solutions (IES) is an innovative SW-developer and provider of Enneagram products for individual, team and organisational development solutions.

Our adaptive, intelligent questionnaire integrates the art and science of self-discovery with cutting-edge technology.

What drives us at IES is understanding what makes people tick. We value knowledge, honesty, connectedness, pioneering, generosity and awesomeness. Our products help people to discover this in themselves, so that they can live more meaningful lives. This is reflected in the way we treat our employees and clients – we make an effort to connect and get to know your authentic self. We’re curious about each other and about learning individually and collectively. We are aware that each of us has different strengths, passions, quirks, and areas of development, and we approach these differences with compassion. If this isn’t enough to keep you stimulated, we have really good coffee and lots of it!
