Room for development
After starting as a trainee, Kolinda began working as a Software Engineer and was soon given the opportunity to help develop a completely new machine line. "I really wanted to experience the entire process," she says enthusiastically. "For the first three years, I was in a coordinating role, which meant I worked closely with service engineers. I was involved in everything from programming to arranging technical matters."
When the Product Owner left her team, the decision was quickly made: Kolinda took over the role. She has now been managing her own projects for three years. "It's great to be involved in both strategic work and supporting internal customers. Prioritizing tasks can sometimes be a challenge, but that's what makes my work so interesting."
One of the things Kolinda appreciates about Moba is the freedom to develop herself. "I was given every opportunity to do so," she explains. "And that support has helped me enormously to grow in my role as Product Owner." Outside of work, she continues to be creative. "I still paint, draw, and knit, and that helps me find a good balance between work and relaxation," she says with a smile.
Challenges that connect
As in any career, there were challenges. Kolinda recalls an incident at a customer's site where she and a service engineer had to solve a problem under intense pressure. "We asked the customer to take a break for lunch so that we could continue working in peace," she says. "In the end, we solved the problem, which was hugely satisfying."
She still experiences that same team spirit every day. "At Moba, we work closely together, and that really reinforces the feeling that you're not alone. Everyone is passionate about technology, and that's contagious."
Why Moba?
When asked why Moba is such a great employer, Kolinda is clear: "Here, we still do everything ourselves. That's unique. It offers a lot of variety, and the atmosphere is great. The flexibility to work from home, for example, is nice, but the short lines of communication within the company also make working here special."
For people considering applying for a job at Moba, she has a clear message: "Go for it! Here, you work on long-term projects lasting several years, with clear standards. It's not a start-up, but that's what makes it interesting. It's a technologically advanced company where you can really make a difference."
