Who we are

InnoWorks is a small, sharp AI consultancy based in the Netherlands. We help B2B companies cut through operational chaos with custom AI software, web apps, workflow automations, and AI-powered tools that actually get used.

We're not an agency that sells decks and disappears. We work in retainers, take ownership of outcomes, and build long-term partnerships with our clients. Everything we build lives in the client's business context.

Small team. High standards. No nonsense.

The role

We work on multiple client projects simultaneously, each requiring a mix of frontend, backend, and AI integration. You'd work directly with the founders on scoped deliverables, either as a recurring freelancer or on a per-project basis.

There's no junior-vs-senior barrier here. What matters is how independently you can take a problem and ship a solution.

What you'll actually build

  • Custom web apps with authentication, dashboards, and client-specific business logic
  • AI-powered features using the OpenAI or Anthropic APIs, document processing, assistants, agents
  • Backend logic and database design with PostgreSQL / Supabase
  • Workflow automations that connect systems and eliminate manual work
  • Clean, maintainable codebases that the client or we can extend later

The stack

Core, you should be comfortable here

  • Next.js
  • TypeScript
  • React
  • PostgreSQL
  • Supabase
  • OpenAI API / Anthropic API

Nice to have, bonus, not required

  • GCP
  • n8n / Make
  • Docker
  • LangChain
  • Tailwind CSS
  • REST / Webhooks

What we're looking for

You are

  • Able to take a brief and run with it independently
  • Honest about what you know and what you don't
  • Comfortable with ambiguity, client projects rarely come fully spec'd
  • Fast when you need to be, thorough when it matters
  • Genuinely interested in AI, not just the hype

Experience

  • You've shipped something real, show us, not just a GitHub full of half-finished repos
  • Any level is welcome if the work speaks for itself
  • Freelance background is a plus, you know how to scope, estimate, and deliver
  • You communicate clearly in English (Dutch is a bonus)

Not a fit if you

  • Need a fully spec’d ticket for every task
  • Can't estimate your own work or flag blockers early
  • Think “I’ll do it with AI” is the answer to everything
  • Are looking for a passive side gig, we move fast and expect the same

What you get

  • Real problems to solve, no toy projects, no internal tools no one uses
  • Direct collaboration with the founders, short feedback loops, clear decisions
  • Flexible structure, project-based, no rigid hours or unnecessary standups
  • Competitive freelance rate, discussed per project based on scope
  • Potential to grow into a recurring role as we scale

Apply

Send a short intro, what you're best at, and something you've shipped. No cover letter needed, just be direct. We'll reply within a few days.

The application process

No CV bingo. Just show us what you can do.

We don’t look at CVs full of buzzwords. We want to see what you can do.

  1. 01

    Send something in

    A short email or LinkedIn message. What you have done, why you want this work, and ideally a link to something you are proud of (GitHub, side project, blog or little script, does not matter).

  2. 02

    Intro chat

    Half an hour over coffee in Enschede or online, to see whether it clicks on both sides.

  3. 03

    Trial assignment

    A task that resembles our actual work. Not to filter you out with a trick, but to see how you work, think and communicate along the way.

  4. 04

    Closing conversation

    With Tijn and Twan. Does it feel right on both sides? Then we arrange the rest within a week.
