I believe, since it's a recruitment poster, the translation is "We seek programmers for a great mission."

Qu' = mission
Dun = to be great
-vaD = for
ghun = to program
-wI' = one who does
DI- = we — them
Sam = to seek

Translating the website (search up Castra Sweden), it seems to be an IT consultant/management place (that has a lot of sci-fi references from Star Wars/Star Trek), so this is probably the best and most accurate translation. Good job on your Klingon! You are a glorious warrior, unlike me!

I'm not getting Sam? The transliteration looks right, but I don't see it in the dictionary.

ChatGPT is pretty good at translating Klingon.
