Role Overview 🚀

As a Software Developer in the team, you will primarily focus on backend development (80–90%) while occasionally contributing to frontend improvements.

You’ll work closely with two other developers, a product manager, and an engineering manager in Gothenburg.

The team is responsible for a service that generates reports for customers, based on changes related to employee benefits and users. The Product & Engineering department in Gothenburg consists of about 80 people, giving you the benefits of a strong local tech community while still having a small, focused team where your input matters.

The role involves translating business ideas into technical solutions, maintaining high coding standards, and driving improvements in efficiency and scalability. You’ll also play a key role in shaping ways of working and technical strategy in a collaborative environment.

AI is an integrated part of our daily workflow, not a side experiment. We use tools like Claude Code and similar agent-based assistants to write, refactor, and review code, and we continuously evolve how we work as the tools get better. The goal isn't to replace engineering craft — it's to let our developers spend their time on what actually requires judgment: architecture, technical decisions, and quality. We expect you to be curious about how AI can amplify your work and want to help shape how the team uses it.

Responsibilities 🤘

• Develop backend services and maintain high coding standards.

• Contribute to frontend changes using JavaScript and TypeScript when needed.

• Collaborate with developers, product owners, UX designers, and other stakeholders.

• Participate in code reviews and uphold team coding standards.

• Implement automated integration and component tests.

• Drive technical strategy, refactor legacy code, and reduce technical debt.

• Engage in pair and mob programming sessions to solve the more complex problems together.

• Actively use and evaluate AI tooling in the development workflow, and share what works

What are we looking for? 🔎

• Strong experience in Java, SQL, and Spring/Spring Boot.

• Solid understanding of Git and CI/CD pipelines.

• Familiarity with JavaScript and TypeScript for occasional frontend work.

• A developer who enjoys applying Domain-Driven Design (DDD) in practice, working closely with domain experts to build well-aligned, maintainable systems.

• Proven experience working across varied systems and environments, with hands-on exposure to multiple architectural styles - including both monolithic and microservices.

• A person who thrives in a team that values collaboration (often together in the office), works closely through pair and mob programming when needed, communicates openly, constructively challenges ideas, and enjoys discussing solutions from different perspectives.

• Are curious about AI-driven workflows — whether you already use them daily or are keen to get started

• Value code quality and can think critically about what AI suggests

Bonus points for:

• Experience with Docker, Kubernetes, and Pub/Sub systems (e.g., RabbitMQ, NATS).

• Knowledge of Hibernate, Grafana, and monitoring tools.

• Familiarity with Domain-Driven Design principles.

• API development experience (OpenAPI, AsyncAPI).

Please note: Our recruitment process will begin in mid-to-late August, once the hiring team has returned from their summer holidays. We appreciate your patience and look forward to reviewing your application.
