Job description

Are you looking for technical ownership, modern technologies, and the opportunity to work with cloud and AI solutions?

We are looking for an experienced Software & AI Development Architect to become a central part of our continued digital development. With direct reference to our AI Lead, you will join our Business Development department, which consists of five dedicated colleagues focused on innovation, digital solutions, ESG, and business development.

With us, you will have the opportunity to work with modern technologies, complex solutions, and business-critical systems while enjoying a high degree of freedom, responsibility, and influence on the technical direction.

Your role

In this newly established role as our new Software & AI Development Architect, you will be responsible for RIIS’ tech stack for future AI and Software development initiatives — from traditional AI to GenAI. You will play a key role in developing and defining our technology stack, platforms, internal tools, and integration solutions. You will take responsibility for backend, frontend, databases, cloud infrastructure, and software architecture while serving as an important sparring partner in both technical and business-related decisions.

You will work in the Business Development team on digitalization, automation, and the development of solutions that support both the business and the company’s strategic focus areas, including data-driven processes.

You thrive in hands-on development but are also motivated by taking ownership, creating structure, and building robust solutions that make a real impact across the organization.

Your responsibilities

• Develop modern full-stack solutions
• Design and build APIs, services, and integrations
• Work with cloud platforms and deployment pipelines
• Ensure high quality through code reviews, testing, and CI/CD
• Be responsible for software architecture, performance, and security
• Translate business needs into technical solutions
• Define technical standards and best practices
• Work with new technologies within AI, automation, and data-driven solutions

We imagine that you

You have solid experience with modern software development and naturally work across both backend and frontend technologies. You take ownership of your solutions, value quality and scalability, and enjoy translating business needs into technical solutions.

As a person, you work independently while also valuing collaboration and knowledge sharing within a small team with high professional standards, a strong sense of responsibility, and flexibility.

Become part of the family

At RIIS Retail A/S, you become part of a family-owned company with a dynamic organization, open doors, and room to take initiative. Here, your ideas are welcomed, and you will be close to both decisions and the people who make them.

We offer attractive terms, strong employee benefits, and a social workplace with fitness facilities, group training, staff events, and plenty of opportunities to connect with colleagues.

Do you want to support RIIS’ growth and help increase quality across our company?

We look forward to hearing from you.
