Job description

Cloudpoint Oy is one of Finland's leading experts in Google Cloud services and application development. The company serves municipalities, educational institutions, organizations, and companies - over 170 municipalities and hundreds of organizations. Cloudpoint builds secure, functional, and accessible digital environments that support learning and work throughout Finland.

Cloudpoint Oy is now looking for an APPLICATION DEVELOPER to grow into a lead developer for AI-assisted product development. Work starts as soon as possible by agreement.

We are looking for a delivery-responsible developer to build and maintain a cloud-native, multi-tenant SaaS platform for the education sector. At Cloudpoint, code is produced with AI assistance, which changes the traditional software developer role: we are not looking for a coder who knows the syntax of a specific programming language by heart, but a project-level thinker who wants to grow into a product-responsible lead developer.

Your role and responsibilities:

• Lead the project lifecycle: design, implementation, release, and maintenance
• Break down broad and vague requirements into clear, deliverable parts
• Prioritize and scope work according to business goals
• Communicate actively about obstacles, risks, and schedules
• Take end-to-end ownership from architecture to production

Technical landscape:

• Cloud platforms: Google Cloud Platform (GCP) - experience with other clouds (AWS, Azure) and a willingness to learn is sufficient
• API architecture: Design and integration of own and third-party APIs
• Directory services: Modern cloud-based identity and access management solutions (e.g., Google Workspace, Microsoft Entra ID)
• Node.js: Strong Node.js expertise, ability to debug and improve AI-generated code
• Infrastructure as Code: Basics of Terraform
• Containers and releases: Docker, Cloud Build
• Frontend: Experience with a modern SPA framework (Vue, React, or Angular)
• Security: Security-conscious software development practices and understanding of multi-tenant environments

Working style and attitude:

• Guide AI as your pair programmer and critically evaluate its outputs
• Not afraid to jump into new technologies and see challenges as opportunities to learn
• Communicate proactively and take responsibility for the whole
• Curious, self-directed, and wanting to grow in your role

Plus (speeds up onboarding, not mandatory):

• Knowledge of CI/CD pipelines (Bitbucket Pipelines, Cloud Build)
• Experience with multi-tenant SaaS architecture
• Understanding of ETL/data pipelines (Apache Beam, Cloud Dataflow)
• Basics of Python
• Knowledge of the EdTech industry
• Finnish language skills

Salary and working model:

• Starting salary: €4,000 - €4,500/month based on experience
• Career path: Salary and responsibilities grow with your expertise and success
• Remote work: Established practice, but regular presence at the Malmi office is required
• Education: We support the development of cloud certifications and other expertise
