Job description

What You’ll Be Doing

As part of our cross‑functional team, you’ll design, develop, and maintain secure, scalable applications in a cloud‑based, microservice‑oriented environment. You’ll collaborate closely with product owners, designers, and fellow engineers to continuously improve our platforms and deliver high‑quality user experiences.

Tech Stack

We work in a modern .NET environment:

• .NET and C# for backend development
• Microservices communicating via RabbitMQ and REST APIs
• Azure, Kubernetes, and Docker for cloud infrastructure
• GitHub and GitHub Actions for source control and CI/CD (currently migrating from Azure DevOps)
• Angular and TypeScript on the frontend (occasional interaction expected)
• AI‑assisted development with GitHub Copilot and Claude Code as part of our everyday workflow

Who You Are

More than anything, we’re looking for the right person. Solid technical experience matters. You’ll need a strong background in .NET, cloud (ideally Azure), and modern backend development. The bigger signal is how you work and learn. You want to understand why something works, spot problems, and bring ideas forward.

You’re already using AI in daily development or you’re eager to learn how to maximize it. You like sharing what you know and learn eagerly from others. You can explain technical decisions to product owners, designers, and non‑engineers clearly, and you take feedback seriously. Experience from financial services is a plus.

Benefits

You’ll have ownership and impact across a broad range of applications and systems. As a challenger bank, decisions move faster, and engineers have a direct voice. We believe in an office‑first culture with flexibility to balance work and life. You’ll get access to ongoing training and professional development and work on problems that matter.

Key Requirements

• Valid work permit for Sweden.
• Experience in .NET and cloud (Azure) backend development.
• Experience with microservices, RabbitMQ, REST APIs.
• Knowledge of AI‑assisted dev tools (GitHub Copilot, Claude Code).
• Strong communication skills and willingness to learn.
• Financial services experience is a plus, not required.

Commitment to Inclusivity

We value each candidate based on skills and experience. No need to include a photo in your application.
