Job description

SAVR is a fast-growing Swedish fintech company on a mission to reinvent investing. We empower investors with a platform that offers lower fees, greater transparency, and a radically improved experience.

We’re not just building another investment service — we’re reimagining how financial products should work for people, not just institutions. As part of our ambitious, innovative and curious team, you’ll help shape the future of investing in Sweden and beyond.

The Role

As a Senior Platform Engineer at SAVR, you will be part of our tech organization helping build and evolve the next generation investment platform.

Your primary focus will be on designing, improving and operating our cloud platform, enabling our engineering teams to build, deploy and run services efficiently and securely. While this role is centred around infrastructure and platform engineering, you\'ll occasionally contribute to backend services and integrations where it creates the most value.

You\'ll collaborate closely with Software Engineers, Data Scientists, Product Designers and Product Managers to build scalable solutions and continuously improve our developer experience.

Our infrastructure is built on AWS and managed through Terraform, with CI/CD powered by GitHub Actions, alongside some GCP and a handful of third-party services. Our services are built in Kotlin, PHP and Python and run on ECS, with data in Aurora, PostgreSQL and Snowflake.

As we continue to grow, so does the need for a cloud platform that is reliable, secure, observable and enjoyable to build on—and that\'s where you come in.

Your Mission

• Own and evolve our AWS platform, including networking, infrastructure as code, deployment pipelines, observability, backups, cloud governance and cost optimization.

• Drive technical improvements across cloud architecture, CI/CD, automation, developer experience and operational tooling, reducing toil through smart tooling and abstractions.

• Collaborate closely with engineering teams to build cloud-native solutions, integrations and infrastructure that enable product development.

• Support backend teams with infrastructure expertise and occasionally contribute to application development when needed.

• Monitor, troubleshoot and optimize cloud environments for performance, reliability, security and cost efficiency.

• Foster our learning culture by actively participating in feedback sessions, both receiving and providing constructive feedback on code and infrastructure changes.

You’ll Thrive in This Role If You...

• Are a Platform Engineer or Software Engineer with strong experience building and operating cloud platforms.

• Have solid experience with AWS, Terraform, CI/CD, Docker, ECS and/or EKS, and observability tooling.

• Have 5+ years of professional experience designing, building and operating cloud-based systems in production environments.

• Enjoy working in a startup environment where you can take ownership, solve a wide range of technical challenges and collaborate across disciplines.

• Care about automation, operational excellence and building reliable systems that scale.

• Have some backend development experience and enjoy working closely with application engineers.

• Are fluent in English and either hold Swedish citizenship or a valid EU work permit (visa sponsorship is unfortunately not available).

Our Cultural DNA

Open-minded – we embrace new ideas, diverse perspectives, and continuous learning

Bold – we take smart risks, move fast, and aren’t afraid to fail forward

Honest – we value transparency, feedback, and doing the right thing

We’re a startup, so things can be a little messy — and that’s part of the thrill. If you thrive in building as a team and handling uncertainty, you will fit right in.

What’s In It for You

You’ll join a product- and design-driven company where your work has real impact. We keep things lean, move fast, and genuinely care about the experience we deliver — for customers and for each other.

Here’s what we offer:

• Top-tier work gear

• Competitive salary

• Generous wellness allowance

• Insurance package

• Occupational pension and long-term savings support

• Office-first approach to foster collaboration and quick decision-making — with flexibility when you need it (4+1)

• Stocked pantry, plus regular social gatherings and wellness activities to keep energy and culture high

Our Commitment to Diversity

SAVR is an equal opportunity employer. We welcome people from all backgrounds, identities, and experiences. We believe diverse teams build better products and are committed to creating an inclusive workplace where everyone can thrive.
