Job description

Want to be part of transforming road freight? Einride is showing the world a new way to move, based on the latest digital, autonomous and electric technologies. We build the technology that hauls freight efficiently, and we put it to work for the world's leading manufacturers, retailers, logistics providers and defense organizations, all working toward a future where moving goods cost less for our customers, and less for the planet.

Founded in 2016, Einride became the first company in the world to deploy a cab-less autonomous electric vehicle on a public road (Sweden, 2019). In 2022, we were the first to successfully operate such a vehicle on a U.S. public road. In June 2026, Einride became a publicly listed company on Nasdaq, a milestone that reflects a decade of turning what once looked like science fiction into everyday reality. Today, our technology moves freight across North America, Europe, and the Middle East for some of the world's biggest shippers.

Saga is Einride's freight management platform for electric transport. The Platform Engineering team owns the foundation it's built on: authentication, authorization, user management, and the developer tooling that lets our product teams ship fast and safely. Every part of Saga rests on this platform, so when it works well, the whole organization moves faster and the transport industry electrifies sooner.

We're looking for a Software Engineer who measures success by how much faster everyone else can move. You'll build the foundations other teams depend on, and you'll care that they're simple, reliable, and a pleasure to use.

You will:

• Build and operate the internal platform Saga runs on: authentication (OAuth2, SAML), authorization (ReBAC), user management, and developer tooling.
• Build the foundations for AI-driven interaction with Saga — the APIs, tooling, and access controls that let agents and AI tools work with the platform safely.
• Work in Go, gRPC and Google Cloud Platform. See our Backend Tech Radar for the full stack.
• Reduce friction for other product teams: improve paved paths and shape how we ship.
• Ship to production several times a day in an empowered team that owns what it builds.
• Partner with the security team so that the platform stays secure and stays easy to build on.

We expect you to:

• Have a few years of backend development experience and a habit of picking up new concepts and domains.
• Collaborate closely with product, design and stakeholders to help shape problems and not just implement solutions
• Have a high ownership mentality and be capable of driving initiatives from idea to delivery
• Stay curious about the latest AI models and tools, using them to increase your own speed and impact and to improve what we build.
• Care about platform and developer-experience work, including reliability, while staying hands-on.
• Have a working understanding of authentication and authorization systems.
• Be comfortable translating business processes into system design (e.g. Domain-Driven Design).
• Go experience is a strong plus, not a requirement.

This is a full-time position based in Stockholm. We recommend that you submit your application as soon as possible since selection and interviews are held continually.

Please note that as part of our standard recruitment process, we conduct a background control on the final candidate for this role. This may include verification of education, employment history, any relevant professional certifications or other information that may be of our interest.
