Role Overview π As a Software Developer in our FPS Foundations team, you'll work almost entirely on backend development (90%+), with occasional, light frontend involvement. The team owns the foundational components and services that the rest of the platform is built on, such as the core frameworks, the user and company data domain, and the APIs and platform services that every other team depends on. Reliability, data integrity and security are central to everything the team delivers. This role is focused on turning business and architectural needs into well-built, maintainable systems: designing clean APIs, evolving long-lived frameworks safely, and helping share knowledge across our internal developer community. You'll also help shape our ways of working and technical direction. You'll join a focused team of engineers working alongside a tech lead, a product manager and an engineering manager in Gothenburg. We are also on a journey to use AI more deliberately in our daily engineering work. We are looking for someone who has practical experience with AI-assisted and agentic coding workflows, or who wants to keep exploring how these tools can help us move faster, improve quality, understand complex codebases, and reduce repetitive work without lowering our engineering standards. Responsibilities π€ Design, build and maintain backend services, APIs and shared frameworks to a high standard. Evolve and progressively refactor a large, long-lived codebase safely. Treat non-functional qualities such as reliability, backward compatibility, data integrity, security and performance as high priority. Collaborate closely with developers, product managers, and other stakeholders, working with domain experts to keep solutions aligned with the business. Participate in code reviews and uphold shared coding standards. Write automated integration and component tests. Help drive technical decisions, reduce technical debt, and document and share knowledge so critical areas aren't held by one person. Responsibilities π€ Develop backend services and maintain high coding standards. Contribute to frontend changes using JavaScript and TypeScript when needed. Collaborate with developers, product own
