Your profile

We are looking for you with a strong interest in programming and system design. You have several years of work experience but you are no stranger to testing new solutions and technologies. You thrive in a work environment where tasks may vary and goals may change, and you are a team player who helps a colleague even if it is outside your specific task. You can work under your own responsibility and take your own initiatives.

We see it as meritorious if you have a technical hobby project. Maybe you are building your own electric skateboard or you have filled your entire home with unnecessarily complicated automations that run from a server in the closet? Maybe you contribute to open source projects on github? Feel free to tell us about a hobby project in your personal letter!

Requirements:

• Bachelor's degree in computer science or similar
• At least 5 years of experience in backend development or systems development
• Very good knowledge of Rust (Tauri experience is a plus)
• Good knowledge of communication with hardware and real-time protocols, preferably MAVLink and zenoh
• Knowledge of system design and architecture at the application and network level
• Basic understanding of frontend (JavaScript/TypeScript) and how it integrates with backend
• You are used to developing in a Linux environment and with Docker
• Experience with Git, CI/CD and automated testing

Meritorious:

• Experience with distributed systems or edge computing
• Background in maritime, autonomous or defense-related systems
• Knowledge of network protocols, routing, or network-level security solutions
• Interest in system monitoring, logging and troubleshooting in distributed environments

General requirements:

• You must be a Swedish citizen.
• You will be living or in the process of moving to Stockholm
• You must pass a security check.
• You must be prepared to travel for the position both within and outside Sweden.
