We're a dynamic team where you can shape the future, ship groundbreaking solutions, and scale your abilities in many different ways.

We have a proven track record: 400M+ total app downloads 50M+ monthly active users Backends handling tens of thousands of requests per second Globally recognized, multi-market applications The office in Stockholm is our default workplace, but we stay flexible when working from home makes sense for the team or the project. We trust each other to coordinate and keep things professional. Most of our work is built in Kotlin, Go, and TypeScript, and we aim to pick the tools that best fit each project so our teams can focus on delivering the right solution. The role is broad but centered on backend. You'll work on projects for both Swedish and international companies, including systems that integrate external services, automation, and frontend clients. As a Senior Backend Developer, your role will involve: Building high-performance backend systems in Go, Kotlin, TypeScript (Node.js), or Python, depending on the project. Working with frameworks such as Ktor, Fiber, and NestJS. Designing cloud-native systems with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform) across AWS, GCP, and Azure. Developing robust data models and database architectures to support application requirements. Building observable systems with the right metrics, logs, tracing, and alerting to understand and operate what we ship.

Who You Are: 5+ years of experience building and running backend services in production. Comfortable owning a system end to end, from API design to deployment and operations. Strong in at least one of our core languages (Kotlin, Go, or TypeScript), and willing to pick up others as projects demand. Experience making technical decisions on a team: weighing tradeoffs, reviewing code, and mentoring peers. A product mindset: You think about maintainability, user impact, and long-term health, not just the ticket in front of you.

Whether you're taking care of your family, your pets, or yourself, we're committed to supporting a healthy balance that respects your needs.

PostNord Group AB

Forecasting only creates value when the business trusts it and acts on it - and that trust is built out in the operation, in conversations with the people planning volumes, routes, and staffing every day. We're strengthening our Forecasting team and looking for a Product Owner to own that bridge between the team and the business, and to help a talented group of specialists turn deep technical work into real operational impact. You'll own the what and the why - vision, roadmap, priorities, and value - working alongside a Tech Lead who owns the how. And as much as you'll shape the backlog, you'll shape the team: you're a natural coach who creates focus, clears the path, and helps skilled people grow their product and stakeholder instincts so they can do their best work. Join us The Technology Acceleration area within Group IT is responsible for establishing the future IT landscape - the foundation for PostNord's continued AI- and data-driven journey. In the Forecasting team you'll be the connective tissue between deep machine learning capability and the operational decisions it exists to support, across logistics domains such as volumes, routing, and staffing. Job duties Own and communicate a clear product vision and roadmap for forecasting - grounded in business value. Spend real time out in the operation: build relationships across logistics business units, understand how planning decisions are actually made, and bring that context back to the team. Be the trusted face of the team to the business - manage expectations, communicate progress and trade-offs honestly, and build demand and adoption for what forecasting can do. Translate operational challenges into a prioritised, well-shaped backlog the team can act on with confidence. Coach and support the team - create focus, remove obstacles, shield them from noise, and help colleagues develop their product thinking and stakeholder skills. Define what "good" looks like: connect forecasting work to decision quality, trust, and measurable business outcomes. Partner closely with the Tech Lead and Senior Data Scientists to balance ambition with what's realistically deliverable. Solid experience as a Product Owner or Product Manager, ideally for data, analytics, or other decision-support products. A proven coach and team builder - you lead through influence and clarity, and you bring the best out of skilled people without relying on authority. Strong stakeholder and relationship skills, and the energy and confidence to spend much of your time out in the business rather than behind a desk. The ability to translate fluently between business needs and technical reality, in both directions. Comfort with how data science and forecasting actually work - you don't need to build models, but you understand uncertainty, iteration, and why these products behave differently from standard software. Strong prioritisation and communication skills. Meritorious experience Background in logistics, supply chain, or operational planning. Experience owning analytics, ML, or forecasting products. Familiarity with Databricks and Azure environments. A track record of growing the product and delivery maturity of a technical team. Agile or lean delivery experience. Language requirement Fluent English in speech and writing. Because so much of this role is spent face to face with the Nordic business, proficiency in at least one Scandinavian language is strongly meritorious. Why this role matters Forecasting sits at the core of how PostNord plans and runs its network. The difference between a model and a measurable impact is adoption - and adoption is your job. You'll be the reason the business understands, trusts, and acts on what the team builds, and the reason a strong team keeps getting stronger. Your profile You're an experienced product person who leads through people. You get your energy from being out in the business, listening hard, and turning what you hear into clear direction. You're a coach at heart - you create focus and momentum, and you help others grow rather than doing everything yourself. You hold a firm line on priorities while keeping the team motivated and protected from distraction. You're pragmatic, trusted, and equally at home in an operational planning meeting and a technical refinement session. Most of all, you want to help build something stronger: a high-performing forecasting team whose work the whole organisation relies on. We offer A central, high-visibility role connecting your team to the heart of the business A cutting-edge analytics environment built on Databricks and Azure A central role in accelerating PostNord's AI- and data-driven journey Apply Welcome to submit your application!

Are you looking for a workplace for the future? We are now looking for someone who wants to work with Service Management within Service Delivery  Coordination & Operational Excellence  in our Datacenter Infrastructure team.  This is how you’ll make a difference with us.  We are building a strong and modern Service Management team with a clear focus on process clarity, smooth workload distribution, and operational excellence across our delivery streams. While each role has its own core alignment, we never work in silos — we deliver as one team and support each other across boundaries. Regardless of your core, you contribute to day‑to‑day coordination, data‑driven prioritisation, KPI work, and continuous improvement using PDCA/DMAIC. Standardisation, documentation, and smart automation solutions are a natural part of our daily work.  Within the team, we work closely with both our team lead and the architecture group, who own our technical roadmaps. Together, we ensure that strategic directions, planned technical changes, and upcoming uplifts are well understood, put into practice, and anchored within the team. A key part of the role also involves close collaboration with our vendor coordinator — planning purchases, handling spare and replacement units, and ensuring that materials and services are booked, approved, and traceable in our ticket and change flows. All of this ensures that our deliveries remain stable, predictable, and well‑synchronised.  We work cross‑functionally with delivery teams, security, network/infrastructure, and the business to maintain pace and high quality throughout the entire value chain. At the same time, we build long‑term structure by standardising and documenting our processes, ways of working, runbooks, playbooks, policies, and checklists — ensuring they are clear, scalable, and auditable.  Our way of working is strongly data‑driven. We create operational views that visualise KPIs, SLAs, backlog/aging, and WIP limits — insights that we use to follow up, prioritise, and drive improvements. Where it makes the biggest impact, we automate manual steps through scheduling, reminders, or reporting packages.  As a team, we facilitate forums such as stand‑ups, handovers, and retrospectives, ensuring that decisions, actions, and follow‑ups stay aligned. In this way, we build a rhythm where quality, learning, and continuous improvement become a natural part of everyday work.  We are currently looking to fill three roles within the following focus areas, or ‘cores’, in the team:  1) Process & Operations  In this role, you create structure and stability in our deliveries. You ensure clear and effective processes — from incident and change management to everyday housekeeping and standard changes. With strong domain knowledge in datacenter operations and a broad technical understanding of platforms, operating systems, and virtualization, you make sure that decisions and ways of working remain consistent across the entire technology stack, including licensing and compliance aspects.  You lead the work of cleaning up and stabilizing process flows, defining standard changes, and securing data quality in our ticket and change management tools. Together with our security functions, you establish clear procedures and a shared “heartbeat,” where planning, execution, control, and improvement take place in regular cycles. The result: clear, measurable, and consistently followed ways of working that strengthen our delivery every single day.  2) Workforce & Prioritization  In this role, you are the person who keeps the flow together. You are responsible for planning and scheduling, ensuring that capacity matches demand and managing workload peaks in a smart and structured way. You own intake and triage, prioritize and dispatch work, and make sure the right task reaches the right person at the right time — supported by clear WIP limits, transparent queue and SLA policies, and well‑defined escalation paths.  You build and run operational dashboards that visualize workload, throughput, and aging, follow up on SLAs, and identify bottlenecks before they impact delivery. By actively balancing capacity, planning shifts, on‑call rotations, and vacations, and holding the daily structure together, you create a steady pace and a delivery flow the team can rely on.  3) Delivery QA & Operational Excellence (OPEX)  In this role, you are the team’s engine for improvement — the person who drives us forward week by week. You identify the right measurement points, build clear KPI hierarchies, and create insight into cause‑and‑effect chains that connect leading indicators to actual outcomes. By gathering and combining data from multiple sources, you enable the team to make faster and smarter decisions.  You lead our data‑driven improvement work through PDCA/DMAIC: you formulate hypotheses, design experiments, build visualizations, and prioritize actions based on impact per invested hour. Using modern tools and AI/AIOps, you identify patterns in incident data, suggest root causes and corrective actions, group alerts, and generate summaries that strengthen analysis and prioritization.  A key part of the role is integrating improvements into our standardized ways of working. You establish guardrails and clear quality criteria, ensuring that our playbooks and standard work are continuously refined. Everything you drive becomes measurable: you demonstrate before/after effects, visualize value, speed, and quality, and make progress visible across the organization.  Are you the one we are looking for?  We are seeking senior candidates (minimum 3 years of experience) with backgrounds at the intersection of technology, processes, and operational coordination. Relevant educational backgrounds include, for example, Systems Science/IT Management, Datacenter/IT Infrastructure, and Lean/Quality Development. Typical previous roles may include Service Delivery Manager/Coordinator, infrastructure or operations roles with coordination responsibilities, as well as Operations/OPEX Analysts or PMO professionals. For these positions, Swedish language skills are considered a merit.
