Om tjänsten
Hello Senior Software Engineer! Thanks for reading this far. We’re not sure how you found this post. Maybe a colleague mentioned
Humblebee, maybe you read one of our stories and thought this looked like a good place to spend your days. However you got here,
we’re glad you did.
Humblebee is a digital service studio in Sweden. We build digital products with ambitious companies, and we’re looking for a
Senior Software Engineer with a cloud and data profile to join our product teams, where business, design and tech sit at the same
table.
WHY THIS ROLE EXISTS
Software engineering has changed. AI went from a feature you bolt on to a material you build with. That means knowing what to
build, getting the data in order, and making the thing survive contact with production and real users.
We’re looking for breadth, and for someone who doesn’t need to be led. You see what needs doing, you say it out loud, and you get
it done.
WHAT YOU’LL BE DOING
You might be the spearhead: one engineer covering everything a client needs. You might work in a duo with a service designer,
where the two of you cover each other’s blind spots. You might sit in a multidisciplinary team with engineers, designers and
business-minded colleagues, sometimes ours, sometimes the client’s.
The mix shifts with the assignment. The work could include:
- Setting up complete AI flows, from data source through model and tooling to the interface people use, and the numbers that
prove it pays off.
- Building and running AI features that people rely on, such as retrieval, search, agents, recommendations and automated
workflows, with evaluation and guardrails in place.
IS THIS YOU?
You’re a strong engineer first. You’re curious about how a business makes money, not just about the stack. You’d rather ship a
small thing that works than a big thing that demos well. AI helps you move fast, and you still own what comes out: it has to hold
up a year from now, for whoever picks it up next.
You likely have:
- Strong TypeScript, C#, Java or Python. We work mostly in the JavaScript/TypeScript stack, with .NET, C# and Java in some teams,
and Python where it fits.
We like T-shaped people: deep in something, useful across the whole. Nobody knows everything, and we don’t expect you to. We do
expect you to feel responsible for the whole, and to be straight about where your edges are.
YOU ARE AS IMPORTANT AS YOUR SKILLS
We hire people as much for their human traits as for their skills. We like good humans around us. We work in the open, in design
sprints, development sprints and workshops with clients, so we hire people who are empathetic, kind, patient and generous. We are
Humblebee.
BEFORE YOU APPLY, READ THIS CAREFULLY
To help us find the right fit, we prioritise candidates on these criteria:
Tell us about concrete projects. What was the business problem, what did you build, what changed as a result. Outcomes beat tech
lists.
GOOD TO KNOW
This position is full-time, based in our Gothenburg office with a hybrid working model (part office, part home). A Swedish work
permit is required. We don’t offer relocation assistance or visa sponsorship.
Humblebee is a multi-lingual company, so please write your application in English.
