Sr. Engineer Systems & AI | Core

Through TV4 Play in Sweden and MTV Katsomo in Finland, we reach around eight million people across the Nordics every week. Within

Product, Tech & Operations, we build the technology that enables people to discover and enjoy our content, from streaming and

playback to search and recommendations.

We are looking for a Senior Engineer, Systems & AI to work across Core and beyond, tackling some of our most complex engineering

challenges. You will identify problems that span systems and teams, establish technical direction where the way forward is

unclear, and turn that direction into working solutions.

This is a role for an engineer who combines broad systems thinking with deep technical judgement and a willingness to get

hands-on. You will influence how we build and operate software across our engineering organisation, not just within a single team.

We cannot offer visa sponsorship or relocation assistance. You must already have the right to work in Sweden and be based in

Sweden.

Core builds and maintains many of the technical systems and platforms that TV4 Play and MTV Katsomo depend on. The area includes

our streaming infrastructure, frontend video players, core content catalogue and platform engineering.

These systems are closely connected. Challenges often span multiple services, teams and technical domains, and solving them

requires an understanding of how the pieces fit together.

You will report to the Area Lead for Core, but your work will not be limited to one team. You will operate across organisational

boundaries, working with engineers and technical leaders wherever your experience can make the greatest difference.

The mandate is broad: identify gaps, challenge existing assumptions and help create a coherent technical direction across Core

and, when needed, beyond it.

You will take on engineering challenges where ownership is unclear, dependencies are complex or the right technical direction has

yet to emerge.

That might mean addressing a problem that affects several systems, resolving architectural trade-offs between teams, identifying a

capability the organisation is missing, or exploring how new engineering approaches can change the way we build software.

• Drive technical decisions across teams, bringing the relevant engineers together around sound reasoning and explicit

trade-offs.

• Move between architecture, system design and implementation, using code, prototypes and technical experiments to investigate

and solve problems.

• Challenge established approaches when there is a better way, while understanding the operational and organisational

consequences of change.

• Help us understand where AI and agent-driven development can change engineering practices, system design and the way we operate

software.

This is not an advisory role. You are expected to contribute directly to the technical work. Your influence comes from

understanding the problem, making sound decisions and helping others move forward, not from a formal management title.

AI is becoming an integral part of software development at TV4. Within Core, we are developing an agentic platform that will

influence how engineers work and how we approach software development.

We want to understand not only how AI can make existing tasks faster, but also how agent-driven development changes the systems,

tools and engineering practices we need.

You will work close to this evolution. We are looking for someone who actively experiments with AI-assisted and agent-driven

development and can reason about the implications beyond the individual developer.

You will help us explore new approaches, challenge assumptions and distinguish genuine improvements from interesting experiments.

The focus is on what works in practice and creates lasting value in production.

You are an experienced engineer with a strong technical foundation and a track record of solving complex problems in production

environments.

You are comfortable moving between technical domains, getting up to speed quickly in unfamiliar systems and digging into the

details when necessary. You can see the bigger picture without losing sight of the engineering work required to make a solution

real.

You have influenced technical direction beyond your immediate team. You can work with experienced engineers, challenge their

assumptions and build alignment around difficult technical decisions without relying on formal authority.

You combine breadth with depth. You understand how systems interact, but you also have the technical judgement to distinguish a

good abstraction from an unnecessary one, evaluate trade-offs and contribute directly to implementation.

• Are comfortable working hands-on with code, prototypes and technical experiments when that is the best way to understand or

solve a problem.

• Have integrated AI into your development workflow and actively explore how agent-driven development is changing software

engineering.

Experience with streaming, playback or audio/video technology is a plus, but not a prerequisite. What matters more is your

engineering foundation, systems thinking and ability to understand a complex technical domain.

Core spans a broad technical landscape, from backend services, APIs and developer platforms to video playback and the

infrastructure that delivers our streams to millions of users.

We choose technology based on the problem we need to solve. For this role, understanding systems and architecture, making sound

technical decisions and working effectively across domains matter more than deep expertise in any one specific stack.
