VP Engineering

Learnster is a learning platform on a mission to change how organizations develop their people. We combine a human-centered

approach with modern technology and AI to help companies build real learning cultures. More than 200 customers and over 400,000

users in 50+ markets rely on us, including ICA, Sats, Röda Korset and Omegapoint. We are profitable, growing, and have a culture

people genuinely enjoy being part of.

Learnster stands on solid ground: a working platform, loyal customers and a profitable business. But big changes are coming in how

we build, how we scale and how we use AI. We want you to lead them.

This is not a role where you inherit a finished roadmap and keep the lights on. You will set the technical direction for the whole

company. You’ll make the platform faster for our largest customers and bring agentic development into how the whole team works.

You’ll also evolve our architecture so it supports how we package and price our product. Every major technical decision connects

directly to the business, and you’ll be the one making the call.

You’ll have real freedom to shape the tech organization: how the team works, how it grows, and which practices define it. The team

is experienced and self-driven. What it needs is a leader who sets the direction, explains the why, and then gives people room to

deliver. We’re a small company with short decision paths, so what you decide on Monday can be in motion by Wednesday.

• Ownership of delivery, driving the work from discovery to launch and follow-up, in close collaboration with product management

and design as well as marketing, sales and customer success.

• Leading a team of 7 highly skilled developers in Stockholm and Ukraine. The team will probably grow by 1–3 people over the

coming year.

• Leading the way how tech is working with security including the standards for ISO 27001 and in the near future ISO 42001 for

AI.

• A clear leader who delegates, motivates through context, holds people accountable and gives feedback early. You have made tough

people decisions.

• Pragmatic. You choose technology for the sake of the business and understand the financial consequences of architectural

decisions.

2. Initial meet interview: 30–45 minutes with Erik our CEO, preferably on-site. We present the role and the company and get to

know you.

3. Team interview: A deeper interview on leadership and technology, with situational questions about how you have acted in the

past.

4. Case - Business and leadership: An interview with focus on an architectural challenge, combined with leadership and business

understanding.
