This is the Swedish Forest Agency
The IT unit of the Swedish Forest Agency has many exciting projects underway, and we now need to strengthen our development teams with two backend developers! If you are a person who enjoys collaborating, is challenged by problem-solving, and aims to create the best value for the customer/business – then you will thrive with us!
The Swedish Forest Agency creates value by using technologies such as AI, image analysis, and machine learning, as well as by creating user-friendly services for forest owners, forestry companies, and those who just want to enjoy nature.
This is done by making the vast amounts of information about forests that we have available in a simple way to both the forestry sector and other service developers. Satellite images, maps, and the underlying data for these are areas where we are at the forefront, and in raster development/image analysis, we are leading in Sweden. The digitization of the forestry sector is an area that gives us new opportunities to create even more value and innovative services for the conservation and utilization of Sweden's most important raw material, the forest.
The IT Unit
The unit consists of about 40 colleagues who are divided into a couple of operations teams, a support team, a couple of development teams, and several resource consultants.
The IT unit of the Swedish Forest Agency - which is mainly located at the headquarters in Jönköping - serves not only the headquarters but also about 80 local offices around the country, with everything from development, management, operations, and support.
Our development teams work agilely in close collaboration with the business and also in close cooperation with operations and support.
With us, you will work in a varied and friendly workplace with great opportunities for development within your field.
We offer you
- To become part of a wonderful team in the IT unit and to help create value for forest owners, forestry companies, and nature enthusiasts in our long country.
- Great benefits including reimbursement for purchasing your own office equipment, flexible working hours, wellness grants, and reimbursement for publicly funded healthcare.
About the role
You will be part of a development team where we develop IT support based on the best value for the customer/business. The Swedish Forest Agency works in the Microsoft and ESRI environment where we develop and manage custom-built system support for both internal and external users and applications.
Requirements
We need reinforcement for two of our development teams.
One development team that needs reinforcement from a backend developer is developing a common infrastructure for geodata, which is a consolidated platform for the Swedish Forest Agency's national geodata with both internal and external use. The team is also responsible for functions and integrations that are reused in many IT supports as well as for the platform with financial and HR information.
The other team that needs reinforcement is the development team that develops and manages, among other things, Navet. Navet is the Swedish Forest Agency's specially adapted case management system that is responsible for supporting its case officers and for distributing information to applicants and others. Here, various types of cases such as logging notifications, legal cases, advice, area protection, and forestry support are registered and processed.
- You are newly graduated or soon to finish your university education in system development or have worked a few years in system development.
- You are interested in T-SQL, C#/.NET
- You like new technology and want to develop continuously.
- You are curious, positive, delivery-focused, and humble.
- You enjoy working in a team.
Meritorious
Experience in geographic data and GIS development is a plus. Experience in BI development is also meritorious.
Your qualities
You are a team player who believes that the team's total ability can perform more than the individual.
To succeed in your tasks, it is important that you have close cooperation with clients, product owners, the team, and the rest of the organization. Therefore, great emphasis is placed on personal qualities such as good collaboration and communication skills, initiative, and interest in the development of the business.
