Vacant job

Are you ready for a bigger challenge? We are now looking for a Technical Specialist. Here, you will develop and gain lifelong experiences together with engaged and friendly colleagues, while your work contributes to increasing safety and reducing crime in Sweden.

As a Technical Specialist, you will have a varied role where the main goal is to adapt and manage applications. You will work within areas such as installation, upgrade, and configuration of the group's systems.

You will work with purchased systems, and an important task is therefore to introduce standard systems into the Swedish Police Authority's technical environment, which has specific needs and very high security requirements. As needed, you will collaborate with suppliers on maintenance, improvement, and further development measures that are necessary.

The work involves close collaboration with other groups within IT operations and infrastructure. The role means that you will be a key person in the introduction and maintenance of IT systems within the group's area of responsibility.

Examples of tasks:

• Daily system maintenance including troubleshooting
• Life cycle management and environmental monitoring
• Requirement specification and technical configuration
• Collaboration with our operations organization regarding, for example, database and network configuration

Qualifications

This is an opportunity for you who have:

• Relevant education in IT, or equivalent experience assessed by the Swedish Police Authority as comparable
• Several years of recent experience working with technical application management and system administration in both Windows and Linux environments
• Very good ability to express yourself verbally and in writing in Swedish and English

The position requires Swedish citizenship.

It is meritorious if you also have recent experience with:

• Microsoft SQL Server/MySQL databases
• Experience with project management or wiki products
• Knowledge of Open Source products
• Experience with APIs such as REST/JSON
• Skills in programming, scripting languages, and/or Java
• Knowledge of agile methods and/or process-oriented working methods

Personal qualities:

We are looking for you who are analytical, responsible, and structured with strong drive. The tasks require you to be proactive and have a service-oriented approach towards colleagues, suppliers, and operations. You must be curious to constantly learn more within your field of competence. You also need to be a good communicator and have the ability to work both independently and in a team.

We will place great emphasis on personal qualities.

Description of the workplace

Our group is currently responsible for, among other things, the procurement, introduction, system development, management, and life cycle management of general support systems directed towards all parts of the Swedish Police Authority's operations. We are currently in a transition process where the group's area of responsibility is being expanded with more types of systems, and we therefore need to strengthen the group.

In addition to the responsibility of managing our systems, the group provides core competence in documentation, project leadership, and case management to the entire Swedish Police Authority.

We are located on Kungsholmen in Stockholm, and there is an opportunity to work up to two days a week from home. As a state employee at the Swedish Police Authority, we also offer special benefits regarding pension, parental leave, wellness, etc.
