Vacant job

On behalf of our client, we are now looking for a versatile software consultant to join their team in Stockholm. This is a fantastic opportunity for you if you want to build high-quality software, have significant influence over your assignments, and belong to a company where the human element is always at the center.

About the role

Our client is a personal and agile tech consulting firm in Stockholm delivering services within software development, data, AI, and cloud. They are driven by a simple but strong conviction: when you create an environment where people feel safe, seen, and free to grow, they also deliver real results.

This is a small, tightly-knit company where everyone helps shape the culture and direction. As a software consultant with them, you get to shape your own role based on your background, strengths, and future goals. You can work broadly across the entire stack – from frontend and UX to backend, APIs, and cloud infrastructure – where, as a resource consultant, you have the opportunity to take on assignments that suit your specific profile and interests. What unites the team is not a specific stack, but a desire to deliver with quality, take responsibility, and have fun together.

What we offer

• A dynamic salary model with a fixed base and performance-based bonus, a generous wellness allowance, and flexible holiday terms
• Become part of a flat-hierarchy team where your personal development drives your assignments

Responsibilities

In the role of a consultant, you will step into exciting environments where you help clients solve complex problems. Your tasks may include, among other things:

• Designing and developing scalable applications, whether it involves modern frontend, robust backend APIs, or system architecture.
• Automating workflows and building modern solutions in the cloud with a focus on performance and security.
• Understanding the client's challenges, suggesting technical choices, and collaborating closely with both development teams and non-technical stakeholders.

We are looking for someone who

• Has an academic degree in computer science, systems science, or equivalent – or alternatively, substantial, practical experience as a developer.
• Has a few years of experience (preferably around 3–4 years or more) in modern software development in complex environments.
• Feels confident in at least two of the following languages: Python, TypeScript, C#, C++, Go, or Java.
• Has experience in client-facing work or consulting assignments and thrives in collaborative environments.
• Speaks and writes fluently in both Swedish and English.

It is an advantage if you have experience in any of the following areas:

• Cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP) as well as containerization (Docker/Kubernetes).
• Database design, DevOps pipelines, system architecture, or IT security.
• Frontend frameworks and an eye for UX.

To succeed in the role, you have the following personal qualities:

We are looking for a curious and self-motivated developer who is motivated by solving problems and constantly learning new technologies. As a person, you are flat-hierarchy, easy to collaborate with, and have good communication skills that allow you to explain technical concepts to people with different backgrounds. You naturally take ownership of your deliverables and thrive in a corporate culture built on honesty, openness, and community.
