Position Responsibilities: 
We are looking for a Senior Software Developer to join our team in Gothenburg. In this role, you will have a central position to develop and maintain specific software for our generic product packaging, which will be a vital part of our business in order to scale our Software as a Service (SaaS) solutions. The team is responsible to develop our Configuration Environment, which is a collection of programs and services that in a standardized way serves as the foundation for our customers. The Configuration Environment is used to host, build, test and deploy the individual customer's product configuration.

Currently, the work involves porting the application to the AWS cloud. The Configuration Environment has historically existed as a collection of virtual machines, and we are currently working on replicating this setup in the cloud. We are also working on moving the services into a Kubernetes context. Most of the daily work involves writing Bash and Python scripts that manage the platform, which consists of a GitLab instance that serves the CI/CD processes and various connecting components. Each customer has their own such instance and can modify various aspects themselves. Our team create and maintain the foundation of this setup.

We also think you are driven, committed, have a positive attitude and are comfortable with continuous team growth and having fun.
