Senior Backend Engineer | Routing Team

Stockholm, Stockholms länStockholms länPosted 04 Sep 2026jobtech

That's a Traveling Salesman Problem at massive scale, and it's what the Routing Team solves, live, in production. As a Senior Backend Engineer, your code doesn't sit in a backlog. It ships, and the next day it's already changing distribution costs, delivery accuracy, and the experience of thousands of customers. Tech stack

🐹 Backend

Golang (primary), with legacy Java and Node.js

🖥️ Frontend

React + Next.js

🗄️ Data

PostgreSQL, MongoDB

☁️ Infra

GCP, Kubernetes (Helm), Terraform

🔁 CI/CD & Observability

GitHub Actions, Grafana

What you'll own

Design, build, and ship backend features end-to-end — including proposing the projects worth building

Modernize legacy services (Java/Node) into scalable Go-based architecture

Set the bar for clean, maintainable, well-documented code

Partner with Product to turn technical solutions into KPI impact

Lead incident response and turn root causes into long-term fixes

Mentor engineers and help shape a strong technical culture

What we're looking for

Solid, hands-on experience with Go (or another strongly-typed language) in production

A track record of designing and scaling distributed systems/APIs in the cloud — GCP or AWS

Comfortable with Kubernetes/Helm, Terraform, and SQL

You raise problems before they become incidents, and you help fix them

You make sound decisions under ambiguity, and you enjoy giving/getting feedback

You care where your code actually lands — in a truck, on a route, at someone's door

Bonus: you've worked across legacy stacks and enjoy bringing old systems up to modern standards. Why this role

Real-world impact, fast. Your work reaches thousands of people daily — not after a year of roadmap, but this quarter. Visit our sorting terminals, ride along with a delivery driver, or shadow ops for a day — build with real context, not assumptions. Build, don't just maintain. Regular Hack Days let you take an idea from proof-of-concept to production. Tools that keep up with you. Paid licenses for IDEs and AI coding agents. Grow with modern tech, without being cut off from where it came from — you'll touch legacy systems too, and get to fix them properly. Perks

🏢 Newly renovated office with a 360° view over Stockholm

⏰ Flexible hybrid hours

👶 6 months of parental pay top-up

🎂 A day off on your birthday
