Senior Backend Engineer

We are looking for a highly experienced Senior Backend Engineer who can take strong ownership of architectural decision‑making while also boosting delivery velocity within one of our clients’ product teams. The ideal consultant is a technical generalist with leadership qualities, comfortable operating beyond pure backend development when needed—such as contributing to the creation of lightweight web products as part of a broader solution.

Start: January

Length: 6 months with possible extension

Location: Stockholm on-site minimum 3 days per week

Our clients’ primary backend stack is Go, but expertise specifically in Go is not a requirement. Candidates with deep experience across multiple programming languages and environments are expected to upskill in Go quickly.

The assignment will work closely with our Monetisation domain, with a core focus on building and expanding a new and improved B2B offering as well as enabling external partnerships.

Key requirements:

• Extensive experience as a senior backend engineer
• Strong architectural and technical decision‑making capabilities
• A generalist mindset with the ability to work across backend, web, and adjacent areas
• Leadership qualities and the ability to accelerate team delivery
• Experience with Go is beneficial but not mandatory
• Comfortable working in product environments related to B2B solutions and partnerships
