Senior Backend Engineer

Equal IT
Sweden · Full-time · Mid-Senior

Our client is one of Sweden’s fastest-growing gaming technology companies, powering B2B platforms for online operators worldwide.


They are now entering a major growth phase and building a new team focused on anti-fraud, community services, and next-gen player experiences.


The team optimises for quality, rapid iteration, and short feedback loops and has full end-to-end ownership, strong engineering autonomy, and a culture centred on experimentation, monitoring, and continuous improvement.


You build it, you ship it!


You will

  • Own products end-to-end: design, build, test, deploy, and monitor in production.
  • Work with large-scale, high-availability systems moving millions of events per minute.
  • Move fast: build, iterate, release multiple times a day with automated deployment.
  • Help shape team culture, engineering practices, and technical direction.
  • Design and evolve system architecture with hands-on coding (we are not looking for PowerPoint Architecture).
  • Mentor teammates and collaborate closely with stakeholders across the business.
  • Learn fast through experimentation; success, failure, and everything in between.


Team Culture

  • Small, tight-knit team early in its journey
  • Real ownership and autonomy
  • Low process, zero meetings, so you can keep building
  • A chance to shape culture, tooling, and ways of working
  • A fast, sometimes messy, but always exciting environment with driven engineers


We need

  • Experience setting up infrastructure and applications to handle enormous amounts of data
  • Strong experience across multiple backend languages
  • Solid grounding in both SQL and NoSQL databases
  • Experience with serverless and self-managed cloud services
  • Background with event or streaming tech (Kafka, RabbitMQ, Kinesis, Flink)
  • Exposure to DevOps practices and deploying scalable systems in AWS
  • Experience with high-throughput, high-transaction environments
  • A hands-on builder who loves solving real problems, not an architect who stopped coding


If you are a senior engineer who thrives in autonomy, loves fast iteration, and wants to build new products from scratch with talented peers, this is the place to make a huge impact.
