Our CDN & Origin services enable leading broadcasters, media houses, and partners to distribute content on a scale.

- Collaborate closely with other development teams, network and datacenter colleagues, and support functions
- Troubleshoot, optimize, and maintain services in production
- Work in an agile setup with freedom under responsibility
What you need to succeed
- Minimum 3 years of experience as a backend developer (Java preferred)
- Knowledge of distributed systems and network protocols (TCP/IP, HTTP)
- Skills in at least one systems-oriented programming language (C, C++)
- Solid knowledge of GNU/Linux, including configuration and troubleshooting
Good to have Experience with big data (Hadoop ecosystem or similar), SQL/NoSQL databases, streaming protocols (HLS, DASH, SRT/MPEG-TS, RTMP), CI/CD, load testing, Elasticsearch, RabbitMQ, or automation tools such as Ansible, Puppet, or Chef.
Swedish language skills are a plus.
The team and why GlobalConnect You will join a team of 16 specialists, including five developers, who have worked together for many years. The team values collaboration, autonomy, and close customer relationships. We are proud to serve more than 120 customers, including some of the most recognized media companies in the Nordics. At Globalconnect, you will experience a culture of trust, learning, and proactivity.
Process We review applications continuously. A CV is enough; a cover letter is not required unless you want to highlight something not covered in your CV or LinkedIn.
