We're looking for people with a passion for software development, love solving problems, and that thrive in agile development environments. We are looking for engineers that can help us establish capabilities around identity wallets. You'll be part of adding the identity layer to Kivra and engineer next generation technology around authentication and data verification.
At Kivra, we are building services that connect over 6 million people, by providing a safe and accessible digital infrastructure that everyone in Sweden can trust and use. At the same time, we are saving trees - reducing the paper that is printed and transported - by providing a better digital alternative to physical paper communication.
What you'll be doing
You'll join the Identity team at Kivra, and work to develop services around user centric digital identity - where people can own and control all aspects of their data. Security, reliability, and scalability are three areas we value highly and that serve as a foundation for our services; and central to the work you'll do.
Our services deal with large amounts of users, data and transactions daily, and our objective is to do so with 100% availability. We believe in doing things smart, simple and open source - and this is reflected in our tech stack.
The identity software is based on Kotlin, but the Kivra tech stack also includes technologies such as Erlang, Elixir, Golang and more, including native app engineering. Your main contribution will be in backend engineering with Kotlin with Spring, but we expect you to be curious and willing to contribute also to other code bases.
Moreover, we have adopted the Devops Methodology and strongly believe in the "You build it - you own it"-attitude. You will be actively involved in developing, testing, deploying and incident management, contributing to the overall success of the team. In that regard we utilize Docker, PostgreSQL, GCP, Github, Terraform, and more.
What we're looking for
Knowledge is important but so is attitude! Kivra's culture is strongly influenced by kindness, drive and the desire to produce high-quality work. How you fit in with your team is super important, and just like us, we believe that you thrive on being nice, helpful and always encouraging growth.
This job is for you who provide:
Deep experience building and maintaining production-grade software.
Confidence in Kotlin/JVM, but curious and willing to contribute wherever the problem is.
A rigorous approach to testing and troubleshooting with a zero-bug mindset.
Ability to move fast without breaking things - you deliver quality, quickly.
Architecture-level thinking - you understand systems, not just code.
Clear communication, technical judgment, and a high signal-to-noise ratio.
Bonus points for experience with OIDC/OAuth2, application security and cryptography.
Extra credit if you've worked with decentralized identity, verifiable credentials, or related technologies.
Moreover we believe that you:
Are a do-er that gets excited about developing new ideas and proposing innovative solutions
Use feedback and reflection to develop self-awareness, personal and professional strengths as well as address new development areas
Can collaborate with other product teams to help and provide the best end-user experience
Review your work and that of others for quality, accuracy and relevance
Use straightforward feedback, in a structured and constructive way, when communicating with others
Seek opportunities to automate and document your work
We value previous experience in agile methodology and that you enjoy working within all aspects of agile development. To solve problems we strive to pair-program when possible and we think that you have the same mindset. Just like us, you are passionate about your craft and take ownership over your own development.
We offer
Kivra offers a role in a caring and committed team, in a company that is growing and continuously innovating. You'll join a warm and friendly culture that thrives on collaboration and teamwork. You will be involved in shaping and influencing a product currently used by more than half of Sweden's population.
We offer competitive remuneration and great benefits. Read more about our core values and benefits here:
