Job Description

SAVR is a fast-growing Swedish fintech company on a mission to reinvent investing. We empower investors with a platform that offers lower fees, greater transparency, and a radically improved experience

We’re not just building another investment service — we’re reimagining how financial products should work for people, not just institutions. As part of our ambitious, innovative and curious team, you’ll help shape the future of investing in Sweden and beyond.

The Role

As a Software Engineer in our Backend team, you will be part of our tech organization helping build and evolve the next generation investment platform. While this role will primarily focus on infrastructure, you will occasionally also work on backend development tasks.

A significant part of your work will involve improving and operating our cloud infrastructure and platform capabilities to ensure scalability, reliability, and a great developer experience. You will collaborate closely with fellow Software Engineers, as well as Data Scientists, Product Designers, and Product Managers to build high-quality products and technical solutions across the platform.

Our infrastructure stack is built on AWS and managed through Terraform, with CI/CD handled via GitHub, alongside some GCP and third-party services. For backend development and analytics, we also work with Kotlin, Python, PHP, Snowflake and dbt.

Your Mission

  • Take ownership of our cloud infrastructure and platform capabilities, ensuring reliability, scalability, observability and efficient deployments.

  • Drive technical improvements across backend architecture, CI/CD, developer experience and operational tooling.

  • Collaborate closely with the team to build high-quality products, develop integrations, and contribute across the stack when needed.

  • Build and maintain scalable backend systems and services in a fast-paced startup environment.

  • Foster our learning culture by actively participating in feedback sessions, both receiving and providing constructive feedback on code.

You’ll Thrive in This Role If You...

  • Are a backend engineer who specializes in infrastructure, cloud platforms and scalable systems.

  • Have solid experience with AWS, Terraform, CI/CD, Docker/ECS/EKS, and observability tooling.

  • Have 4+ years of professional experience with backend development building and operating product-grade systems

  • Enjoy working in a startup environment where you can move between infrastructure and backend development depending on what creates the most impact.

  • Care about writing maintainable software, improving reliability through automation, and collaborating closely with others.

  • Are fluent in English and either hold Swedish citizenship or a valid EU work permit (visa sponsorship is unfortunately not available)

Our Cultural DNA

🧠 Open-minded – we embrace new ideas, diverse perspectives, and continuous learning

🚀 Bold – we take smart risks, move fast, and aren’t afraid to fail forward

🤝 Honest – we value transparency, feedback, and doing the right thing

We’re a startup, so things can be a little messy — and that’s part of the thrill. If you thrive in building as a team and handling uncertainty, you will fit right in.

What’s In It for You

You’ll join a product- and design-driven company where your work has real impact. We keep things lean, move fast, and genuinely care about the experience we deliver — for customers and for each other.

Here’s what we offer:

💻 Top-tier work gear

💰 Competitive salary

🏃‍♀️ Generous wellness allowance

🤒 Insurance package

🌱 Occupational pension and long-term savings support

🏢 Office-first approach to foster collaboration and quick decision-making — with flexibility when you need it (4+1)

🥗 Stocked pantry, plus regular social gatherings and wellness activities to keep energy and culture high

Our Commitment to Diversity

SAVR is an equal opportunity employer. We welcome people from all backgrounds, identities, and experiences. We believe diverse teams build better products and are committed to creating an inclusive workplace where everyone can thrive.
