• Drive security, data protection, and ISO-compliant development practices

• Support continued growth of Nimblr’s AI capabilities, automation, and personalization engine

• Act as technical owner for internal IT and system integrations supporting company operations

Who you are

• 10+ years of experience in senior engineering or technology leadership roles within SaaS

• A strong leader that thrives building a tech business as well of technology

• Proven track record of scaling engineering teams (e.g. from ~10 to 40+ people)

• Strong hands-on technical background and credibility with senior engineers and tech leads

• Experience designing and evolving scalable, secure, cloud-based platforms

• Comfortable driving structure and process — without creating unnecessary bureaucracy

• Strong communicator and decision-maker, able to take ownership and stand by technical decisions

• Experience with cybersecurity, data protection, or compliance is a plus

• Fluent in English (Swedish is not required)

• Based in Malmö
