Android Developer

This is us: Omni

We are a collaborative group of developers who have disrupted the Swedish news media since the launch of our news app Omni Nyheter over eight years ago. Today we have two native mobile apps and reach well over half a million users every week. Our aim is to be user-centric, innovative and to give the best overview of the news to all of our users – on all digital platforms in order to challenge people to new insights, about our world, each other and ourselves. In 2020, 2016 and 2015 Omni won awards for best Swedish news service.

What will you do

Our offices are located in Gdańsk, Stockholm and Oslo, but we are a distributed team supported by a Hybrid Work model with our Work From Anywhere Policy. You’ll be part of an experienced team of motivated, talented mobile and backend developers.

Hi, I’m your new manager!

My name is Emil and I have worked at Omni and Schibsted for 1.5 years coming from a background as a full stack web-developer and CTO at smaller companies and startups. What I thoroughly enjoy working at Omni is the balance between the innovative and entrepreneurial start-up culture and flat organisation that defines Omni and the way we approach product and software development with the stability and muscles of the larger Schibsted organisation at our backs. We are a close-knit team working cross-functional on features not only App and Backend but also with Editorial and Business and we would love to have you join us on our continued journey in challenging traditional news media.


Schibsted is a family of digital brands with a strong Nordic position, and more than 5,000 employees. Millions of people interact with our companies every day through our leading online marketplaces, world-class media houses. We also help new promising businesses grow. Our joint mission of empowering people in their daily lives is rooted in the values of our media heritage and a legacy of bold change. At our best, we are a fearless force for change in a society built on trust and transparency.

Product & Tech is responsible for product development and technology platforms for News Media brands. The unit consists of product managers, software engineers, UX experts, and user researchers. Most of our teams work distributed, with colleagues in Oslo, Stockholm, Krakow, Gdansk, Bergen, and Stavanger.
