Can I work from home?
We are flexible in regard to your place of work and allow you to choose for yourself. You can select remote work if you are located within the EU or join one of our offices in Karlskrona or Stockholm.
Is travel involved?
If you want it to be. We might have customers looking for help in your specific area of expertise and might ask you to come on-site to help them out, should you wish to. Suppose you are a person who enjoys public speaking. In that case, we highly encourage you to travel to open-source community conferences and meetup to give presentations and workshops. Maybe you are a remote worker and wish to come and visit us in any of our offices, in which case we would be glad to have you.
What employment conditions apply?
This is a full-time position with 6 weeks' vacation. We have a company policy that specifies a 6-month probation period.
Can I apply anonymously?
We'll need a working email address from you. Still, suppose you prefer to not give your name or other identifying information in the initial application. In that case, you are free to withhold that. However, please be prepared to disclose your identity in the course of an interview — we can't hire you anonymously.
I'm interested. What's next?
We'd like to hear from you! And we have a few additional questions we would like to ask you. Some of those are about your existing skills and strengths, but if one of them happens to leave you stumped, don't fret! That's totally OK. We don't expect you to bring everything to the table; we'd just like to know what we should prioritize in training.
