Natural Cycles is an international working environment filled with smart and ambitious colleagues working in our offices in Stockholm, Geneva, New York and remotely.

We’re looking for a Software Engineer with a focus on Security and Automation who thrives in a fast-paced, data-driven, agile environment and is inspired to use their talents to help us in our mission. Grounded in science and founded by scientists, we pride ourselves with being a very data-driven company and team. This role is thus of great importance and has a high impact cross functionally at Natural Cycles.

We are looking for a candidate whose soft skills shine and who can communicate with ease in English. You are passionate about technology, team work, but also have a responsibility and autonomy in your work. You are able to work efficiently in a remote work environment, in a setting where online and asynchronous communication is the foundation.

We are a remote-first company and have physical offices in Stockholm, Geneva and New York, which you are welcome to use if you are located nearby. Once or twice per year we all meet up in person in a beautiful location to enjoy a few days together.

The position is based in Sweden, allowing fully remote work from European time zones.

As a member of the platform team you will also be working with integrations between our Natural Cycles app and different platforms, e.g. different hardware platforms, customer service platforms, CRM, logistics and more. This will enable our teams to optimize and improve the growth drivers while staying secure and hence maximize the impact on our mission to empower women.
