Software Architect

We are now looking for a Software Architect in Gothenburg to our Java team

When we started in 2004 we couldn’t imagine how quickly we would grow. Now, 11 years later, we have offices in seven countries and in all countries outside Sweden we call ourselves Benify. To make everything even easier, we have now renamed Flexpay to Benify here in Sweden also, but everything else is just as usual! :)

We are currently looking for an experienced Software Architect to our core Java team. This is a great opportunity for anyone who wants to be part of a growing team with a strong development culture, a relentless focus on great code and continuous deployment.

As software architect at Benify you will take a senior role in a 10+ team of dedicated Java-developers with focus on our core-platform, the absolute cornerstone of our business. We love change and new technology so if your current boss is tired of you asking when you can deploy Java 8 you’ll probably fit right in here.

To succeed in the role you must excel at the following:

• Excellent and up to date Java skills
• Strong problem solver
• Define, continuously improve, and deliver on the improving code quality
• Participate in business and project planning

• Java and database development experience
• Fluent in English and Swedish (written and spoken)
• Minimum of 5+ years working within software development
