Backend Engineer (Infrastructure)
SAVR is a fast-growing Swedish fintech company on a mission to reinvent investing. We empower investors with a platform that offers lower fees, greater transparency, and a radically improved experience.
We’re not just building another investment service — we’re reimagining how financial products should work for people, not just institutions. As part of our ambitious, innovative and curious team, you’ll help shape the future of investing in Sweden and beyond.
The Role
As a Software Engineer at SAVR, you will be part of our tech organization helping build and evolve the next generation investment platform. While this role will primarily focus on infrastructure, you will occasionally also work on backend development tasks.
A significant part of your work will involve improving and operating our cloud infrastructure and platform capabilities to ensure scalability, reliability, and a great developer experience. You will collaborate closely with fellow Software Engineers, as well as Data Scientists, Product Designers, and Product Managers to build high-quality products and technical solutions across the platform.
Our infrastructure stack is built on AWS and managed through Terraform, with CI/CD handled via GitHub, alongside some GCP and third-party services. For backend development and analytics, we also work with Kotlin, Python, PHP, Snowflake and dbt.
Your Mission
Take ownership of our cloud infrastructure and platform capabilities, ensuring reliability, scalability, observability and efficient deployments.
Drive technical improvements across backend architecture, CI/CD, developer experience and operational tooling.
Collaborate closely with the team to build high-quality products, develop integrations, and contribute across the stack when needed.
Build and maintain scalable backend systems and services in a fast-paced startup environment.
Foster our learning culture by actively participating in feedback sessions, both receiving and providing constructive feedback on code.
