• Contribute to security and robustness testing where appropriate

Agile Collaboration

• Comfortable working with complex, long-lived systems
• Able to balance pragmatism with high standards

Highly Valued

• Experience testing large, distributed, business-critical systems
• Confidence influencing developers and engineering leadership
• Experience in cross-border, distributed teams

• Hybrid working, flexible hours in line with Swedish labour law

• People who enjoy their work, collaborate well, and take pride in doing things properly
