We are looking for a curious and experienced engineer to join our backend team in Gothenburg. This role is flexible depending on your profile:

• DevOps Engineer focused full-time on infrastructure, automation, and reliability

In both cases, you will help shape the systems that power our games, ensure stability at scale, and collaborate across teams to drive technical excellence. You will be part of a team that values shared decisions, open collaboration, and continuous learning.

🔧 About the role

As part of our backend platform team, you will either:

• Backend with DevOps focus: Design and maintain backend services that support game logic, player data, and B2B integrations. At the same time, you will help drive improvements in cloud infrastructure, monitoring, and deployment pipelines.
• Fully DevOps: Take ownership of infrastructure, CI/CD, observability, and scaling systems across global cloud environments. You will work to ensure high uptime and performance across all production systems.

We value both paths and will tailor responsibilities depending on your strengths.

You will work mainly from our office on Avenyn in Gothenburg, with flexible remote work options.

• Collaborate with other engineers, game teams, and stakeholders to align technical solutions with business needs
• Share knowledge and best practices to strengthen the overall team

🎯 What you bring

We are looking for someone with either mid-level or senior-level experience. You might not know everything yet, but you are confident in your skills, eager to grow, and ready to take ownership of your work.

• Professional experience in software engineering and/or cloud infrastructure
• Programming skills in something like C#, Node.js or similar
• Experience with Azure, Kubernetes, Google Cloud or similar platforms
• Familiarity with databases like MongoDB and MySQL
• Comfortable with tools such as Git, Visual Studio, JetBrains, Postman and modern CI/CD systems
• A structured mindset, clear communication style, and willingness to collaborate
• Fluency in English (Swedish is a plus but not required)
• Based in or near Gothenburg, or open to relocating

🎁 What we offer

At Solidicon, you will join a respectful and collaborative team that believes the best outcomes happen when everyone feels empowered to contribute. We take pride in making decisions together, listening to each other’s perspectives, and creating an environment where ideas can be challenged and explored without fear.

You will also enjoy:

🎓 We invest in your growth

At Solidicon, personal development is not just encouraged – it is structured into your year. All team members have access to:
