What you will be up to A new team and a new task for Blocket. A little futuristic, modern, and innovative at the same time. Like a new costume to a good old friend. Together with a cross functional team consisting of UX, Data Insight, and Product Management, you will bring the tech to team Personalization. The tech team will initially consist of one frontend, one backend, one Engineering Manager, and one ML engineer. The mission for the team is to bring in ML in order to help our users to find what they are looking (and sometimes what they did not know they are looking) for. You will build smart code that thinks proactively for our users, suggesting adverts and products to them. And we know, we are not first on it but boy what an impact it will have. Not only on happy users but on the environment, helping the circularity of the second hand trade. A win win win for fun, needed code, the environment, and Blocket moving into the future – in a new red dress!

Skills & Requirements

Who you are

We believe you are a backend developer with a few years hands-on experience of backend development working in a team. You are able to independently lead the development of new features, and enjoy discussing and debating code and solutions with your peers. You like sharing your knowledge with your cross functional team and also more junior developers and above all, you are curious and continuously strive to learn new things. We are often working in pairs so collaboration is another key. And the thinking and problem solving mindset. The goal is what we create as a team, not the techniques we use. As a developer in the team, we do not require you to be an ML expert. However, an interest in the field will of course bring some spice and glam to your days.
