From live enrollment systems used by governments around the world to high-performance data capture with uncompromising quality, we're committed to making identity secure, efficient, and accessible. Our technology is made in Sweden, meets world-class standards (ICAO, ISO, etc.), and serves mission-critical applications globally.

We're looking for a Strategic Account Developer who thrives on complex challenges, deep customer relationships, and long-term strategic impact. The Strategic Account Developer is responsible for managing and expanding Speed Identity's customer relationships. The role exists to secure long-term revenue growth through consultative, solution-based sales and ensuring customer requirements are fully captured and addressed.
