Stockholm, Stockholm, Sweden AVTECH Sweden Full time

About Us

AVTECH is a Swedish SaaS company in the aviation industry, headquartered on the 23rd floor of Kista Science Tower in Stockholm. We develop advanced digital services that help airlines worldwide optimize their operations – from fuel savings and flight trajectory optimization to improved punctuality and reduced environmental impact.

We are in a strong growth phase and are now expanding our product development team with an experienced
Backend Developer
. This is a key opportunity to join a technically skilled and collaborative team where your work will be directly used by airlines around the world.

The Role

We are looking for a
Backend Developer
with around five years of professional experience and a strong analytical mindset. You should have a solid foundation in computer science and experience working on backend systems in a professional setting.

In this role, you will help shape and build the backbone of AVTECH's software solutions – ensuring scalability, robustness, and performance. You will work across a modern stack that involves databases, APIs, and cloud services. While we primarily use
Python and Django
, your experience in other backend environments is equally valuable.

We are looking for someone who enjoys understanding the system as a whole: from design principles and architecture to performance, maintainability, and operational excellence. You take pride in doing things the right way and want to build systems that last.

What You'll Do

  • Design, build, and maintain backend components for AVTECH's aviation optimization services.
  • Contribute to the evolution of our architecture and development practices.
  • Write clean, maintainable, and efficient code with a focus on scalability and long-term quality.
  • Collaborate with other developers, architects, and stakeholders to design and implement new functionality.
  • Contribute to improving system performance, stability, and observability.
  • Be part of a cross-functional team where software goes directly into production and is used worldwide.

What We're Looking For

  • A university degree in computer science, software engineering, or a similar technical field.
  • Approximately
    five years of professional experience
    in backend software development.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with a good grasp of software design principles (e.g., SOLID, DRY) and backend concepts (e.g., message queues, APIs, data modeling, security).
  • Experience in at least one major backend language (Python/Django experience is a plus).
  • Familiarity with cloud environments, databases, and CI/CD workflows.
  • A self-driven mindset and a genuine motivation to build robust, maintainable systems.
  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills.
  • You already live in the Greater Stockholm area.
  • Fluency in English (spoken and written) is required. Swedish is a plus.

What We Offer

  • A central role in building software that directly impacts the global aviation industry.
  • The opportunity to work with modern technology in a fast-growing company.
  • A hybrid workplace (on-site and remote on certain days) with flexible hours, based in Kista Science Tower, Stockholm.
  • Competitive salary, bonus scheme, and attractive benefits.
  • A supportive and international team where your work has a direct impact.
