Arbetsbeskrivning

About us

Glimra is building drought insurance for farmers — starting in Sweden, with the aim of going global. The models decide whether a farmer gets paid after a drought, and the platform takes a farmer from quote to signed policy to payout. We are looking for one of our first engineers.

What you’d work on

You’d start on the web application — TypeScript all the way: Next.js on the front end, NestJS on the back end, running on Kubernetes with Helm and Terraform underneath. You’d own features from design to production: the purchase flow, identity and payment integrations, and the services behind them.

It doesn’t stop at the application. Behind the product there are data pipelines, a modelling platform and satellite imagery, and the work widens as the product grows — the role evolves with it.

It’s greenfield. We’re building the platform right now, so whoever joins gets to shape it.

What we’re looking for

• Strong across the stack — you’ve built and run real applications. Our stack is TypeScript, but that’s not a hard requirement: we care about engineering judgment more than ecosystem depth, and the modelling side already runs on Python.
• Comfortable owning something end to end in an early-stage company: design, build, test, deploy, operate.
• You write tests first and treat infrastructure as part of the job, not someone else’s problem.
• You can explain a technical decision to someone who doesn’t code.
• Payments, identity (BankID) or regulated-industry experience is an advantage, not a requirement.

How we work

We write tests first, we agree the architecture up front, and we record decisions so they don’t get re-argued in the next review. Those decisions feed the skills our AI agents follow; reviews run the same way — agents analyze first, a human decides. And how we work is itself up for revision: we adapt the process as we learn.

We want team players, not rock stars. Direct feedback both ways, a lot of ownership handed over, and people sharing what they’re doing as they go instead of going quiet and coming back when it’s done.
