Arbetsbeskrivning

Nordic Investin has been asked to find a Senior Python Backend Engineer Geospatial Services for one of our partner companies. You want technical choices, delivery and production behaviour to reinforce each other, even when the constraints are difficult.

The partner is strengthening its capability in scalable geospatial services for planning analysis and operational decisions. You will connect Python, FastAPI and PostgreSQL and PostGIS while ensuring that spatial algorithms and container platforms receive appropriate discipline. The aim is practical progress that colleagues can use, leaders can evaluate and the organisation can sustain.

The environment rewards early questions, visible trade-offs and engineering discipline. Security and operability belong in the design.

You will work with product, architecture, security, operations and domain colleagues. The partner values short feedback loops, evidence from real systems and direct communication.

This role calls for independent judgement and the ability to raise the quality around you. You are expected to make trade-offs visible, recognise when a decision needs wider expertise and move work forward without creating unnecessary process.

Own the practical direction for scalable geospatial services for planning analysis and operational decisions.

Translate goals and constraints into a clear approach for Python and FastAPI.

Establish useful standards, routines or decision artefacts around PostgreSQL and PostGIS.

Coordinate stakeholders and dependencies affecting spatial algorithms.

Use evidence and measurable outcomes to improve container platforms.

Strengthen knowledge sharing and sustainable ownership through API design.

Relevant experience delivering scalable geospatial services for planning analysis and operational decisions in a demanding environment.

Strong working knowledge of Python and FastAPI.

Practical experience applying PostgreSQL and PostGIS and spatial algorithms.

Ability to assess priorities, risks and trade-offs involving container platforms.

Evidence of clear stakeholder communication and dependable end-to-end ownership.

Professional English and the judgement to work with sensitive or business-critical information.

Experience that would add value

Experience from mobility energy public planning and logistics.

Exposure to API design in a cross-functional or multi-team environment.

Swedish language skills or experience working across Nordic organisations.

A background that can succeed here

Your background may be product engineering, platform work, enterprise technology or consulting. What matters is technical depth connected to user and business consequences. Direct experience of scalable geospatial services for planning analysis and operational decisions is valuable, while adjacent experience counts when it shows transferable judgement.

What makes the opportunity interesting

The role offers meaningful ownership and the opportunity to influence both the solution and the decisions around it. The focus on scalable geospatial services for planning analysis and operational decisions gives the opportunity a clear mission and room to influence priorities and success measures.

The exact partner, employment model, compensation, start date and working arrangement will be explained openly during the process. Nordic Investin will make sure you understand the opportunity before asking you to make a decision.

The recruitment conversation

Nordic Investin will focus on decisions you have made: the context, alternatives, result and what you would change today. You will also have room to ask direct questions and test whether the role, mandate and partner environment are right for you.

Apply with your CV or LinkedIn profile and a short note about a relevant system, platform or technical change you helped improve. Nordic Investin welcomes different routes into the profession and assesses evidence, judgement and potential alongside formal titles.
