About Handelsbanken's new digital unit

Handelsbanken's new digital unit is established as a modern, digital organization, having ambitions to build the best digital-first mobile and web banking applications for the retail banking market. To succeed with this, we need experienced Senior Frontend Engineers to help shape and ship the product and define the culture of the new digital unit.

We have ambitious goals, fast pace, lots of energy and knowledge of what this means in terms of investments and willingness to change. In the digital unit, you will play a crucial role in creating the customer experience, while also shaping a great team culture, product, features, and customer journey. We also work continuously to have diversity among our employees in terms of for example gender, experience and nationality in order to build great teams.

What will your role be as a Frontend Engineer?

As a Frontend Engineer, you will work with a team of designers, product owners, DevOps experts, and fellow Frontend and Backend Engineers on creating an amazing digital experience.

Your day-to-day will consist of implementing stories from the backlog in a modern, agile work environment, taking ownership and pride in writing well-crafted and tested code. You will be part of building a new banking application from scratch, integrating with the existing core banking system.

To thrive in this position, we imagine that you are someone with product acumen, high attention to detail, and quality. You need to be able to collaborate with agile product owners to refine requirements and break these down into tasks, and this takes strong communication and collaboration skills. The unit is still in the early stages, and you need the flexibility to apply start-up methodology and speed in a corporate, regulated environment.

Most importantly, we want someone who is motivated by making a positive impact on a traditional industry together with the rest of your team.

• Experience with Typescript and React
• Experience defining interface contracts and integrating with REST APIs
• Experience with native Android and iOS development

• Experience in a cross-functional, full-stack setup with end-to-end feature delivery (joint squads combining product, backend, frontend, quality engineering and testing)

• BSc or MSc in a technology-related field or relevant work experience

Do not hesitate to apply even if you do not check all of the boxes above.We are recruiting for roles of different seniority and character at the moment and will take a look at your background and decide where you could fit in - give it a try!
