Job Description
On our path to becoming the world's favorite way to shop, we’re assembling an unparalleled global talent network, accelerating individual careers, and disrupting entire industries. We are on a mission to liberate humanity from all the meaningless time spent managing their purchases and finances, so they can do more of what they love. We’re in search of global talent eager to embrace a hypergrowth atmosphere and defy their own expectations. Engineering at Klarna is an inspired, customer focused community, dedicated to crafting solutions that redefine our industry. Working in small, highly collaborative Agile teams, you and your team will have a clear mission and ownership of an important outcome that supports Klarna and our customers. At Klarna we optimise for quality, flow, fast feedback, focusing on end-to-end ownership, continuous improvement, testing, monitoring and experimentation. We aim for teams that are inclusive, helpful, and have a strong sense of ownership for the things they build. Our engineers make some of the most significant decisions for the company and we are looking for bold, open and curious developers. As a Klarnaut, you’ll be inspired to contribute to the growth of Europe’s most highly valued fintech and your work will reach millions of users.
What you'll get to do
- Provide tools and automation to support our high-scale infrastructure
- Ensure our most critical, distributed services, are highly available to millions of consumers
- Collaborate in a dynamic and autonomous environment and work closely with other SRE & DBA engineers
- Be part of a team that will take full operational responsibility for the services as well as on-call rotation
- Share your knowledge and build creative solutions while helping the team evolve best practices
Who you are
- You are able to drive change and often ask yourself why we do things the way we do. You understand the importance of collaboration both in and beyond your team to ensure quality results. It’s natural if you have not done everything we do at Klarna - instead you see this as an opportunity to learn.
To succeed in this role, we think you should have
- Experience of Infrastructure as Code (IaC) and CI/CD tools
- Familiarity with scripting languages (ideally Python)
- Experience with Monitoring & logging tasks
- Experience of any cloud provider
- Good communication skills in English
What we offer: Diversity & Community With our diversity of skills, perspectives and backgrounds, we can create, innovate, and disrupt like no other. Diversity is part of who we are, and essential to our success.
Ownership & Impact Here, every voice matters. We’re organized into hundreds of small teams, each run like a start-up, focused on their own problem-space.
Trust & Collaboration Successes and failures are won together at Klarna in a melting pot of teams. Win, lose, and learn, we’re on this path together. The Klarna Work Policy is designed to make sure we foster team collaboration while also ensuring a productive and flexible work environment. We work 2 days per week in the office on agreed days, and then 3 flexible days. We’re also providing each Klarnaut with an annual financial contribution to improve their flexible work life whether they use it to upgrade their work accessories, or their home office space!
Challenges & Rewards We take a very Swedish approach to benefits. Support for parents, health and wellness perks—we’ve got you covered.
