You will be a part of…

...an international environment with offices around Europe with our headquarters in Stockholm, Sweden. You will join a fast and innovative environment and be part of an entrepreneurial and great-positioned company, growing at an exciting pace. Scrive is filled with caring, smart and committed people who know that we need to collaborate to win. We care about each other and encourage ourselves and each other in our aim to be better and grow, both as people and as a company. Our aim is, that a few years from now, you will be able to say; “We did that, I was a part of the Scrive Story.” 🚀

For us to keep on delivering the best product on the market and always be a step ahead on new features we will now strengthen our Platform Engineering team with a Haskell Developer. We believe that the person that we are looking for wants to conquer the world and defeat the old, slow giants of enterprise software.

We have several backend services written in Haskell using Servant and Happstack, interfacing to PostgreSQL using the hpqtypes library, and using the consumers library for managing jobs and queues. We have a dedicated frontend team for larger projects, but the Platform Engineering team also maintains a legacy React application, along with a minimal frontend and demo application written in Elm for some newer parts. Our code is pragmatic and uses language features that solve business needs. We don’t have rules on what can and cannot be used, as long as it satisfies a practical need.

The position is remote, available to anyone living in the EU, but if you are located in Stockholm you can also come to work at our wonderful HQ office in central Stockholm
