Senior Software Engineer at nxtedition (Malmö / Hybrid)
Build the tools behind the world’s fastest newsrooms
At nxtedition we are reinventing how broadcasters produce and deliver stories. Our platform powers live TV, news and social content for media houses across the world from Expressen in Sweden to public broadcasters in Greenland and Monaco.
We combine scripting, automation, media handling and real time publishing into one system that runs mission critical production environments every day.
You will join a small senior tech team in Malmö where engineers do not wait for tickets but solve problems, shape solutions and take ownership of both product and delivery.
The platform is already built and in production. The focus now is on refining, evolving and extending it in close collaboration with customers.
You will work close to both code and users and your work will ship fast and have direct impact.
Technical responsibilities and requirements
This is a hands on engineering role where you will work across frontend, backend or fullstack depending on your strengths, always close to a complex and evolving production system.
We are looking for someone who enjoys working in deep technical systems where practical decisions, performance and reliability matter more than process overhead.
You should have experience in:
Node.js development and or frontend development in TypeScript and JavaScript
Frontend frameworks such as React and libraries like MobX
Strong problem solving skills and experience delivering production grade systems
Experience working in environments with high autonomy and limited specification
Comfortable contributing across the stack in complex product environments
It is a strong plus if you have worked with or are curious about:
NoSQL databases such as CouchDB and RocksDB
Search and observability tools such as Elasticsearch and Kibana
Linux environments and containerization using Docker or Kubernetes
Media related tools such as FFmpeg, C++, CasparCG, Vulkan or CUDA
AI integrations such as Whisper or Llama models
Reactive programming and real time systems such as RxJS and CRDT based architectures
Cloud environments such as AWS
Open source projects or contributions
You will also work with integrations towards third party services and social media platforms and help evolve a system that operates in real time production environments.
Who we are looking for
You are a senior engineer who is comfortable in environments where structure is light but responsibility is high.
You have likely worked in a few different companies, ideally including scale ups or smaller product teams, where you have had broad ownership and worked close to both product and users.
You are used to navigating complexity without detailed specifications and you enjoy shaping solutions rather than just implementing them.
You are comfortable:
making technical decisions in evolving systems
working directly with customers and users
taking ownership from idea to production
operating in a small senior team where everyone contributes broadly
Swedish language
You enjoy building systems that are live, used and constantly evolving.
Why nxtedition
This is not a large organisation with layers of process.
It is a small team building a complex real world system used by newsrooms globally.
High ownership and technical freedom
Direct impact on a live production platform
Close collaboration with users and customers
Small senior team of around eight developers
Hybrid setup with two to three days per week in the Malmö office
We value engineers who care deeply about their craft and want space to focus on solving hard technical problems rather than organisational overhead.
You will be part of a culture where speed, responsibility and trust matter more than process. Developers are expected to think, decide and ship.
