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 automated Linux platforms for business-critical applications. You will connect Linux, configuration management and shell and Python while ensuring that virtualisation and hardening 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. How you will work 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. What you will do Own the practical direction for automated Linux platforms for business-critical applications. Translate goals and constraints into a clear approach for Linux and configuration management. Establish useful standards, routines or decision artefacts around shell and Python. Coordinate stakeholders and dependencies affecting virtualisation. Use evidence and measurable outcomes to improve hardening. Strengthen knowledge sharing and sustainable ownership through observability. What you will bring Relevant experience delivering automated Linux platforms for business-critical applications in a demanding environment. Strong working knowledge of Linux and configuration management. Practical experience applying shell and Python and virtualisation. Ability to assess priorities, risks and trade-offs involving hardening. 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 product companies hosting providers and industrial technology. Exposure to observability 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 automated Linux platforms for business-critical applications is valuable, while adjacent experience counts when it shows transferable judgement.

The focus on automated Linux platforms for business-critical applications 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.
