Arbetsbeskrivning

We know it, you know it. Most companies ramble on about purpose and making the world a better place. And pretty often it feels a bit… well, forced. But we’d like to think that our story is special for real.

Our founders, Shadi Bitar and Ninos Malki, came to Sweden from Syria when they were kids. Books became their compass, guiding them through the maze of life, and helping them shape their destinies in a new world.

Their dream was bold: What if they could unlock the world of books for everyone, making knowledge and inspiration accessible to all? Fast forward a few years, and the tale of Nextory was born.

At Nextory, we've crafted a revolutionary monthly subscription that empowers our users to devour books like never before, be it through reading or listening. It's not just a product; it's a passport to endless adventure and enlightenment.

And now, we're on a quest to find our next senior software engineer - frontend -, someone as passionate as we are about making the world a happier place and enriching lives through the world of reading. Join our extraordinary team, and let's script a future where every day is a chapter of discovery, and every book is a key to a richer life.

WHAT YOU WILL BE DOING

As a senior software engineer - frontend - at Nextory you will work with developing our website to create an amazing first impression that stands out to our to-be customers.

You will be maintaining a high website performance and enhancing web SEO. The position is based in Stockholm at the Nextory HQ, Odenplan.
