Company Description The KTH Developer Society is a student-led engineering collective at KTH Royal Institute of Technology, focused on turning academic knowledge into production-ready technology. Members work in cross-functional teams that combine engineering and strategic thinking to design, build, and scale real-world digital products and infrastructure. Current flagship projects include building bare-metal server infrastructure with the Student Developer Club of TU Darmstadt and a joint ML-OPS project with KTH Robotics Society. The society offers hands-on experience in both hardware and software, preparing members for product-oriented technology leadership. Through partnerships with companies, the society provides a pipeline of ambitious talent and opportunities for joint technical challenges and recruitment. Role Description As a Software Developer, you will contribute to the design, implementation, testing, and deployment of software components across ongoing projects. Day-to-day tasks may include building backend and frontend features, integrating services with server infrastructure, writing clean and maintainable code, and participating in code reviews.
