We serve billions of events daily with minimum latency to ensure our newsrooms always have the latest information at their fingertips.

  • Knowledge of, or some experience with developing services and applications on, cloud solutions such as AWS, Azure, or GCP.
  • Currently, we have most of our services running on the JVM with the main programming languages being Scala, and Kotlin - being familiar with and able to code using a JVM language (Kotlin/Java/Scala) is needed.
  • At least a Bachelor’s degree or similar relevant work experience in a quantitative field such as computer science, informatics, applied mathematics, or statistics
  • Good communication skills with fluency in English.


Nice to have:

  • Some hands-on experience with some of the state-of-the-art big data technologies, such as Kafka, Flink, and/or Spark.
  • Programming in Python.
  • Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and infrastructure-as-code tools like Terraform.
  • Familiarity with DevOps, concurrent/multithreaded programming, or distributed systems are all advantageous.
  • Any experience serving on-call for any production systems.
  • Interest in having an impact on our organization by keeping cross-team dependencies and relationships in mind when engineering solutions.


Why Join Us?

  • A high degree of influence in shaping and developing your role further.
  • A creative and up-to-date environment that offers great learning opportunities and active engineering communities.
  • Flexible working hours and a hybrid work mode, with offices in Oslo and Stockholm.
  • International environment with colleagues from around the globe.
  • Comprehensive health insurance and wellness offers.
  • Insider access to premium news and podcasts.


Our Interview Process:

  • Recruiter screening (30 min): An initial call with a talent acquisition partner or the team's manager. We’ll tell you a bit about us, answer any questions you may have, learn about your background and what you’re looking to do.
  • Home assignment and code review (60 min): a take-home exercise with a follow-up discussion where you meet two of our engineers. We will provide preparation material and context beforehand. The time commitment for completing the home assignment is not more than 3 hours of work.
  • Values interview (30 min): meeting the Engineering Manager and Product Manager of the team for a short discussion, such as figuring out whether you’d enjoy being a teammate focusing on your previous experiences as a teammate in various situations.
  • Offer extended! If you are interested in talking to more potential coworkers or have additional questions, we will also arrange any additional chats for you.

Om arbetsgivaren

Independent Journalism - That’s our business

Schibsted Media Group includes some of the strongest media brands in the Nordics, including VG, Aftenposten, E24, Bergens Tidende, Stavanger Aftenblad, Aftonbladet, Svenska Dagbladet, Omni, and Podme.

Every day, nearly seven million people turn to our editorial media to stay informed, engaged, and entertained through text, audio, images, and video. The trust of our users is crucial to us. To maintain this trust, we prioritise truth, verifiability, and transparency.

Our 2,800 employees are based in Oslo, Bergen, Stavanger, Stockholm, Helsinki, Krakow, and Gdansk. We rely on all of them to succeed, through close collaboration across editorial teams, product and technology environments, and subscription and advertising units.

What began as Christian Schibsted's small printing business in Christiania (now Oslo) in 1839 has grown into one of the leading media companies in the Nordics. For nearly two centuries, our journalism has empowered people, built communities, exposed abuses of power, and strengthened democracies. Our democracies depend on independent journalism. That’s our business.
