As the most popular real estate portal in Sweden, Hemnet receives more than 500 million visits every year, from home-loving people looking for their new home. We are a data-heavy company that strives to make even more data-informed decisions every day. The Platform team at Hemnet is responsible for providing the infrastructure needed, primarily cloud-hosted in AWS, but with an evolving Data Platform in GCP as well, to ensure a first class browsing experience to everyone looking for a new home in Sweden (basically everyone in Sweden…). The team also delivers an exceptional Developer Experience to all other Development teams at Hemnet, allowing them to deliver a constant flow of experiments and new features, every day, using the DevOps pipelines for CI/CD tasks provided by the Platform team. We believe in self-service, striving to allow all developers to be able to solve as many of their tasks as possible themselves, with a minimum of interaction from the team. This requires a constant focus on best practices, and to define and deliver platforms that fulfil all needs. What will you do in the Platform team at Hemnet?
