Experiment and iterate
As Sweden's largest housing portal - and one of the most used digital products in Sweden - millions of users enjoy what we build every week. Although we have been around for twenty years, and engaged so many people already, we are as playful and fast-moving as a startup.
At Hemnet, you'll part of creating the future of how people sell and buy their homes. Experimenting, evaluating and building will part of your day. Our large amount of users gives us data driven guidance in a short time. What we build in the morning is often out in production for our users already after lunch.
The development department is the biggest team at Hemnet with around 60 people. We are six small, cross-functional teams, all working in an agile and self-propelled way, playing a big part of the full product development cycle.
We are building products for people looking to buy a new home, people looking to sell a property, property brokers, and our b2b partners. We also develop a powerful, approachable and stable application platform enabling the development teams to release and maintain their products. This means that we develop a variety of different technical solutions, products and tools at Hemnet, to mention a few: Tools to to discover locations, for recommended listings and for notifications, API:s, payment solutions, search tools, integrations, tools to provide data and for price calculation, back office systems, and tools for CI/CD, release pipeline and monitoring.
Why do you enjoy working at Hemnet?
At Hemnet I get to come up with my own ideas, take part in design decisions and have great scope to run my own initiatives. I'm part of it all really.
One thing I like about working at Hemnet is our technical environment where we can make continuous changes and improvements. The time from an approved pull request to live in production is about fifteen minutes. Another thing I like is the freedom we have to choose the tools we are working with
I like the relaxed, positive atmosphere, and the people working here. And being part of a cross functional team. In our team everyone has a say in what features we develop and how we develop them. I enjoy being able to influence that together with my team
As part of our development department you'll work together with around 60 other people - developers, UX designers, user researchers, data analysts and product managers. Working closely together as we do means that you learn from others and that others learn from you.
At Hemnet you get to experiment, grow as an individual and build for millions of users. This while helping people find their new homes, or just get inspired. We hope that this sounds interesting to you!
