Fullstack developer to SVEA

Artificial intelligence is transforming society. AI Sweden is the national center for applied artificial intelligence and our mission is to accelerate the use of AI for the benefit of our society, our competitiveness, and for everyone living in Sweden. We drive impactful initiatives in areas such as healthcare, energy, and the public sector while pushing the boundaries of AI research and innovation in fields such as natural language processing and edge learning. Join us in harnessing the untapped value of AI to drive innovation and create sustainable value for Sweden.

We are now expanding our team and looking for an experienced, curious, and solution-oriented Full Stack Developer to help us build the next generation of AI-powered digital assistants.

About The Role

We are developing Svea - a shared digital assistant for the Swedish public sector. The initiative brings together technology, law, data and AI adoption to create a common, reliable, and secure AI solution for thousands of users across Sweden.

The project is now entering a major scale-up phase. As a Full Stack Developer, you will play a key role in taking Svea from prototype to a full-featured product. You’ll design intuitive user interfaces, integrate real-time interactions with powerful LLMs, and work closely with a small cross-functional team of developers and data scientists.

Your work will directly influence how Sweden’s public sector adopts and uses generative AI.

Your Main Responsibilities

• Design and develop high-quality software solutions for interacting with generative AI
• Build user-friendly, responsive, and accessible interfaces based on Figma designs
• Collaborate closely with designers, developers, and data scientists throughout the development cycle
• Implement and optimize real-time UI features such as streaming responses and live updates
• Explore and evaluate new technologies to improve performance and user experience
• Help users analyze and visualize data through intuitive tools and workflows
  
  

What You Bring (Must Have)

• 4+ years of experience as a full-stack developer building modern web applications
• A strong engineering mindset: you care about building reliable products, writing maintainable code, and improving how things work - and you’re comfortable jumping into a PHP/Laravel + Vue 3 codebase, even if you haven’t worked with that exact stack before
• Curiosity and drive: you enjoy learning, experimenting, and aren’t afraid to step outside your comfort zone
  
  

Nice to Have

• Experience with PHP/Laravel and Vue 3 (Composition API)
• Strong TypeScript skills
• Experience with real-time systems (WebSockets, Laravel Echo, Socket.io, Pusher, or similar)
• Solid understanding of SQL & relational databases (MySQL/PostgreSQL)
• Experience building and consuming REST APIs
• Experience with client-side databases (e.g. RxDB or offline-first solutions)
• Testing experience (PHPUnit/Pest and Vitest/Jest/Vue Testing Library)
• Comfortable translating Figma into pixel-perfect, responsive and accessible UI
  
  

Bonus points

• Experience building real-time UI interactions (streaming responses, notifications, chat-like UX)
• Performance optimization skills (caching, debouncing, indexing, lazy loading)
• Experience with monitoring/logging tools (Sentry, Grafana, Prometheus)
• Event tracking and analytics for product insights
• Experience with AI-powered interfaces, RAG setups, or data-intensive applications
  
  

Who You Are

You’re someone who enjoys autonomy, takes initiative, and thrives in fast-paced, impact-oriented environments. You don’t need to be an AI expert, but you believe in the potential of AI to improve society and you want to contribute to that transformation.

At AI Sweden, you’ll work alongside developers, linguists, policy specialists, journalists, historians, entrepreneurs, and leading AI researchers. We value diverse backgrounds and perspectives, and we believe they are essential to solving complex societal challenges.

Why work for AI Sweden?

To us, artificial intelligence is not only about tech, it’s a force for positive societal change. You'll be working alongside leading AI experts, scientists, journalists, linguists, policy professionals, entrepreneurs, change leaders, and many more. To work here, you don’t need to know “everything” about AI, but you need to believe in its potential to help shape our society for the better.

As an organization, we’re uniquely positioned at the sweet spot of governmental influence and startup agility. Small enough to stay adaptive and have fun but backed by and in close contact with both the government, academia and private and public sector.

Join us to make a real-world impact by contributing to initiatives that benefit society and tackle critical challenges. Be at the forefront of AI innovation, working with cutting-edge technologies and playing a key role in shaping the future of AI in Sweden.

And, within our mission, we can most certainly be a platform empowering you to realize your ideas. AI Sweden’s ability to empower partners and individual team members to do exceedingly well in their profession is a key success factor for driving positive and significant impact.

Naturally, we’re under a collective agreement (“kollektivavtal”) and offer everything that comes with it in terms of annual leave, pensions, wellness allowance (“friskvårdsbidrag”), and such.

In short, we like to believe we offer our team members a place to grow, an environment for personal development.

An equal and fair working environment

We strongly believe in diversity and inclusion and are acutely aware of the skewed gender balance in our industry. We actively strive to put together a diverse team in terms of age, gender and background.

At AI Sweden, we are committed to building diverse and inclusive teams. Some positions may be subject to export control regulations, which means that specific requirements may apply depending on the role. If relevant, we will inform you clearly during the recruitment process.
