About Carla
At Carla, we believe that more people should be able to drive electric vehicles. Therefore, we have set out to build the safest, most convenient and transparent way to sell, buy, or lease an electric car. Carla was founded in 2020 in Stockholm, with strong VC backing. We are now in an exciting growth phase and are looking for like minded people. That means being driven, humble, and excited about creating outstanding and effective experiences and smart solutions.
Recruitment need
Carla is a startup in an exciting growth phase, and we are looking for a skilled Backend Engineer to contribute to the technical development of products within our Product & Tech team. Your primary focus will be solving important and complex problems with high-quality code, primarily in Go, while also being comfortable and keen to work end-to-end when needed in our TypeScript / React frontends.
We value engineers who combine strong engineering fundamentals with curiosity for modern tools, including AI-assisted development, to increase their impact and effectiveness. You will help ensure our systems are robust, scalable and reliable, while also contributing to a codebase that is easy to understand, maintain and evolve.
If you enjoy working close to real business problems, collaborating across product and engineering, and building efficient systems that drive business success, this role is for you!
Responsibilities include, but are not limited to:
Hands-On Backend Development
Write clean, efficient, and maintainable code, primarily in Go for our backend, while being comfortable and keen to work end-to-end in our React and TypeScript frontend when needed
Use modern development tools, including AI-assisted workflows, to improve your speed, quality and impact as an engineer
Design, develop and enhance backend services and APIs that are critical to our operations, including inspection, workshop planning, quality control and beyond
Debug and resolve technical issues quickly to ensure the stability and reliability of our systems
System Optimization and Improvement
Regularly evaluate and improve system performance, focusing on scalability, responsiveness and reliability
Improve our codebase by making it easier to understand, test, maintain and evolve over time
Collaborate closely with backend and frontend developers, product managers and designers to ensure seamless integration between backend services and user-facing applications
Manage technical debt by refactoring code and improving existing systems
Collaboration and Problem-Solving
Work closely with cross-functional teams to deliver pragmatic solutions that align with business needs
Participate in code reviews, providing constructive feedback to improve code quality, clarity and long-term maintainability across the team
Qualifications:
We believe that the ideal candidate has:
3-4+ years of experience in backend development and solid software architecture fundamentals
Strong hands-on experience with Go and building reliable backend services and APIs
Experience with PostgreSQL and cloud-based architectures
Comfortable working with TypeScript and React when needed, or motivated to grow into that part of the stack
Curious and pragmatic in using AI-assisted development tools to improve engineering effectiveness, all the way from planning to execution and reviews
Good communication skills and a collaborative, product-minded approach
A plus if you have experience building systems that support operational workflows or internal tools at scale
What is in it for you?
Most of all, this is a fantastic opportunity to work for a category-defining company, with great values, and a business model that doesn't talk about sustainability - but is based on it.
Apart from that, we offer:
Joining one of Sweden’s fastest growing scaleups
A career-defining role at a startup and an opportunity to grow and learn from knowledgeable co-workers
We’re a start-up, which means we work smarter, not harder. Life-work balance still plays an important role in creating long-lasting productivity and output
A workplace that believes strength is found in diversity. We hire people regardless of background, education, experience or gender
Market competitive salary
So, If you are looking to join a capable and collaborative team and directly impact both product quality and team effectiveness, apply today! We’re fast, both in terms of recruitment and when it comes to growing our business. We have no plans on stopping anytime soon, and hopefully, this is where you come in!
For this role, location is flexible. If you are based in Stockholm, you are welcome to work from our office, but we are equally open to remote candidates. Today, our team members work from Stockholm, Gothenburg Germany and Poland.
