Auctionet is a marketplace where auction houses from Sweden, the UK, Finland, Spain, Germany and Denmark sell furniture, art, design items, collectibles and more. We are a small, tight-knit Product & Development team, and are now in search of our next Senior Web Developer for the Marketplace team – responsible for the system used by almost 1 million consumers today!
The Marketplace team is responsible for building the end-customer-facing auction marketplace at auctionet.com, including our iOS and Android apps. The ambition is to create the world's best auction marketplace, filled with interesting items and content, for buyers across the globe.
A few examples of possible upcoming projects for the Marketplace team that might give you a sense of what you'll be working on:
Our main stack is Ruby on Rails, Turbo and Stimulus.
We’re into modern technology and agile methodology. We try new things constantly and keep the things we like – such as pair programming, automated testing, retrospectives, code review, trunk-based development with continuous deployment, and DevOps. We've documented some of our practices in our devbook.
We are taking inspiration from Shape Up, alternating 4 weeks of planned work with 2 weeks of "cooldown" – tying up loose ends, doing maintenance, improving our tooling and trying out new languages or frameworks.
We operate from our offices in central Stockholm and Malmö, with the option to work remotely. We value your well-being, offering flexible work hours, discouraging overtime, and encouraging full use of your Wellness Grant. You'll enjoy six weeks of paid vacation, along with a work phone and the computer of your choice to help you excel. Beyond supporting your lifestyle, we’re committed to your growth. That’s why we provide a generous budget and time allowance for attending conferences, code retreats, or courses, so you can continue learning and advancing your skills.
We contribute to open source, release our own libraries, and attend and arrange meetups.
We're looking for an experienced Ruby on Rails developer with an eye for detail who likes to take ownership over both big and small projects, and take them from start to production. You write clean, maintainable code that is well tested. We also believe you have:
We also value if you have an interest in art, design or collectibles. An interest in product design is also a plus.
The role is mostly back-end heavy, but since we're a small team you'll often touch the front-end as well. Sometimes also our native apps (which are mostly web views).
Please note we are only accepting candidates resident in Sweden at this time.
If that is you, apply now! Got questions? Reach out to our team anytime.
In the interview process, we'll discuss some of your existing work, or a small take-home Rails exercise, or we'll build a small feature inside our web app. We don't do "gotcha" whiteboard interviews.
Auctionet was founded in 2011 by a team of people with unique experience of online auctions. Read more about Auctionet here.
In 2021 Auctionet acquired the auction house Stockholms Auktionsverk, and we are now by far the largest auction marketplace in the Nordics, and one of the larger auction marketplaces in the world. With this acquisition, Auctionet owns and operates both the oldest auction house in the world (1674) and the second oldest (1681), which means we have been working with sustainability for 350(!) years.
Join us in our mission to help new owners inspire new life into old items!
