Why we will love you

My name is Emelie, Engineering Manager within the Co-worker Engagements & Insights subdomain in Ingka Digital (IKEA). I’m now looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join one of my teams working with Ingka’s global internal communication channels including intranet and internal news, (built on SharePoint Online Modern), and internal video platform, (built on Kaltura).

As a Senior Software Engineer we believe you’ll join us in our strive to leverage the underlying platform, but also be inspired by the opportunity to build customizations to ensure the solution is fit to our organization and its purpose. Recent examples of customizations we’ve worked on include custom multilanguage solutions, and exploration of genAI for improved content quality and search optimization.

You share our vision of becoming the world’s leading multichannel home furnishing retailer and you believe good software is an essential ingredient of achieving that vision. We believe you have a great understanding of what simplicity and togetherness means. You know when to take and to give responsibility for what needs to be done. You care about your team and its software, and you continuously push for improvements in quality and speed. Together we will design, develop, deploy, release, and run our applications.

What you'll be doing day to day

As a full stack engineer with platform focus you will be part of a DevOps team that covers application management, architecture, and web development in SharePoint, Azure and Kaltura.

The products we work with are primary communication channels for our 170 000+ co-workers around the world. We work very closely with multiple business stakeholders and help them bring out the message and needed information we want to convey to the many co-workers. This means we’re always evolving and challenging ourselves to bring top class quality and experience for our colleagues.

The Senior Software Engineer we are looking for should:

• Have advanced training in computer science or similar experience through keeping up with current best practices in your areas of expertise
• Have an interest in understanding and leveraging existing features in bought platforms, in our case SharePoint and Kaltura video platform.
• Challenge code solutions with configurable solutions and ensure we don’t build features that already exist.
• Not be afraid to share your opinion and join conversations with other product teams as well as platform vendors, and business stakeholders.
• Have a curious nature and actively acquire new knowledge and skills,
• Champion new methods, digital systems, and processes to improve performance
• Be experienced in working in an Agile and DevOps environment and thrive on taking full accountability for the products and the customer experience
• Get energised by delivering high quality software in an agile environment, with a focus on well-functioning software ecosystems, democratic data, smart infrastructure and building a resilient foundation

YOUR SKILLS INCLUDE:

You should be comfortable working independently in all aspects of configurations in SharePoint and be able to drive best practice within this area. This means you will take an active part in the team collaboration and engage in the agile development life cycle, from user story analysis to maintaining solutions in production and everything in between.

To be a good fit you will ideally have experience in several of the following areas:

• Strong knowledge of software engineering practices including design, development and documentation using industry standard tools
• Extensive knowledge of advanced configuration in SharePoint generally and SharePoint Online Modern primarily.
• Experience and/or interest to learn more about search analysis and enhancement options.
• Broad experience from various system integration scenarios
• Good understanding of development with a security and privacy mindset

You should feel comfortable working with a variety of technologies, i.e tech agnostic.

Prior knowledge of Kaltura video platform and Development in SharePoint is beneficial.

At IKEA, you’re welcome no matter where you come from, what you believe, and what you look like. We don’t even care how you have furnished your home. We’re interested in you simply because you’re you. Our different views, backgrounds, and personalities make us better understand our customers, give us more fun at work and spark more and better ideas. Perhaps your unique take on something could lead to a great idea that creates a better everyday life for the many people.

Studies show that members of underrepresented communities don't apply for jobs unless they're 100% "qualified". If this is part of the reason you hesitate to apply, we like you to reconsider and give it a chance. Maybe your profile fits our needs much better than you think. We look forward to receiving your application.
