About the Role

We're at a point where our data setup needs to evolve.

Over time, different systems and solutions have been built to support the business. While they've served us well, they're no longer enough for where we're going next. We want to create a modern, scalable data platform that supports better decision-making, advanced analytics, and future AI initiatives.

As Head of Data, you'll take ownership of that journey.

This is a role for someone who enjoys building not just managing. You'll define the direction, make key technical decisions, and work closely with a strong team to bring that vision to life.

What You'll Be Responsible For

Defining the Data Strategy
You'll set the long-term vision for how data is structured, stored, and used across the organisation. This includes selecting the right architecture and ensuring it supports both current and future needs.

Designing the Platform
You'll evaluate and implement a modern cloud-based data platform (warehouse/lakehouse), balancing scalability, performance, and cost.

Leading the Migration Journey
You'll plan and execute the transition from existing systems to a unified environment-ensuring stability, data integrity, and minimal disruption along the way.

Leading the Team
You'll work with a team of experienced, Sweden-based data engineers. Your role is to guide, support, and challenge them, creating an environment where people take ownership and do their best work.

Working Across the Business
You'll collaborate with stakeholders from different parts of the organisation, helping them understand what's possible with data and how it can create real value.

Driving Best Practices
You'll establish standards for data quality, governance, security, and documentation, ensuring the platform is reliable and trusted.

Technology & Environment

You'll have a strong voice in shaping the tech stack. We expect you to bring experience and perspective rather than follow a fixed setup.

You've likely worked with:

* Cloud data platforms such as Snowflake, Databricks, or BigQuery
* Python for data engineering, automation, or ML-related workflows
* BI tools like Power BI, Tableau, or Looker
* Modern cloud environments and distributed data systems

Who We're Looking For

We're looking for someone who combines technical depth with leadership and pragmatism.

* You've built or significantly evolved a data platform before
* You have experience with large-scale data migrations
* You're comfortable making architectural decisions and explaining them clearly
* You've led engineering teams, ideally in a Swedish or similar work culture
* You value collaboration, ownership, and low hierarchy
* You're still hands-on enough to challenge technical decisions when needed

Overview
We're looking for a CTO who wants to do more than just lead a tech team - someone who wants to shape how the company thinks, builds, and scales through technology.

You'll be a key part of the leadership team, setting the technical direction and making sure everything we build actually moves the business forward. This role is about combining big-picture thinking with real execution - turning ideas into systems that work, scale, and last.



What You'll Be Doing

You'll define and drive our technology strategy, making sure it aligns with where the company is headed. A big part of your role will be building and developing a high‑performing engineering function, creating a culture people actually want to be part of.

You'll ensure our systems are secure, scalable, and ready for growth, while staying on top of emerging tools and technologies - including knowing when to adopt them and when to avoid unnecessary complexity. You'll collaborate closely with product, commercial, and operational teams, translating ideas into real outcomes and maintaining smooth, reliable, and secure delivery.

You'll introduce the right processes - things like Agile, DevOps, and CI/CD - but in a way that's pragmatic and suited to how we work. You'll also manage budgets, resources, and key technology partnerships, and act as a trusted technical voice for leadership, investors, and other stakeholders.





What We're Looking For

* You've operated at a senior level before (CTO, VP Engineering, or similar)
* You have a strong technical foundation - you understand how things are built, not just how to manage them
* You've helped scale products, platforms, or teams in a growing company
* You're comfortable with modern tech stacks and cloud environments (AWS, Azure, GCP)
* You understand security, data privacy, and what "good" looks like in production systems
* You're a strong communicator who can bridge technical and non-technical worlds
* You think commercially - you understand how tech decisions impact the business



Nice to Have

* Experience in our industry (e.g. fintech, SaaS, healthtech)
* Background in startups or scale-ups
* Exposure to fundraising, investors, or M&A
* Interest or experience in data, AI, or advanced analytics



What Success Looks Like

* We have a sucsessful platform that scales without constant issues
* The engineering team is strong, motivated, and delivering consistently
* Technology decisions clearly support business growth
* We're continuously improving - not stagnating



What You'll Get

* Competitive salary, plus bonus and/or equity
* Flexibility around how and where you work
* Real ownership and the ability to shape the company's future
* A fast-moving, collaborative environment
* Opportunities to grow as the company grows
