factor10 is hiring

Do you believe that software can make the world a radically better place? Do you get your kicks from solving complex business problems alongside smart people? Do you want to work remotely and still build close relationships with your colleagues and customers?

Join us

factor10 is a small, remote-first Swedish software consultancy who travel within Sweden for client work as needed. We’re coding architects solving complex, commercial problems. Consultants who TDD their way to transformation. Technologists who don’t start with the tech-stack.

Revenue Releasers and Bottleneck Openers

Repeating what’s been done before is not our job. Customers describe us as ‘revenue releasers’ and we like to be ‘bottleneck openers.’ If you join us, you’ll be getting new products to market quicker, helping businesses embrace digitization and innovate new business models and delivering better software together, faster.

Deliberately thoughtful and a bit different

We’re continually learning and having more impact than we ever imagined. Our weekly geek fika, bi-monthly tillsammanstorsdag and cross-project retrospectives are just some of the activities that keep us connected. Our utilisation and business model result in better worklife balance than many people in our line of work. We each have a target of 80% client time with 20% to build relationships, develop factor10, collaborate and connect with the software development community. Our consultants use this time to write blogs and articles, speak at conferences and contribute to the open source community.

We’d love to hear from people who:

  • turn complex business problems into simple, functional system architectures and high-quality code
  • care about delivering value by writing clean, simple, maintainable code using test-driven development (TDD) and continuous integration (CI) practices
  • prefer making people around them smarter, rather than being the smartest person in the room
  • choose agile software delivery practices like domain-driven design (DDD), theory of constraints (ToC) and extreme programming (XP)
  • are curious life-long learners who enjoy keeping up to date with latest tools, techniques, languages and frameworks
  • know that naming is really important, but don’t really care about job titles

Salary transparency, salary consistency and benefits

No matter where in Sweden you’re based, we pay everyone the same initial salary of 66 721 kr, with ITP1 pension from the start. After one year, the collective bonus kicks in, and after two years your salary is increased by approximately 20% (in addition to the bonus). We’ve always done this, because we wanted a business where worrying about salary was taken off the table.

Let’s get started

We’re a team of like-minded folk who enjoy depending on each other to get things done. We’re aware that the make-up of factor10 is not representative of the IT industry in Sweden or reflective of our efforts to build a balanced team. We are going to change this in 2025. In Q1, we are prioritizing applications from women, while continuing to welcome applications from all genders, backgrounds and ethnicities.

Suzi, our people person, would love to talk if you think factor10 looks interesting. We expect you're busy, possibly don't have an updated CV and probably have questions. Don't let that get in the way. Email her (suzi@factor10.com).
