Our software and development tools help build products used in cars, hospitals, factories, homes, and industries around the world. We help engineers solve complex challenges and create technology people can depend on.

Rooted in Nordic values and trusted by innovators worldwide, we combine deep technical expertise with a culture of curiosity, craftsmanship, and collaboration. With decades of engineering experience and a shared passion for technical excellence, we're helping shape the future of software and embedded development.

About the Role

IAR is part of Qt Group, operating as an independent business focused on embedded software development. We provide software development tools that help engineers develop, debug, test, and secure embedded software for products across automotive, industrial automation, medical technology, and other industries.

We’re looking for a Software Engineer for the team that owns IAR's license management platform. It’s a cloud-based system used directly across all IAR's subscription products, alongside an on-premises option. The team works across the full stack, sharing ownership of both the cloud services and the client software installed on developers' machines, with most new development happening on the cloud side.

You'll work closely with your team in day-to-day production work, keeping services current and resolving issues as they come up. There's plenty of room to grow into deeper cloud, DevSecOps, and infrastructure work as your interests develop.

What You’ll Do

• Develop and maintain cloud-based services powering IAR's license management platform, used directly across IAR's subscription products.
• Build and maintain REST APIs and integrations connecting the platform's services.
• Keep services current and secure by scheduling and performing updates.
• Share responsibility with the rest of the team for our client-side license software, alongside the cloud platform.
• Collaborate closely with the rest of the team on architecture, priorities, and technical decisions.
• Get involved in wider platform work, including containerization, cloud infrastructure, and CI/CD.

What You Bring to the Table

• Extensive experience in scripting using Python, JavaScript, or TypeScript.
• Familiarity with strongly typed languages such as C# or Java.
• Experience building or integrating REST APIs.
• Comfortable working across both Windows and Linux environments.
• You need to understand Swedish.

Bonus Points For...

• Prior experience with C++.
• Experience with Docker or other containerization tools.
• Exposure to cloud platforms (e.g. Azure, AWS), CI/CD, or DevSecOps practices.
• Awareness of security best practices, such as dependency or vulnerability monitoring.

Rewarding Your Impact

Bring Your Whole Self

The best ideas come from people with different experiences, perspectives, and ways of thinking. We are committed to creating an environment where everyone feels respected, supported, and able to do their best work.

We welcome applicants of all backgrounds and identities and provide equal opportunities for all. Our technology may be what we're known for, but it's our people who make the difference.
