Software Developer

Stegra

Boden, Switzerland

We’re currently looking for Software Developers to join our Digital Steel Mill team. The team is responsible for developing and maintaining the digital systems that power our operations. The Digital Steel Mill is structured into three smaller, cross-functional developer teams, each responsible for a specific area within the domain.

You’ll work closely with stakeholders to identify needs and understand how digital tools can drive efficiency, automation, and smarter decision-making. Your responsibility spans the full lifecycle: from understanding operational needs, designing and developing solutions to implementation and long-term maintenance. It’s a role with real ownership where your work directly contributes to shaping and improving how we operate.

Responsibilities:

• Design, build, and operate backend services that are fast, scalable, and reliable
• Collaborate with domain experts to understand operational needs and turn them into robust digital tools
• Build and maintain cloud infrastructure and deployment pipelines (DevOps mindset)
• Take ownership of your team’s digital capabilities and continuously improve them
• Contribute across domains—backend, infrastructure, data, and architecture
• Work closely with stakeholders to ensure digital solutions support real operational value

We’re looking for experienced developers who want to take broad ownership and help shape both product and process. You’ll work in a modern, cloud-native environment using Java/Kotlin, Spring Boot, and tools like GitLab, Terraform and Snowflake—always with scalability, flexibility and long-term impact in mind.

Qualifications:

You’re curious, driven, and believe that real progress happens when we work together. You’re not afraid to challenge old ways of thinking—and you treat others with respect while doing it. At Stegra, we value people who take initiative, build trust, and help create a workplace where everyone can do their best.

Specific to this role, we would like to see that you can tick off a fair amount of the boxes below:

• An academic degree in Computer Science, Data Science, or equivalent practical experience
• Proficient in backend development, preferably using Java/Kotlin and Spring Boot
• Cloud experience (AWS, Azure, or GCP)
• Hands-on with CI/CD pipelines (GitLab, GitHub Actions, Jenkins)
• Understanding of engineering best practices such as continuous delivery and automated testing
• Ability to communicate effectively across disciplines and work closely with stakeholders
• A growth mindset and enthusiasm for learning new technologies and approaches

Here’s what makes this role unique:

• Breadth, not silos: You’ll work across multiple technical areas—backend, architecture, infrastructure, DevOps and data—gaining deep understanding of our digital ecosystem.
• Ownership from day one: You’ll support a specific domain and act as a bridge between operations and tech, and drive solutions all the way from need to implementation and iteration.
• Close to the action: You’ll collaborate closely with stakeholders, understand their workflows, and ensure your digital solutions create real value in their day-to-day operations.
