Web Developer to Team Display & Integrations for Blocket

You might (or not :)) already know that Blocket is the most visited classified ads website in Sweden. But did you know that we also have a lot of integrations with other companies that provide services to our users that are related to the items being sold on Blocket? From financing options, car owner history to pet insurance for your new puppy. We also have advertising placements, articles and inspirational pages. The platforms behind this functionality are handled by a team called Display & Integrations.

We are Blocket, Sweden’s largest and most popular marketplace with around 12,3M monthly active users generating 100 million sessions. We are proud of being one of Sweden’s first tech companies, our work to enable the second-hand trade and our contribution to a positive environmental impact. Want to get a feel for the Blocket vibe?

You are able to independently lead the development of new features, and enjoy discussing and debating code and solutions with your peers. You like sharing your knowledge with your cross functional team and also more junior developers and above all, you are curious and continuously strive to learn new things. We are often working in pairs so collaboration is another key. And the thinking and problem solving mindset. The goal is what we create as a team, not the techniques we use. It is a bonus if you also have experience with Content Management Systems or Advertisement platforms.
