This is an opportunity to join a fast-growing company to help enable the future of privacy-safe sensors.

Location: Malmö (hybrid), Sweden preferred.

Disclaimer: Unfortunately, we’re not in a position to sponsor work visas.

The role

We're hiring a full-stack engineer to take ownership of Minut's guest experience surface: the messaging flows, the guest app, and the smart integrations that turn a Minut sensor into something that delights guests.

Today, this layer handles millions of requests per hour from web, mobile, API clients, and sensors. Tomorrow it needs to carry 10x that, across more partners, with the same latency and the same reliability that lets us detect fires and noise incidents in time to prevent real damage.

You'll be on the team owning this surface end-to-end. If in twelve months a property manager with a 2000-unit portfolio onboards to Minut and has a rules engine, a partner sync, and a real-time alert pipeline that all just work, that was you.

About Minut

Minut builds hardware and software for Airbnb hosts, property managers, and hoteliers to provide better guest experiences and protect their properties, without cameras and without compromising the privacy of the people staying there. The way we do that is edge AI: the models run on the sensor, not in the cloud.

We started with Airbnb hosts. We're now expanding fast into residential property management, driven in large part by our cigarette smoke detection work (more on that here). Tens of thousands of customers, with even more properties, and the growth opportunity is massive.

What you’ll own:

  • The automations and rules engine that property managers use to turn sensor events into delightful guest experiences.
  • AI agents that build, facilitate, and help property managers deliver better guest experiences without having to be hands-on 24/7 themselves.
  • The partner integrations layer. Designing and shipping new PMS and hospitality integrations: schema, sync strategy, auth, rate limits, the whole surface. Each one opens a market segment.
  • The web app surfaces that expose all of the above. You'll write React and ship UI, not hand it off.
  • The production system end-to-end. Your code, your deploys, your dashboards, your on-call. We don't have a separate ops team to throw things over a wall to.

    • Who you are:

  • You've built and operated high-traffic systems in the cloud before, at more than one company. You know what breaks at 1M+ requests/hour because you've had to fix it on a Tuesday.
  • You're AI-native in how you work. We pay for Claude Code, Cursor, or whatever tool makes you fastest. No cap, no approval process. We expect you to be shipping meaningfully more than an engineer who isn't using these tools, and we'll talk about what that looks like in the interview.
  • You're fluent in TypeScript and Node, and you write React when a feature needs a UI. You don't wait for a frontend engineer to pick up your ticket.
  • You've designed APIs that other teams or external partners consume, and you know what makes one pleasant versus painful to integrate against.
  • You operate as a product owner, not a ticket-taker. When the spec is ambiguous, you talk to customers or read the data rather than waiting for someone to write it down.
  • Excellent written and spoken English. Swedish is not required.

    • Tech stack

  • Frontend: React
  • Backend: Node / TypeScript
  • Cloud: AWS
  • DevOps & tooling: Kubernetes, GitHub Actions, Terraform, Grafana, etc

    • The team you'll join

    20+ engineers across product, platform, mobile, firmware, and ML. People come from Google, Axis, Jayway, and a mix of startups. The team built the on-sensor ML pipeline that does cigarette smoke and noise classification without sending audio off-device, which is the hard version of the problem, and the reason our product is different from everyone else's. You'll be working next to the people who built that.

    Compensation & Benefits

    We offer solid compensation, including a meaningful KPO (kvalificerade personaloptioner) stock option package. We want early engineers to have real upside when the company does well.

  • Hybrid from our central Malmö office, but we support fully remote work for the right candidates.
  • Off-sites and hackathons a few times a year in places worth flying to.
  • Occupational pension (tjänstepension) and wellness grant (friskvårdsbidrag).
  • Full budget for the AI coding tools of your choice.

    • A fair chance

    Minut is open to applications from all sections of society. We care whether you can do the work, not about anything else that makes you you.

    We're currently not able to sponsor work visas, so you'll need an existing right to work in Sweden.
