👩‍💻Job board for Flutter™, Google’s UI toolkit for building beautiful apps for mobile, web & desktop

S Group and SOK are quite known for our retail, hospitality and service station business, but have ever thought about what it takes to run all these field operations from the IT point of view? Behind beyond-expectations customer experiences and home-door delivered groceries, for example, there are fingerprints of several IT professionals and developers all over the service and solution.

On the mobile development, we develop several applications such as S-kaupat for grocery shopping online, S-mobiili for banking services, ABC-mobiili for fueling and Sokos Hotels application for accommodation services.

About the Role

As our team’s next enforcement you would first get to work with developing the mobile application for ordering groceries from our grocery stores (as you can imagine, there is work to be done after grocery eCommerce made its breakthrough about a year ago in Finland). But it is not the only solution, and we also want to hear your wishes. What is common for all these applications is the stack: we use React Native, TypeScript and GraphQL. We also appreciate experience from native or Flutter development.

Your daily work will consist of coding, documentation, sharing your knowledge and expertise with other team members on technological aspects but also on best practices. Your closest colleagues are professionals from the fields of development, design and QA.

What we Hope from You

• 
  

  Previous experience and know-how from the world of mobile development and React Native especially

  
  


• 
  

  Vision on technical design

  
  


• 
  

  Ability and confidence to make independent decisions and share insight on technical matters

  
  


• 
  

  Problem-solving attitude

  
  


• 
  

  In work-related matters you communicate fluently in English

  
  

Why SOK?

Why to choose SOK as a Senior Mobile Developer? For many of us the dialogue between the IRL and the digital world makes our work extremely intriguing. Our work is also grounded on the daily lives of millions of people running their daily errands in Finland, which makes our work very rewarding; we make people’s daily lives easier by offering them convenience.

As a big company we have plenty of development areas in different business domains, which certainly will stimulate your professional development and growth. You are creating the services directly to the end-users, and you have the ownership of the project; it means you are developing applications, which millions of users will have to live with, and so do you. But luckily you also have the control over your own work, so you get to influence on ways of working and technological choices. We also value good work-life balance, so the workload is reasonable.
