Senior Software Developer

We're looking for a senior developer who is equal parts builder, architect and team player. You are excited about AI-native development but grounded enough to know when the hype outruns the reality. You'll join a small, sharp team where the work spans from "what should we build" to "how does it run in production," and you're expected to have opinions at every step. Our work is a mix: from genuine greenfield projects that we design from scratch to developing our existing services to match evolving needs. AI is a daily tool, not a marketing slide. We work closely with the different business areas at Barona, and the solutions we ship are tied directly to how the company finds new opportunities and runs more smoothly. "The things that actually matter about a job rarely fit in a job ad. The colleagues are the best I've had. Learning new things is part of your work week, not something you squeeze in on your own time.
