Web Developer

Schibsted Marketplaces is a group of several hugely popular classifieds sites visited by millions of users each day—Norwegian finn.no, Swedish blocket.se, Finnish tori.fi, Danish dba.dk, and more.

Our users check in to find their next job, flat, car, sofa, or just browse and dream of their next holiday. We have a brand and a mission that makes a significant social difference. We also have a cutting-edge technical organization, and we care deeply about our craft, always helping each other improve. We foster a blameless culture that encourages people to take action. If something goes wrong, we learn from it and move forward. We believe that if we never fail, we don’t experiment enough. We test, we fail, and we learn. Most importantly, we have fun while doing it!
