About the Carrier Management organization
Carrier connectivity is the very foundation of our company and we are the team that will make this foundation as solid as possible, allowing us to grow and thrive.

About the job
Are you a tech-savvy problem solver with a passion for building bridges between different systems? We're looking for a Carrier Integration Specialist to join our team and be the driving force behind the seamless integration of our product platform with various carrier services.
As the technical liaison between us and the carrier, you will acquire extensive knowledge about their services and technical interfaces. With your deep understanding of our product platform and best practices for carrier service integration, you'll be responsible for defining work packages for the development team and ensuring they have all the answers they need.
But that's not all - you'll also play a crucial role in testing, validating, and implementing all carrier-related developments alongside the development team. You'll work closely with the Carrier Library team, which is responsible for maintaining and updating nShift's strategic carrier library and you will report directly to Patrik Nilsson, the Carrier Library Manager
The carrier market is in constant change. New carriers emerge and the current carriers evolve. You may work on keeping us up to date with currently connected carriers, with connecting new carriers or with a combination of both. In this exciting role, you'll be driven by the needs of the organization, responding to requests for changes related to current carriers, supporting the carrier library, and assisting in resolving incidents and bugs. We're looking for someone with a curious mind, a passion for problem-solving, and a desire to grow alongside our organization.
