@David Eriksson don't want to hijack your thread so starting a new one. How is the situation in blekinge for programmers? Who are the big employers? Curious cause that's my origins... If I ever decided to move back 😛

Hej @gotoOla 🙂
Big employers: Telenor Försäkringskassan Ericsson
For app dev I guess Consid in Karlshamn
I don't know any app development or use of Kotlin at those companies. Some Scala at Ericsson though if you are into that.
I think the situation i pretty calm. Everone tries to play it safe and stay put during the corona crisis if they can.

Cool, thanks 😊

There are a bunch of smaller companies and authorities (Boverket, Kustbevakningen) and also Saab (Kockums)

Good to know for me as well if I one day decided to move back to Sweden. Do those hire Android engineers too? Or is it more backend/server?

@gotoOla & @enighma If you are curious in moving to Malmö, Lund, Helsingborg (i.e Skåne) I would be very happy to employ you all. I work for Sigma Technology Solutions and are always looking for good developers. Now in particular I am looking for Kotlin guys on the backend side, but KotlinAndroid is also interesting. I´d be happy to talk more with you if you are interested.
Also, in Malmö there is always a need for Scala developers
