The workforce is undergoing a massive transformation, with up to 50% of today’s jobs expected to require new skill sets within a few years. This shift makes evaluating talent challenging, and closing this skill gap is rapidly becoming the most critical issue for companies worldwide.
At Alva, we believe you are more than just your CV. Traditional evaluations can't capture your full potential, especially in a world where roles evolve quickly. We're dedicated to building an inclusive product that gives everyone an equal opportunity to showcase their abilities and match efficiently with relevant job opportunities. By doing so, we empower companies to thrive and improve their performance through better talent alignment.
We are currently seeking 2-4 Senior Fullstack Engineers to help us revolutionize how the world views talent, today and tomorrow.
The company
Alva Labs is a Stockholm-based SaaS company that offers a solution that is helping global organizations grow their team in a scientific way. Alva has created a unique candidate assessment platform that helps companies find the right candidate for them, and candidates to find their dream job. Combining state-of-the-art psychometrics, data science, and an obsession with candidate experience, it provides the needed tool for data-driven talent acquisition.
Our current focus is on transforming our offerings to meet the needs of larger and more complex organizations. By targeting this segment, we aim to redefine how the market perceives talent management. We are embarking on ambitious product innovations and evolving our go-to-market strategies. In this dynamic environment, the engineering team will play a pivotal role in shaping the future success of our company.

The role
The day-to-day work in Alva’s engineering team is performed in product squads focused on different product surfaces. Currently, we’re divided into four different squads, each squad aims to be self-sufficient and consists of a Product Manager, Designer, and three to five engineers. Currently, we're hiring for our Product squads that build the core offering of Alva's platform.


Within 1 month you have:
Received the support you need in order to get a good start at Alva.


Started to familiarize yourself with the product and the platform.


Started contributing to the team’s work.

Within 3 months you have:
Been programming in all parts of the tech stack. All the way from frontend to backend and cloud infrastructure.


Helped your team to build new features quicker than we otherwise would have - the velocity has increased significantly.

Within 6 months you have:
Impacted the quality of the product, getting to the point where we fix all bugs and improve performance metrics.


Become a technical role model and informal leader within your team.


Started to feel proud of the part of the product and the codebase you are working with.

You
We do not expect you to have prior extensive experience building recruitment solutions but we're rather interested in you being a skilled Fullstack Software Engineer and a colleague we could always rely on. Ideally, you have extensive experience working as a fullstack engineer and are used to leading technical discovery of complex problems.
We would also be happy if you;
Love solving complex problems and turning them into solutions that breathe simplicity.


Are ambitious and structured.


Are a prestigeless team player and enjoy supporting your coworkers.


Our day-to-day language is English, so no need to know Swedish.


Are able to spend at least 3 days/week at our office in central Stockholm.


Your future colleagues
We are a team of 60+ people, representing a wide selection of professional backgrounds. And all of that is absolutely fantastic, but the true beauty is the trust and warmth you will experience. You will most likely never be in a place where people are as nerdy about what we do, and have so many brilliant minds to learn from and ask for guidance. To quote our CEO during our last company trip, “It feels like hanging out with a bunch of old friends”.

What we offer
We strongly believe that experimentation is the best way of learning and making decisions about product and technology. Therefore, we try our best to keep the feedback loops short to iteratively improve our product and our system. For this to be possible, we need a modern system that is pleasant to work with. The core of our tech stack is;
Python


React, TypeScript


Google Cloud Platform (GKE, Cloud Run, Pub/Sub)


Postgre, Firestore


GraphQL


Protocol buffers


Event-driven microservices

The problem we are solving is not just engaging and interesting (the combination of psychological science and statistics, with a large chunk of candidate experience obsession, what’s not to love?), but it is also something that has a tremendous impact on both people and businesses. You will have the opportunity to work with something that truly makes a difference.
What else? We have flexible work hours in a hybrid setup, where you spend at least 3 days/week in the office. You will get six weeks of vacation, a flexible compensation and benefits package where you can make individual adaptations, a generous preventive care benefit, and a few other neat perks. You can read all about our benefits ? here ? and our company values ? here ?.

The hiring process
Given that we claim to be experts in hiring, you probably wonder what we have in store for you.

Objective screening with Alva’s own tests (and your first interaction with the product we build!)


First interview with HR (focusing on who you are)


A coding challenge to complete at home (and your second interaction with our product) as preparation for the next round.


Live-coding session with your potential new colleagues.


System design interview with an Engineering manager


Final interview with CTO and deputy CEO


Background- and ID check (yes, we take security seriously)


Done deal!



Come help us change the world of hiring! Welcome to Alva! Visa mindre

The day-to-day work in Alva’s engineering team is performed in product squads focused on different product surfaces. Currently, we’re divided into four different squads, each team aims to be self-sufficient and consists of a Product Manager, Designer, and three to five engineers.
Within 1 month you have:
Received the support you need in order to get a good start at Alva.
Started to familiarize yourself with the product and the platform.
Started contributing to the team’s work.

Within 3 months you have:
Been programming in all parts of the tech stack. All the way from frontend to backend and cloud infrastructure.
Helped your team to build new features quicker than we otherwise would have - the velocity has increased significantly.

Within 6 months you have:
Become comfortable programming in all parts of the tech stack.
Impacted the quality of the product, getting to the point where we fix all bugs and improve performance metrics.
Started to feel proud of the part of the product and the codebase you are working with.

You
Your specific background isn’t super important to us, as we are more interested in who you are as a person and that you are a skilled mid-level engineer. Ideally, you have a couple of years of experience working as a full-stack engineer and are used to leading technical discovery of complex problems. We don’t care too much about which programming languages or technologies you’ve been using in the past, but experience with the following would definitely be a benefit.
The core of our tech stack is;
Python
React, JavaScript/TypeScript
Google Cloud Platform
Pub/Sub
Postgre, Firestore
Kubernetes, Cloud Run
GraphQL
Protocol buffers
Event-driven microservices

Interested in more details? Continue to read ? here ?.
We would also be happy if you;
Love solving complex problems and turning them into solutions that breathe simplicity.
Are ambitious and structured.
Are a prestigeless team player and enjoy supporting your coworkers.
Our day-to-day language is English, so no need to speak Swedish.
Live in or are open to relocating to Stockholm

Your future colleagues
We are a team of 60+ people, representing a wide selection of professional backgrounds. And all of that is absolutely fantastic, but the true beauty is the trust and warmth you will experience. You will most likely never be in a place where people are as nerdy about what we do, and have so many brilliant minds to learn from and ask for guidance. To quote our CEO during our last company trip, “It feels like hanging out with a bunch of old friends”.
What we offer
We strongly believe that experimentation is the best way of learning and making decisions about product and technology. Therefore, we try our best to keep the feedback loops short to iteratively improve our product and our system.
The problem we are solving is not just engaging and interesting (the combination of psychological science and statistics, with a large chunk of candidate experience obsession, what’s not to love?), but it is also something that has a tremendous impact on both people and businesses. You will have the opportunity to work with something that truly makes a difference.
What else? We have flexible work hours where we spend at least 3 days a week at the office. You will get seven weeks of vacation, an on-market salary, a generous preventive care benefit, and a few other neat perks. You can read all about our benefits ? here ? and our company values ? here ?.
The hiring process
Given that we claim to be experts in hiring, you probably wonder what we have in store for you.
Objective screening with Alva’s own tests (and your first interaction with the product we build!)
First interview with HR after summer (focusing on who you are)

Senior Product Designer to Alva Labs
Would you hire everyone you went to school with? No? Didn’t think so. Just because you have gone through a certain education it doesn’t mean you are all equally skilled.
But then why are organizations consistently evaluating talent based on educational background? Especially when estimations indicate that 50% of all jobs will require new skill sets in the coming three years. Well, because they got it all wrong.
At Alva, we build a product that helps organizations find the right people, not the right CVs. Do you want to come and create a step change in the UX of our existing and new features as a product designer?


The company
Alva Labs is a Stockholm-based SaaS company that offers a solution that is helping global organizations grow their team in a scientific way. Alva has created a unique candidate assessment platform that helps companies find the right candidate for them, and candidates to find their dream job. Combining state-of-the-art psychometrics, data science, and an obsession with candidate experience, it provides the needed tool for data-driven talent acquisition.
Our current focus is on transforming our offerings to meet the needs of larger and more complex organizations. By targeting this segment, we aim to redefine how the market perceives talent. We are embarking on ambitious product innovations and evolving our go-to-market strategies. In this dynamic environment, you as a product designer will play a pivotal role in shaping the future success of our company.


The role
Design needs to be the heart and soul of our successful product work. We believe that designers should possess the ability to identify the right problems, evaluate and propose effective solutions, and articulate ways to build the right thing.
This role will report to our Design Manager. You will be part of a small design team, but work very closely to the Product and Engineering teams. We are organized in squads, so your closest colleagues will likely be a Product Manager and an Engineering Manager.
In your day-to-day work, you will:
Work in a highly collaborative fashion with Product Managers, Engineers, Data Scientists, Sales reps, and Customer Success Managers to solve big and hairy product problems.
Be self-sufficient by taking full ownership of your work. You will be responsible for every detail, every step of the way, from whiteboard sketching to high-fidelity build specifications.
Rapidly produce multiple concepts and workflows, understanding when deeper exploration is warranted and when it is best to change paths and try another approach.
Plan, conduct, and analyze user research with recruiters, customers, and candidates. Take into account existing insights, technical constraints, business needs, and specific platform demands to produce data-informed solutions.
Carefully balance user experience with business needs.
Bring your experience and expertise in order to, together with your manager and other designers, help shape a collaborative and more mature design team at Alva.

You
We are seeking a Senior Product Designer that has a solid track record of working with design systems and launching products. Exactly where you have built your experience is less relevant, ideally some from a SaaS-product, but we value your expertise regardless of whether it lies in B2C, B2B, or agency contexts. The important aspect for us is that you have a history of seeing your designs being shipped to production and having iterated on them based on user feedback.
To be a successful candidate, you:
Have significant work experience as a Product Designer or UI/UX Designer.
You have a strong portfolio demonstrating what you have worked with and accomplished. Make sure that you share the portfolio in your application!
Possess core design skill sets, including visual design, prototyping, interaction design, and information architecture.
Are very comfortable with planning, conducting, and analyzing user research.
Excel in explaining your work, process, and findings to cross-functional stakeholders, actively seeking feedback to produce your best work.
Take ownership over design projects from start to finish, independently involving and leading contributors such as product managers, engineers, and people scientists to a successful outcome.
Fluency in English is a must, Swedish proficiency is not required.

What we offer
At Alva, you will get to work with truly talented people on our mission to create a more fair and efficient job market. The problem we are solving is not only interesting and engaging, but it is also an area that deserves and needs attention. We have the opportunity to impact millions of candidates' lives, by helping organizations and candidates to find the right match.
As a company we have high ambitions and are eager to create value for our customers and candidates. To achieve our goals, we hold each other to high standards. In order to enjoy and thrive here we believe it is important that your values align with ours. Please take the time to read more about those ? here ?.
We offer an individual compensation & benefits package, where you can adjust the set up based on your personal preferences, where the starting point is an above average base salary, 30 days of vacation,on-market pension, and a few other neat perks.
We offer a flexible working set up where we spend at least 3 days at our office in central Stockholm per week.
Buckle up - it’s going to be quite a ride! ????

Given that we claim to be experts in hiring, you probably wonder what we have in store for you.

About Alva Labs
If one should summarise what we as a company are doing, it could be something like this:
Alva Labs is a Stockholm-based SaaS company offering a solution that helps global companies grow their teams in a scientific way. Alva has created a unique candidate assessment platform that helps companies build their organisations with the right people in the right place. Combining state-of-the-art assessment methods, data science, and an obsession with candidate experience, it provides the needed tool for data-driven talent acquisition.
Why is this role important to us
We are on a mission to create a fair and efficient job market for everyone. We’re proud to be working with some of northern Europe's strongest brands and a platform that has a strong product-market-fit and happy customers. We have found our ICP in the Enterprise segment and proven that we can grow - now it’s time to start scaling even further. As our Growth Marketing Manager, you will be responsible for ensuring that we act on data, optimising our sales funnel, and building strong relationships and processes in the GTM team. You will work across the whole customer journey: From building and capturing demand, supporting the sales team with sales acceleration to close the deal, and finally finding ambassadors and supporting expansion opportunities. This role is key in growing our revenue, and crucial in helping us expand in current and new markets. You will be measured on Pipeline velocity, New booked ARR and NRR. Marketing and sales share KPIs and we put great pride in having built a strong marketing and sales alignment. You’ll be a key player to take our processes and feedback loop to the next level.
What will you do
Your main responsibility is to drive new revenue and grow the company retaining and expanding our existing customers. Easy peasy, right? That also means you have to go where the data & opportunities take you, but here’s a short list of what we think you will be focusing on:
Take control of the buyer journey - making sure data is collected and structured, finding insights and taking action on them
Own campaigns, ABM structure & lead nurturing flows in Hubspot
Collaborate with our SDR team on ABM strategy and tactics
Distribute our content and find out what works and doesn’t work
Make sure our website is optimized for technical SEO
Lead web development and updates in the CMS (we’re using Hubspot)
Support the work of our agencies/freelancers in Paid social and SEM
Work closely with the Sales team to understand their needs & challenges to find improvements in the buyer journey
Work closely with the Customer Success team to understand the user journey & customer pain points to find improvements in the customer journey
Visualise data and share insights with the entire GTM team.

Who are you
A data & statistics lover. You understand numbers, how to slice data and what you want from a dashboard. And you know how to present it so that non-marketers understand it. Bonus if you know .
A techy marketer. From choosing what tools you need (be it Hotjar, Google Optimize or GA4) to understanding how to implement it.
You’re the jack of all trades. You will have resources to work with, freelancers & agencies, but you should also be comfortable rolling up your sleeves.
A goal-striving individual and a prestigeless team player. We have really ambitious goals here at Alva, and the only way to reach them is to work together as a team.
Comfortable having a lot of interactions with other teams and stakeholders. As you will run a lot of cross-functional projects, managing expectations and partnering up with colleagues in other teams will be a key to succeed in this role.
We expect you to be fully comfortable communicating in English, as it’s the official language at Alva. Swedish is not a requirement.

What have you done before
We have really high standards, and are searching for that person that will dazzle us. What makes you great however, isn’t necessarily a long experience. You most likely have a background from digital marketing, ideally from B2B SaaS. You know your ABM, campaign management, performance marketing, web analysis, and SEO. Hubspot is your best friend and you’re the one showing up to the discussion packed with data driven insights. Basically you have most likely been hanging out in contexts with a lot of data. However we truly believe that great people will find a way, regardless of previous experience. So if you’re interested and curious about the role - hit that apply button.
About the team

As the department matures, we are building out meaningful and exciting processes that help us and our customers to work better. You will spend a chunk of your time collaborating with your Alva teammates to drive this change.

If you join our team you will;

- Cultivate and develop relationships with our customers' decision-makers and key stakeholders - ensuring Alva is seen as a strategic recruitment partner rather than just a software vendor.

- Comfortably interact with stakeholders at all levels - profoundly understanding your customers’ objectives, challenges, and expectations.

- Drive adoption and usage of Alva to unlock upsell opportunities

- Have a diverse portfolio of customers traversing sectors, sizes and markets.

What to expect from your first months?
Research shows (did we mention we love science?) that it’s crucial to get a good start when changing jobs. During your first months with us, your main focuses will be;

- Receiving a full overview of how the product works and how we approach CS at Alva so you can have success in your role.

- Shadowing your colleagues' meetings and picking up customers of your own.

- Upskilling yourself while contributing to key projects both in CS and across our commercial teams.

- Getting to know the team - there'll be no shortage of social occasions!

You
We obviously believe in finding the right person, rather than the right CV. That said, some things would make us really happy;



- If you already have a background in Customer Success, where you have worked with stakeholder management within different seniority levels.

- If you have any experience with account management.

- Thrive in an ambitious environment. We have high expectations for our work and try to push ourselves to really make an impact on our customers.

- We are proud to represent eighteen (and counting!) nationalities at Alva and - given our ambitious expansion plans - written and verbal fluency in English is a must. For this position, Swedish is also a requirement.

Your future colleagues
We are a team of 60+ people, representing a wide selection of professional backgrounds. The common denominator is the excitement for our mission, the create a fair and efficient job market. There is a lot of engagement and eagerness to build something spectacular together with other highly talented individuals.

What about the Customer Success team, you might wonder? Well, let me tell you there was never a more lovely bunch of people to call your colleagues. With deep knowledge and experience, a large cup of service-mindedness, and a pinch of laughter, they are the perfect recipe for both NRR growth and customer satisfaction.

Why join Alva?
The problem we are solving is not just engaging and interesting (the combination of psychological science and statistics, with a large chunk of candidate experience obsession, what’s not to love?), but it is also something that has a tremendous impact on both people and businesses. You will have the opportunity to work with something that truly makes a difference.

What else? We have flexible work hours in a hybrid setup, where you can decide for yourself what works best for you. You will get seven weeks of vacation, an on-market salary, a generous preventive care benefit, and a few other neat perks. You can read all about our benefits ? here (https://alvalabs.notion.site/Benefits-935c687705b54c81a795aa43f96c8a36) ? and our company values ? here (https://alvalabs.notion.site/Values-70d5e7e96c5a4161bcd7acceef393750) ?.

The hiring process
Given that we claim to be experts in hiring, you probably wonder what we have in store for you.

- Objective screening with Alva’s tests

- First interview (focusing on who you are)

- Second interview with hiring manager (focusing on what you know)

Content Creator to Alva Labs’ marketing team
Did you know that the average recruiter spends around 7 seconds screening a CV? ???? That is equivalent to the time it takes to get a first impression of someone at a party. In both scenarios the human brain simplifies things, making us focus on certain aspects. The only difference in first impressions through CVs and during a party, is that the CV screening impacts people’s lives. It leads to some people being shut out from the job market, and others being hunted down by everyone, regardless of understanding if that particular person is actually suitable for the job or not.

Armed with research, machine learning and a revolutionising SaaS tool, Alva Labs is disrupting the hiring scene. We are now looking to add a Content Creator to the team, to help make hiring better for everyone!

About Alva Labs

Alva Labs is a Stockholm-based SaaS company that offers a platform that is helping global companies grow their team in a scientific, and fair, way. We believe that companies need to look beyond the traditional CV and more based on personal traits and potential. Alva has created a unique candidate assessment platform that helps companies build their organisations with the right people in the right place. Combining state-of-the-art psychometrics, data science, and an obsession with candidate experience, it provides the needed tool for data-driven talent acquisition. Some of the Nordic's most well known and loved brands are working with Alva today, including SEB, Lyko, Telia, DNB, Schibsted, Deloitte, Happy Socks, Northvolt and more.

We are a team of 60+ people, representing a wide selection of professional backgrounds. The common denominator is the excitement for our mission, to create a fair and efficient job market. There is a lot of engagement and eagerness to build something spectacular together with other highly talented individuals.

What You'll Do:
The role of Alva’s content creator is the beating heart of Alva’s brand. You will be the one creating the copy and visuals to engage our audience. We have a team with extensive knowledge about the audience and their pain points but we need your expertise on how to craft creative campaigns and collateral to get the message out to the world.

As a Content Creator at Alva Labs, you'll be at the forefront of our journey, shaping the narrative and engaging our audience across various platforms.

Your responsibilities will include:

Creating and packaging compelling stories for an international audience cross multiple channels, mediums and customer journey stages.

Overseeing content marketing efforts from idea to publication aligned with the marketing plan.

Collaborating with other teams to leverage quality content throughout the sales funnel.

Coaching internal content producers and occasionally acting as a ghostwriter.

Ensuring sufficient production resources, either through internal or external means.

Be part of developing Alva’s tone of voice and visual guidelines.

In summary, your role is to craft stories that inspire, engage, educate, and convert our target audience.

We think that you:

We think that you love to create, communicate, interact, and drive engagement through storytelling. Whether it's content for inspiring video, engaging images, or creative texts, you create magic at the intersection of the written and the visual.

You are a proficient storyteller and exceptional writer.

Ideally, you are fluent in both English and Swedish.

Aesthetically inclined with basic layout and design skills

Leaning into AI and learning new technologies

You are familiar with tracking KPIs to measure content effectiveness and prove ROI.

A creative mastermind with meticulous planning skills.

You thrive in a fast-paced and dynamic environment. Guidelines and processes are not always in place. Which means you’ll be part of creating them!
We are looking for someone who is naturally curious and eager to be part of an innovation journey that will transform our industry.

Why join Alva?

The problem we are solving is not just engaging and interesting (the combination of psychological science and statistics, with a large chunk of candidate experience obsession, what’s not to love?), but it is also something that has a tremendous impact on both people and businesses. You will have the opportunity to work with something that truly makes a difference. What else?

Senior Product Designer to Alva Labs
The workforce is currently undergoing a massive transformation. Up to 50% of today’s jobs are predicted to change in terms of the skill sets required in just a few years. This makes it very difficult to understand how to evaluate talent, and closing this skill gap is rapidly becoming the most important problem for companies across the world to solve.

Because let's face it, you are more than your CV, and there is no way any company can accurately predict how you will perform in your role based on that. Especially not when the role you have will change so much, so quickly.

At Alva, we are committed to building an inclusive product that provides everyone with an equal opportunity to showcase their capabilities and where candidates can efficiently be matched with relevant job opportunities. We are currently seeking a collaborative Senior Product Designer to join our team and to help us change how the world views talent, today and tomorrow.

The company
Alva Labs is a Stockholm-based SaaS company that offers a solution that is helping global companies grow their team in a scientific way. Alva has created a unique candidate assessment platform that helps companies build their organizations with the right people in the right place. Combining state-of-the-art psychometrics, data science, and an obsession with candidate experience, it provides the needed tool for data-driven talent acquisition.

Our main focus as of now is adapting our offering to larger and more complex organizations. We believe that by serving this segment we maximize our impact on how the market views talent. We are therefore working on large product bets as well as adapting our go-to-market strategies.

The role
This role will report to our Design Lead. You will be part of a small design team, but work very closely to the Product and Engineering teams. We are organized in squads, so your closest colleagues will likely be a Product Manager and an Engineering Manager.

We have just transitioned Design into its own department. This is to ensure design is a driving force in how we build our product. We strongly believe design needs to be the heart and soul of successful product work. We believe that designers should possess the ability to identify the right problems, evaluate and propose effective solutions, and articulate ways to build the right thing.

In your day-to-day work, you will:

Work in a highly collaborative fashion with Product Managers, Engineers, Data Scientists, Sales reps, and Customer Success Managers to define both long-term strategy and short-term tactics.

Be self-sufficient by taking full ownership of your work. You will be responsible for every detail, every step of the way, from whiteboard sketching to high-fidelity build specifications.

Rapidly produce multiple concepts and workflows, understanding when deeper exploration is warranted and when it is best to change paths and try another approach.

Plan, conduct, and analyze user research with recruiters, customers, and candidates. Take into account existing insights, technical constraints, business needs, and specific platform demands to produce data-informed solutions.

Contribute to product growth through experimentation and optimization of existing user journeys.

Participate in design reviews and share your work regularly with the design and leadership teams to constantly improve the product and ensure consistent, great UX across all product surfaces.

Collaborate with the other designers and adjacent teams to continuously improve our Ways of working in Design.

You
We are seeking a Senior Product Designer that has a solid track record of working with design systems and launching products. Exactly where you have built your experience is less relevant, ideally some from a SaaS-product, but we value your expertise regardless of whether it lies in B2C, B2B, or agency contexts. The important aspect for us is that you have a history of seeing your designs being shipped to production and having iterated on them based on user feedback.

To be a successful candidate, you:

Have significant work experience as a Product Designer, UI/UX Designer, and/or Visual Designer.

Possess core design skill sets, including visual design, prototyping, interaction design, and information architecture.

Are very comfortable with planning, conducting, and analyzing user research.

Excel in explaining your work, process, and findings to cross-functional stakeholders, actively seeking feedback to produce your best work.

Take ownership over design projects from start to finish, independently involving and leading contributors such as product managers, engineers, and people scientists to a successful outcome.

Fluency in English is a must, Swedish proficiency is not required.

Your future colleagues
We are a team of 60+ people, representing a wide selection of professional backgrounds. The common denominator is the excitement for our mission, to create a fair and efficient job market. We have high ambitions and are eager to create true impact and value for our customers and candidates. There is for sure a lot of engagement and eagerness to build something spectacular together with other highly talented individuals.

What we offer
The problem we are solving is not just engaging and interesting (the combination of psychological science and statistics, with a large chunk of candidate experience obsession, what’s not to love?), but it is also something that has a tremendous impact on both people and businesses. You will have the opportunity to work with something that truly makes a difference.

What else? We have flexible work hours in a hybrid setup, where we spend 3 days at the office and 2 days hybrid (on-site or remote, based on individual preferences). You will get seven weeks of vacation, an on-market salary, a generous preventive care benefit, and a few other neat perks.

If it was for a leadership role, you are less likely to get it if you are a woman, or if you are short (yes, you read that correctly, short!).
But it doesn’t have to be like this. There are alternatives to hire based on the stuff that really matters, based on who the person behind the CV is. Alva is one of those alternatives. We are now looking for a Senior Machine Learning Engineer that can help us drive growth, and help our customers to start implementing the future of hiring, today! ????
The company
Alva Labs offers a SaaS solution that is helping global companies hire in a scientific way. Our unique candidate assessment platform helps companies build their organizations with the right people in the right place. By combining state-of-the-art psychometrics, data science, and an obsession with candidate experience, we provide an industry-leading tool for data-driven talent acquisition.
The role
Our psychometric assessments are truly the core of the Alva product. Test development at Alva is built on top of strong scientific findings in the area of personnel assessment and selection. We rely on a data science toolbox in Python (NumPy, Pandas, Scipy, Matplotlib) and GCP (BigQuery, Vertex AI) to manipulate, analyze and visualize data. Our models are implemented in the probabilistic programming language NumPyro and we use cutting-edge sampling techniques to estimate item parameters.
As we grow, we need to scale up our testing capabilities. Among other things, this means refining, packaging, and scaling up our internal psychometric software.
The main areas of responsibility will include:
Being part of building the core of our product to help our companies make better hiring decisions.
Develop robust and scalable data processing and modeling projects.
Automate parts of the test development process.
Develop and improve algorithms for estimation of psychological traits and abilities.
Collaborate with software engineers, data analysts, people scientists, sales representatives and customer success managers.
Explore the capabilities of Large Language Models in the domain of talent acquisition.

You
To be a fit for this role, you have studied mathematics and quantitative methods in any field with a substantial degree of complexity and statistical uncertainty (e.g. engineering, economics, political science, physics, biology). You have worked with real data, ideally in large volumes, and appreciate the importance of automation, testing, and reproducibility for data processing.
Other things that make you a qualified candidate are:
Solid knowledge in Python and .
Curiosity and learning agility.
Reliability - you complete what you take on with high standards for quality.
Self-motivation and enthusiasm - you know how to get things done, on your own or together with others.
Strong communicator - able to explain complex statistical concepts in a digestible way.
Language
The working language at Alva is English.
Swedish is not a requirement for this position

Bonus requirements that will make you stand out:
Experience in building software powered by Large Language Models is highly meriting.
Experience in Bayesian modeling using Stan, PyMC, NumPyro, Turing, BlackJAX, or any other probabilistic programming language is highly meriting.
Knowledge in modern test theory (Item Response Theory / Latent Trait Theory) is meriting.

Your future colleagues
We are in total a team of 70ish people, representing 18 different nationalities and a wide selection of professional backgrounds. We are based in central Stockholm - but apply a hybrid remote work setup - with a collective and extensive experience in building and growing tech companies, psychology, psychometrics, data science, engineering, and product design.
Why join Alva?
The problem we are solving has a tremendous impact on both people and businesses. You will have the opportunity to work with something that truly makes a difference. We are now entering an exciting phase of our company journey, and this role will be central to where we go next!

Hiring practices need to change if organizations are going to stand a fighting chance in adapting to the future. With so many jobs predicted to drastically change in the coming years, it is crucial to find a more efficient and accurate way to find the right talent. The legacy of CV screening is not only treating candidates unfairly, it also puts organizations at risk of not identifying who will grow and adapt to the changes that lie ahead.

Do you want to be part of the solution? Our dream team in engineering is growing and we want more talented people onboard, to take part in building a product that reaches thousands of users - candidates and recruiters - daily, and impacts life-changing decisions.



The company
If one should summarize what we do as a company, it could be something like this:

Alva Labs is a Stockholm-based SaaS company that offers a solution that is helping global companies grow their team in a scientific way. Alva has created a unique candidate assessment platform that helps companies build their organizations with the right people in the right place. Combining state-of-the-art psychometrics, data science, and an obsession with candidate experience, it provides the needed tool for data-driven talent acquisition. Alva has been growing 2-3x per year (in terms of people, revenue, users, and customers) and is in the exciting phase of launching our product in new market segments.

Our main focus as of now is to make the next big product bet that will revolutionize how the world views talent. By broadening our product scope we believe that we will have an even stickier offering for our customers and will be able to add value to even more hiring managers, recruiting for a larger range of roles.



The role
The day-to-day work in Alva’s engineering team is performed in product squads focused on different product surfaces. Currently, we’re divided into four different squads, each team aims to be self-sufficient and consists of a Product Manager, a Designer, and three to five engineers. Currently, we are hiring for the squads that are with the Quality of hire and Recruitment journey product areas.

Within 1 month you have:

Received the support you need in order to get a good start at Alva.

Started contributing to the squad’s work.

Within 3 months you have:

Impacted the quality of the product, getting to the point where we fix all bugs and improve performance metrics.

Be a technical role model and informal leader in frontend development in your squad and at Alva.

You

Your specific background isn’t super important to us, as we are more interested in who you are as a person and that you are a skilled engineer. Ideally, you have several years of experience working as a front-end engineer and are used to leading technical discovery of complex problems. Although you specialize in front-end engineering, we expect you to be able to work in the backend when there’s a need to. We don’t care too much about which programming languages or technologies you’ve been using in the past, as long as you are a seasoned engineer and thrive in learning new technologies (you can see which ones we're using in the section below).

We would also be happy if you;

Love solving complex problems and turning them into solutions that breathe simplicity.

Are ambitious and structured.

Are a prestigeless team player and enjoy supporting your coworkers.

Our day-to-day language is English, so no need to speak Swedish.

Hiring practices need to change if organizations are going to stand a fighting chance in adapting to the future. With so many jobs predicted to drastically change in the coming years, it is crucial to find a more efficient and accurate way to find the right talent. The legacy of CV screening is not only treating candidates unfairly, it also puts organizations at risk of not identifying who will grow and adapt to the changes that lie ahead.

Do you want to be part of the solution? Our dream team in engineering is growing and we want more talented people onboard, to take part in building a product that reaches thousands of users - candidates and recruiters - daily, and impacts life-changing decisions.



The company
If one should summarize what we do as a company, it could be something like this:

Alva Labs is a Stockholm-based SaaS company that offers a solution that is helping global companies grow their team in a scientific way. Alva has created a unique candidate assessment platform that helps companies build their organizations with the right people in the right place. Combining state-of-the-art psychometrics, data science, and an obsession with candidate experience, it provides the needed tool for data-driven talent acquisition.

Our main focus as of now is to make the next big product bet that will revolutionize how the world views talent. By broadening our product scope we believe that we will have an even stickier offering for our customers and will be able to add value to even more hiring managers, recruiting for a larger range of roles.



The role

Currently, we’re divided into four different squads, each team aims to be self-sufficient and consists of a Product Manager, a Designer, and three to five engineers.

You
Your specific background isn’t super important to us, as we are more interested in who you are as a person and that you are a skilled engineer. Ideally, you have several years of experience working as a full-stack engineer and are used to leading technical discovery of complex problems. You enjoy working in the entire stack, all the way from front-end to back-end and infrastructure. We don’t care too much about which programming languages or technologies you’ve been using in the past, as long as you are a seasoned engineer and thrive in learning new technologies (you can see which ones we're using in the section below).

We would also be happy if you;

Customer & Candidate Support Manager

Customer Support sits at the centre of all that’s important to Alva both today - to deliver industry leading service to candidates and customers - and tomorrow.

We’re trying to push the paradigm of what Customer Support means, with the sole goal of providing the best possible experience to all Alva stakeholders. We believe that Support is more than a transactional “customer/candidate asks question”, “customer/candidate gets answer”. For us, every single customer interaction is an opportunity to surprise, delight, educate and go above and beyond reasonable expectation.

The company
Alva Labs offers a SaaS solution that is helping global companies grow their team in a scientific way. Alva has created a unique candidate assessment platform that helps companies build their organisations with the right people in the right place. By combining state-of-the-art psychometrics, data science, and an obsession with candidate experience, it provides the needed tool for data-driven talent acquisition.

We are growing 2-3X per year and are in the exciting phase to launch Alva in new markets. Currently, we are focussing on international expansion into new markets and making the next big product bet that will revolutionize how the world views talent.

The role
Support tasks will consist of, but not be limited to:

- Handling inbound conversations with candidates and customers via chat and email.

- Being able to troubleshoot technical issues and showing clear problem solving skills. You’re comfortable analysing and reporting bugs through rigorous testing.

- Flexibility. The Support team is Alva’s smallest function but the team spirit is strongly rooted. We’re always on hand to help each other even if that means taking on tasks that are completely new.

- We expect you to take a genuine interest in how we can improve our product for key stakeholders.





You
We believe in finding the right person, rather than the right CV. That said, if you already have a background in Psychology, Customer Support or Customer Success - that’s always an upside. There’s no shortage of in-house thought leadership around psychometrics and tests so a background in these areas is not a prerequisite but we’ll expect you to upskill and build confidence communicating the science behind Alva as a matter of priority.

We use a few different systems in our day to day work and we haven't quite found our favourites yet. This requires you to be comfortable working in several different systems simultaneously but also learning to use new ones. It’s important that you get energy from working with people and have great soft skills - flexibility and patience go a long way…

We’re proud to represent seventeen (and counting!) nationalities at Alva and - given our ambitious expansion plans - written and verbal fluency in English and Swedish is a must.

Your future colleagues
We are a team of 60+ people, representing 17 different nationalities and a wide selection of professional backgrounds. And all of that is absolutely fantastic, but the true beauty is the trust and warmth you will experience. You will most likely never feel so supported and have so many brilliant brains to learn from and ask for guidance. To quote our CEO during our last company trip: “It feels like hanging out with a bunch of old friends”.

Why join Alva?
The problem we are solving is not just engaging and interesting (the combination of Psychological Science and statistics with a large chunk of candidate experience obsession - what’s not to love…?), but it is also something that has a tremendous impact on both people and businesses. You will have the opportunity to work with something that truly makes a difference.

With 250+ customers, strong growth, happy users, and 160,000+ assessed candidates, there is a lot of greatness to build on, and we are just getting started! There will be so many more opportunities to come.

What’s more - we have flexible work hours, where you can decide for yourself what works best for you. You will get seven weeks of vacation, a generous preventive care benefit, and a few other neat perks. You can read all about our benefits here (https://www.notion.so/alvalabs/Benefits-1abeeb8de8004f6ab915f2fced70f057) and our company values here (https://www.notion.so/Alva-Values-630a69c6c72642f2b1caab5dab55b953).

Senior Product Designer to Alva Labs

Job hunting can be rough, especially if you have a gap in your CV, if you have a foreign name, or simply if you want to change careers. Did you know that women have to send in 30% more applications than men, and that people of color have to send in 50% more applications than white people to get a job interview - simply because of human bias?

At Alva, we are committed to building an inclusive product that provides everyone with an equal opportunity to showcase their capabilities and where candidates can efficiently be matched with relevant job opportunities. We are currently seeking a collaborative Product Designer to join our team - and this could be the perfect fit for you!

The company
Alva Labs was founded in 2017 and offers a digital candidate assessment solution that helps over 500 companies worldwide drive more accurate and efficient hiring processes. Our platform provides Talent Acquisition Managers, Recruiters, and Hiring teams with the insights to make confident and efficient hiring decisions while delivering a high-quality candidate experience. At the same time, we provide candidates with the means to demonstrate their full potential to employers.

We develop easy-to-use assessments based on leading research in psychometrics, best-in-class coding tests, and a smooth, modern workflow that integrates with other HR platforms. All tied together in a fantastic user experience. This matters because it enables high-impact matches between companies’ needs and candidates’ potential.

The role
Design is not just part of Alva. It’s baked into every step of the way how we build our products and services. One of our most appreciated features is the ease of use and the user experience. Features we have managed to deliver thanks to our great designers.

Our team of Designers reports to our Chief Product Officer (CPO) and merges science and engineering to develop elegant solutions and a user-friendly product. They work in close collaboration with each other and their squads. We believe that Designers should possess the ability to identify the right problems, evaluate and propose effective solutions, and articulate ways to build the right thing.

In your day-to-day work, you will:

Work in a highly collaborative fashion with Product Managers, Engineers, Data Scientists, Sales reps, and Customer Success Managers to define both long-term strategy and short-term tactics.

Be self-sufficient by taking full ownership of your work. You will be responsible for every detail, every step of the way, from whiteboard sketching to high-fidelity build specifications.

Rapidly produce multiple concepts and workflows, understanding when deeper exploration is warranted and when it is best to change paths and try another approach.

Plan, conduct, and analyze user research with recruiters, customers, and candidates. Take into account existing insights, technical constraints, business needs, and specific platform demands to produce data-informed solutions.

Contribute to product growth through experimentation and optimization of existing user journeys.

Participate in design reviews and share your work regularly with the design and leadership teams to constantly improve the product and ensure consistent, great UX across all product surfaces.

Collaborate with the other designers and adjacent teams to continuously improve our Ways of working in Design.



You
This time, we are seeking an experienced Product Designer that has a solid track record of working with design systems and launching products. While experience with a SaaS product is preferred, we value your expertise regardless of whether it lies in B2C, B2B, or agency contexts, as long as you have a track record of seeing your designs being shipped to production and having iterated on them based on user feedback.

Today the design team is small, but as we grow, so will the team, and it will also mean a need for a design leader. We love filling teamlead roles with internal promotions and think that you have the aspiration and potential to lead the team down the line.

To be a successful candidate, you:

Have extensive work experience as a Product Designer, UI/UX Designer, and/or Visual Designer.

Possess core design skill sets, including visual design, prototyping, interaction design, and information architecture.

Have plenty of experience in planning, conducting, and analyzing user research.

Excel in explaining your work, process, and findings to cross-functional stakeholders, actively seeking feedback to produce your best work.

Thrive in ambiguous situations and possess a knack for finding opportunities that others may overlook.

Take ownership over design projects from start to finish, independently involving and leading contributors such as product managers, engineers, and people scientists to a successful outcome.

Fluency in English is a must, as it is our organizational language. However, Swedish proficiency is not required.



What we offer
Alva’s team of 70ish people represents 18 (!) different nationalities and a wide selection of professional backgrounds within everything from growing tech companies, psychology, psychometrics, data science, engineering, and product design.

The problem we are solving is not just engaging and interesting (the combination of psychological science and statistics, with a large chunk of candidate experience obsession, what’s not to love?!), but it is also something that has a tremendous impact on both people and businesses. You will have the opportunity to work with something that truly makes a difference. We have come a long way and have happy users - both candidates and customers - but we are only getting started. It is now time to take the next big steps in becoming what we want to become; the product that can be the game-changer in company building around the world.

Besides, we have flexible work hours and apply a hybrid-remote setup, where you can choose yourself what works best for you, either from our newly renovated office in central Stockholm or from wherever you decide you do your best work. You will get seven weeks of vacation, an on-market salary, a generous wellness allowance, and a few other neat perks.

The hiring process
Given that we claim to be experts in hiring, you probably wonder what we have in store for you.

The company
If one should summarize what we as a company are doing, it could be something like this:

Alva Labs is a Stockholm-based SaaS company that offers a solution that is helping global companies grow their team in a scientific way. Alva has created a unique candidate assessment platform that helps companies build their organizations with the right people in the right place. Combining state-of-the-art psychometrics, data science, and an obsession with candidate experience, it provides the needed tool for data-driven talent acquisition.

Our main focus as of now is to launch our next big product bet that will revolutionize how the world hires talent. By broadening our product offering we will be able to better serve our customers and solve a larger part of their problem. We have also reworked out commercial focus to work with larger and more complex organizations. We believe that by serving this segment, we neutralise the impact of the economic environment and maximise our impact on how the market views talent.


The role
Customer Success is the beating heart at Alva. It is the team that works closest with our customers, that has the richest insights to share with our Product team on how to solve the hiring problem, as well as the team with the most know-how on bridging the gap between science and practice.

As the department matures, we are building out meaningful and exciting processes that help us and our customers to work better. You will spend a chunk of your time collaborating with your Alva teammates to drive this change.

If you join our team you will;

- Cultivate and develop relationships with our customers' decision-makers and key stakeholders - ensuring Alva is seen as a strategic recruitment partner rather than just a software vendor.

- Comfortably interact with stakeholders at all levels - profoundly understanding your customers’ objectives, challenges, and expectations.

- Drive adoption and usage of Alva to unlock upsell opportunities

- Have a diverse portfolio of customers traversing sectors, sizes and markets.

What to expect from your first months?
Research shows (did we mention we love science?) that it’s crucial to get a good start when changing jobs. During your first months with us, your main focuses will be;

- Receiving a full overview of how the product works and how we approach CS at Alva so you can have success in your role.

- Shadowing your colleagues' meetings and picking up customers of your own.

- Upskilling yourself while contributing to key projects both in CS and across our commercial teams.

- Getting to know the team - there'll be no shortage of social occasions!

You
We obviously believe in finding the right person, rather than the right CV. That said, some things would make us really happy;

- If you have solid experience working with psychometric assessments. Either in a role as Talent Acquisition Partner, HR Specialist, Psychologist, Customer Success Manager, or similar.

- If you already have a background in Customer Success, where you have worked with stakeholder management within different seniority levels.

- Thrive in an ambitious environment. We have high expectations for our work and try to push ourselves to really make an impact on our customers.

- We are proud to represent eighteen (and counting!) nationalities at Alva and - given our ambitious expansion plans - written and verbal fluency in English is a must. For this position, Swedish is also a requirement.

Your future colleagues
We are a team of 60+ people, representing a wide selection of professional backgrounds. The common denominator is the excitement for our mission, the create a fair and efficient job market. There is a lot of engagement and eagerness to build something spectacular together with other highly talented individuals.

What about the Customer Success team, you might wonder? Well, let me tell you there was never a more lovely bunch of people to call your colleagues. With deep knowledge and experience, a large cup of service-mindedness, and a pinch of laughter, they are the perfect recipe for both NRR growth and customer satisfaction.

Why join Alva?
The problem we are solving is not just engaging and interesting (the combination of psychological science and statistics, with a large chunk of candidate experience obsession, what’s not to love?), but it is also something that has a tremendous impact on both people and businesses. You will have the opportunity to work with something that truly makes a difference.

Apart from this, we try our best to keep the feedback loops short to iteratively improve our product and our system, by listening to suggestions, improvements and ideas every day. For this to be possible, we need a modern system that is pleasant to work with. The core of our tech stack is;

A woman has to send in 30% more applications to get a job. For a person of color, that number goes up to 50%. At the same time, only 19% of all hires made are deemed to be a complete success. Some candidates never get a fair chance, while others are getting flooded with requests. Simply based on a few lines on a CV or on Linkedin.
There is something seriously wrong with the hiring market. We want to change that. Don’t you? This is your chance! Alva Labs is looking for another Engineering Manager to drive one of our squads.
The company
Alva Labs was founded in 2017 and offers a digital candidate assessment solution that helps over 500 companies worldwide drive more accurate and efficient hiring processes. Our platform provides Talent Acquisition Managers, Recruiters, and Hiring teams the insights to make confident and efficient hiring decisions while delivering a high-quality candidate experience. At the same time, we provide candidates with the means to demonstrate their full potential to employers.
We develop easy-to-use assessments based on leading research in psychometrics, best-in-class coding tests, and a smooth, modern workflow that integrates with other HR platforms. All tied together in a fantastic user experience. This matters because it enables high-impact matches between companies’ needs and candidates’ potential.
The role
Working as an Engineering Manager at Alva combines the best of two worlds; people leadership with technical leadership. You will play an instrumental part in the future of the engineering team as you will be responsible for staffing and developing the people in your squad. Apart from day-to-day managerial work, you will act as a knowledgeable leader and sounding board to the team members, thanks to your solid experience in software engineering.
The department has (like the rest of the company) developed extensively over the last 18 months. Today we are a team of almost 20 engineers divided into four squads focusing on different aspects of the product. Your squad is owning the core assessment functions including psychometrics and interviews. In close collaboration with other experienced engineers as well as designers and product managers, you will make sure we make a difference for thousands of candidates and recruiters, worldwide.
You
To be the next addition to our Engineering management team, we believe you have solid work experience as a software engineer in different parts of the stack. Ideally, you have led technical discovery work and projects before, and thrive in doing so. Except that, you:
Are a humble and empathic leader with experience leading other engineers.
Enjoy working in a fast-paced startup environment where things change often as our knowledge of our problem domain increases.
Has a customer-centric mindset to problem-solving and software engineering.
Are ambitious and goal-striving, ready for a growth journey in a forward-leaning company.
Are a prestigeless team player that enjoys sharing your knowledge to help other team members improve their engineering skills.
Have excellent communication skills. Our internal language is English, so no need to speak Swedish.

What we offer
We strongly believe that experimentation is the best way of learning and making decisions about product and technology. That means that change is our only constant and that you will be part of an exciting journey where no day is like the other.
Apart from this, we try our best to keep the feedback loops short to iteratively improve our product and our system, by listening to suggestions, improvements and ideas every day. For this to be possible, we need a modern system that is pleasant to work with. The core of our tech stack is;
Python
React, JavaScript/TypeScript
Google Cloud Platform
Pub/Sub
Postgre, Firestore
Kubernetes, Cloud Run
GraphQL
Protocol buffers
Event-driven microservices
Described in more detail ? HERE ?.

Other things to look forward to if you join our team are;
A team of knowledgeable Engineers and Engineering managers to learn from and grow with.
7 weeks of vacation!
On-market salary and stock options.
Flexible work hours and a hybrid model (you decide if you are at the office or remote within Europe).
A well-used and appreciated system to work on.
A company that actually puts the product first.
70ish coworkers from 18+ nationalities.
A value- & purpose-driven organization that has the opportunity to change the world of hiring, and impact lives (read about our company values ? HERE ?).

The hiring process
Given that we claim to be experts in hiring, you probably wonder what we have in store for you.
Objective screening with screening questions and Alva’s psychometric tests
First interview with HR
Optional meet-n-greet with a future colleague
Take-home tech assignment
System Design interview with CTO (who is also the hiring manager)
Final interview with COO
Background check (yes, we do take security seriously)

Business Analyst to Alva Labs
The average recruiter spends 7 seconds on a CV. The average adult reading speed is 200-250 words per minute. Seven seconds gives you on average 23-29 words. That is the candidate’s shot to prove you are a good match for a job position.

The result? A hiring scene that discriminates based on (but is not limited to) gender, age, and ethnicity. Not because recruiters are doing a poor job, but because the wrong tools and processes are used.

Alva can change this! We are helping our 400+ local and global companies to change how to hire, how to view talent, and how to find hidden gems. Perhaps you want to join the journey?

The company
If one should summarize what we as a company are doing, it could be something like this:

Alva Labs is a Stockholm-based SaaS company that offers a solution to help global companies grow their team in a scientific way. Combining state-of-the-art psychometrics, data science, and an obsession with candidate experience, we provide the ultimate tool for data-driven talent acquisition. Alva also serves candidates by allowing them to discover what job opportunities are the best matches, given each candidate’s unique background, personality and ability. In fancy words: Alva is becoming a SaaS-enabled talent marketplace, matching companies and candidates.

We have been growing 1.5-3x per year (in terms of people, revenue, users, and customers) and are in the exciting phase to launch our product in new markets. The core of everything we do is our product. We have come a long way and have happy users - both candidates and customers - but we are only getting started. It is now time to take the next big steps in becoming what we want to become; the product that can be the game-changer in company building around the world.

The role
Working as a Business Analyst at Alva Labs will require you to wrap your head around some exciting tasks, loads of data… and have a lot of fun while doing so. You will be essential in specifying and prioritizing KPIs across the company; from sales and marketing to financial metrics, and collaborate with passionate colleagues from all teams.

Not only will you lead the way in defining the data - you will play an instrumental role in making sure it is available to the relevant people in a convenient way. Analytics at Alva is not a new thing. It has been a core function since the early days, and we are getting ready to transform it into the performance enabler it should be. We do conscious efforts to be more data-centric and have as a target for next year that everyone in our company should have access to, and understand, the data they need.

Daily work will include, but is not limited to:

- Analyze and make sense of our data.

- Proactively identify gaps in the data.

- Support others in making informed decisions.

- Support in financial planning and forecasting. Get an overview of the company and together with the Head of Finance identify how we can improve.

- Own the visualization tool and make sure that what we need is there, that it’s up to date and that it works as intended.

- Be part of the cross-department RevOps squad to gather input and align on how to work with data at Alva.



About you
We obviously believe in finding the right person, rather than the right CV. That said, we need you to be confident enough to lead the data analysis work and to work independently. Here are some things that would make us really happy;

- Some experience from working as a data/business analyst, data scientist, programmer, or similar adjacent role.

- Solid expertise in . Python is a bonus, but not a requirement.

- Self-going and result-oriented with a high sense of urgency.

- Excellent communication skills. - We are proud to have a diverse team at Alva and given our continued expansion plans, written and verbal fluency in English is a must. For this position, Swedish is not a requirement.




What’s our stack?
- We host our product on Google Cloud Platform and use a plethora of their different products. Most relevant from an analytics perspective is that we use BigQuery (https://cloud.google.com/bigquery) as our data warehouse.

- Data is then transferred and unified with Weld (https://weld.app/), an end-to-end data operations platform, built on top of the data warehouse. All data operations - from ingestion to modeling, to activation - happen from within the Weld app. Finally, we use Metabase (https://www.metabase.com/) as our visualization tool.

- Slack is at the center of our work. For example, we push our most important usage to metrics to slack every day for the company to keep up to date.



Your future colleagues
We are currently a team of 70+ people, representing 18 different nationalities and a wide selection of professional backgrounds. You will hang out with psychologists, PhDs, engineers, and designers, and work towards our common mission: to make hiring better.

We believe in freedom and optimize our work for a hybrid approach, so working from home or at the office is your choice. At the same time, we all agree that collaboration is key to nurturing a pleasant work environment, which is why we put efforts into optimizing for supporting remote-first. Our office is located in central Stockholm, but you will have colleagues located all over Europe.



Why join Alva?
The problem we are solving is not just engaging and interesting (the combination of psychological science and statistics, with a large chunk of obsession for the candidate experience - what’s not to love?!), but it is also something that has a tremendous impact on both people and businesses. You will have the opportunity to work with something that truly makes a difference in a company that is growing rapidly.

Besides, we have flexible work hours, where you can decide for yourself what works best for you. You will get 7 weeks of vacation, an on-market salary, employee stock options, a generous preventive care benefit, and a few other neat perks. You can read all about our benefits ?

The role
Design is not just part of Alva. It’s baked into every step of the way how we build our products and services. One of our most appreciated features is the ease of use and the user experience. Features we have managed to deliver thanks to our great designers.
Our team of Designers reports to our Chief Product Officer (CPO) and merges science and engineering to develop elegant solutions and a user-friendly product. They work in close collaboration with each other and their squads. We believe that Designers should possess the ability to identify the right problems, evaluate and propose effective solutions, and articulate ways to build the right thing.
In your day-to-day work, you will:
Work in a highly collaborative fashion with Product Managers, Engineers, Data Scientists, Sales reps, and Customer Success Managers to define both long-term strategy and short-term tactics.
Be self-sufficient by taking full ownership of your work. You will be responsible for every detail, every step of the way, from whiteboard sketching to high-fidelity build specifications.
Rapidly produce multiple concepts and workflows, understanding when deeper exploration is warranted and when it is best to change paths and try another approach.
Plan, conduct, and analyze user research with recruiters, customers, and candidates. Take into account existing insights, technical constraints, business needs, and specific platform demands to produce data-informed solutions.
Contribute to product growth through experimentation and optimization of existing user journeys.
Participate in design reviews and share your work regularly with the design and leadership teams to constantly improve the product and ensure consistent, great UX across all product surfaces.
Collaborate with the other designers and adjacent teams to continuously improve our Ways of working in Design.

You
This time, we are seeking an experienced Product Designer that has a solid track record of working with design systems and launching products. While experience with a SaaS product is preferred, we value your expertise regardless of whether it lies in B2C, B2B, or agency contexts, as long as you have a track record of seeing your designs being shipped to production and having iterated on them based on user feedback.
Today the design team is small, but as we grow, so will the team, and it will also mean a need for a design leader. We love filling teamlead roles with internal promotions and think that you have the aspiration and potential to lead the team down the line.
To be a successful candidate, you:
Have extensive work experience as a Product Designer, UI/UX Designer, and/or Visual Designer.
Possess core design skill sets, including visual design, prototyping, interaction design, and information architecture.
Have plenty of experience in planning, conducting, and analyzing user research.
Excel in explaining your work, process, and findings to cross-functional stakeholders, actively seeking feedback to produce your best work.
Thrive in ambiguous situations and possess a knack for finding opportunities that others may overlook.
Take ownership over design projects from start to finish, independently involving and leading contributors such as product managers, engineers, and people scientists to a successful outcome.
Fluency in English is a must, as it is our organizational language. However, Swedish proficiency is not required.

What we offer
Alva’s team of 70ish people represents 18 (!) different nationalities and a wide selection of professional backgrounds within everything from growing tech companies, psychology, psychometrics, data science, engineering, and product design.
The problem we are solving is not just engaging and interesting (the combination of psychological science and statistics, with a large chunk of candidate experience obsession, what’s not to love?!), but it is also something that has a tremendous impact on both people and businesses.

You will get seven weeks of vacation, an on-market salary, a generous wellness allowance, and a few other neat perks.

You spend half of your waking life working. Finding the right job really matters. Unfortunately, around 40% of all hires are seen as unsuccessful. It can be due to the employee leaving earlier than expected, problems in performance, lack of opportunities for growth, and many other reasons. But it doesn’t have to be like this.

Alva Labs is now looking for our very first Staff Engineer for our newly started Platform squad. This is a key role in order to raise the bar for how the engineering team works. You will play an instrumental part in improving the developer experience at Alva as well as leading cross-squad initiatives. And most importantly: have an impact on the way companies hire.

Excited yet? Continue to read!



The company
If one should summarise what we as a company are doing, it could be something like this:

Alva Labs is a Stockholm-based SaaS company that offers a solution to help global companies grow their team in a scientific way. Combining state-of-the-art psychometrics, data science, and an obsession with candidate experience, we provide the needed tool for data-driven talent acquisition. Alva also serves candidates by allowing them to discover what job opportunities are the best matches, given each candidate’s unique background, personality and ability. In fancy words: Alva is becoming a SaaS-enabled talent marketplace, matching companies and candidates.

We have been growing 2-3x per year (in terms of people, revenue, users, and customers) and are in the exciting phase to launch our product in new markets. The core of everything we do is our product. We have come a long way and have happy users - both candidates and customers - but we are only getting started. It is now time to take the next big steps in becoming what we want to become; the product that can be the game-changer in company building around the world.





The role
You will be the first Staff Engineer on Alva’s engineering team, meaning you will have room to define the role and set an example for others. Your time will be split between writing code in the context of your squad and leading cross-squad engineering initiatives. This role will enable you to have a big impact on how Alva works with technology, both within the engineering department as well as the company as a whole. On a day-to-day basis, you will;

- Have fun!

- Write code!

- Facilitate and lead a cross-squad architecture forum with senior representatives from each squad.

- Together with the cross-squad architecture forum, own Alva’s tech roadmap.

- Prioritize what technical improvements the engineering team should be focusing on right now.

- Set the direction for where Alva Engineering is heading from a technical point of view, both in the medium-long and long term.





The team
The engineering department has (like the rest of the company) developed extensively over the last 12 months. Today we are a team of around 15 developers and are now about to introduce a Platform squad to continuously work on the developer experience. This is something we believe must be a top priority as both our system and our team expand. We are already successfully working in cross-functional product squads, so this is a natural next step for us in our growth journey.

The platform squad’s mission is to empower the product squads to do their day-to-day work more efficiently on their own. Together with 2-3 other developers, you will support them with the tools and services needed to enable them to ship and work with our code base efficiently.

Within the platform squad, you will work with initiatives such as (but not limited to);

- Building tooling that improves the local development environment for all engineers at Alva.

- Improve the observability of our system by both introducing new tools and improving the usage of our existing tools.

- Take the way that we build and deploy our services to the next level.

- Own, operate and improve our GraphQL schema federation gateway.

- Working on important security initiatives together with our Head of Information Security.





You
To be a fit for this role, we believe you are well-versed in the backend landscape. Preferably you love Python and Google cloud as much as we do, but to be honest - we care more about if you are a skilled developer with the right mindset than knowing every inch of our tech stack. Given that this is a senior position, we expect you to have solid knowledge about cloud architecture and best practices related to how to write secure code.

You will also be a qualified candidate if you:

- Are an expert in Backend programming, DevOps, and Site Reliability Engineering

- Have solid experience in technical project management

- Love solving complex problems and turning them into solutions that breathe simplicity

- Are ambitious and structured

- Are a prestigeless team player

- Are an efficient communicator with great skills in English. There is no need to speak Swedish.





What we offer
We strongly believe that experimentation is the best way of learning and making decisions about product and technology. Therefore, we try our best to keep the feedback loops short to iteratively improve our product and our system. For this to be possible, we need a modern system that is pleasant to work with. The core of our tech stack is;

- Python

- Google Cloud Platform

- Pub/Sub

- Postgre, Firestore

- Kubernetes, Cloud Run

- Protocol buffers

- Typescript

- Event-driven microservices

- A team of knowledgeable Engineers and Engineering managers to learn from and grow with.

- 7 weeks of vacation!

- On-market salary and stock options.

- Flexible work hours and a hybrid model (you decide if you are at the office or remote within Europe).

- A well-used and appreciated system to work on.

Senior Machine Learning Engineer to Alva Labs
Ever applied for a job that suited you perfectly, but didn’t even get a call-back for a first interview? Yeah, it has happened to most of us. But sadly, it often happens for the wrong reasons. For instance, you have a 60% less chance to get a callback if you have an Arabic-sounding name. If it was for a leadership role, you are less likely to get it if you are a woman, or if you are short (yes, you read that correctly, short!).

But it doesn’t have to be like this. There are alternatives to hire based on the stuff that really matters, based on who the person behind the CV is. Alva is one of those alternatives. We are now looking for a Senior Machine Learning Engineer that can help us drive growth, and help our customers to start implementing the future of hiring, today! ????

The company
Alva Labs offers a SaaS solution that is helping global companies hire in a scientific way. Our unique candidate assessment platform helps companies build their organizations with the right people in the right place. By combining state-of-the-art psychometrics, data science, and an obsession with candidate experience, we provide an industry-leading tool for data-driven talent acquisition.

We have been growing 2-3x yearly and are now focusing on international expansion and making the next big product bet that will revolutionize how the world views talent.

The role
Our psychometric assessments are truly the core of the Alva product. Test development at Alva is built on top of strong scientific findings in the area of personnel assessment and selection. We rely on a data science toolbox in Python (NumPy, Pandas, Scipy, Matplotlib) and (BigQuery) to manipulate, analyze and visualize data. Our models are implemented in the probabilistic programming languages PyMC and NumPyro and we use cutting-edge sampling techniques to estimate item parameters.

As we grow, we need to scale up our testing capabilities. Among other things, this means refining, packaging, and scaling up our internal psychometric software.

The main areas of responsibility will include:
- Being part of building the core of our product to help our companies make better hiring decisions.

- Develop robust and scalable data processing and modeling projects.

- Automate parts of the test development process.

- Develop and improve algorithms for estimation of psychological traits and abilities.

- Collaborate with software engineers, data analysts, people scientists, sales representatives and customer success managers.



You
To be a fit for this role, you have studied quantitative methods in any field with a substantial degree of complexity and statistical uncertainty (e.g. psychology, economics, political science, physics, biology). You have worked with real data, ideally in large volumes, and appreciate the importance of automation, testing, and reproducibility for data processing.

Other things that make you a qualified candidate are:

- Solid knowledge in Python and .

- Curious and strong learner.

- Reliable - complete what you take on with high standards for quality.

- Self-motivated - able to work independently.

- Strong communicator - able to explain complex statistical concepts in a digestible way to various stakeholders.

- Language - The working language at Alva is English.

- Swedish is not a requirement for this position






Bonus requirements that will make you stand out:

- Experience in Bayesian modeling using Stan, PyMC, NumPyro, Turing, BlackJAX, or any other probabilistic programming language is highly meriting.

- Knowledge in modern test theory (Item Response Theory / Latent Trait Theory) is meriting.



Your future colleagues
We are in total a team of 80ish people, representing 18 different nationalities and a wide selection of professional backgrounds. We are based in central Stockholm - but apply a hybrid remote work setup - with a collective and extensive experience in building and growing tech companies, psychology, psychometrics, data science, engineering, and product design.



Why join Alva?
The problem we are solving has a tremendous impact on both people and businesses. You will have the opportunity to work with something that truly makes a difference. We are now entering an exciting phase of our company journey, and this role will be central to where we go next!

Besides, we have flexible work hours, where you can decide for yourself what works best for you. You will get 7 weeks of vacation, an on-market salary, a generous preventive care benefit, and a few other neat perks.

Senior Fullstack Engineer to Alva Labs
There is something seriously broken with recruitment.

- Candidates struggle to show who they are and instead spend time in tedious processes.

- Companies miss out on talent due to focusing on old-fashioned success markers.

- Studies indicate that more than 40% of all hires are unsuccessful



Do you want to be part of the solution? Our dream team in engineering is growing and we want more talented people onboard, to take part in building a product that reaches thousands of users - candidates and recruiters - daily.



The company
If one should summarize what we as a company are doing, it could be something like this:

Alva Labs is a Stockholm-based SaaS company that offers a solution that is helping global companies grow their team in a scientific way. Alva has created a unique candidate assessment platform that helps companies build their organizations with the right people in the right place. Combining state-of-the-art psychometrics, data science, and an obsession with candidate experience, it provides the needed tool for data-driven talent acquisition. Alva has been growing 2-3x per year (in terms of people, users, and customers) and is in the exciting phase to launch our product in new markets.

Our main focus as of now is to continue our international expansion into new markets and to make the next big product bet that will revolutionize how the world views talent. By broadening our product scope we believe that we will have an even stickier offering for our customers and will be able to add value to even more hiring managers, recruiting for a larger range of roles. We have also recently launched a new monetization model designed to facilitate land and expand motions with customers. It's an exciting time at Alva!





The role
The day-to-day work in Alva’s engineering team is performed in product squads focused on different product surfaces. Currently, we’re divided into three different squads, but by the end of the year, we are looking to be at least five squads. Each team aims to be self-sufficient and consists of a Product Manager, Designer, and three to five engineers.



Within 1 month you:

- Have received the support you need in order to get a good start at Alva.

- Start to familiarize yourself with the product and the platform.

- Start contributing to the team’s work.



Within 3 months you:

- Been programming in all parts of the tech stack. All the way from frontend to backend and cloud infrastructure.

- Have helped your team build new features quicker than we otherwise would have - the velocity has increased significantly.



Within 6 months you:

- Impact the quality of the product, getting to the point where we fix all bugs and are improving performance metrics.

- Are a technical role model and informal leader within your team.

- Feel proud of the product and the codebase.







You
Your background isn’t super important to us, as we are more interested in who you are as a person. Ideally, you have several years of experience working with building distributed systems and have led technical discovery work in the past. We don’t care about which programming languages you’ve been using until now, as long as you thrive in learning new ones.

We would also be happy if you;

- Love solving complex problems and turning them into solutions that breathe simplicity.

- Are ambitious and structured.

- Are a prestigeless team player and enjoy supporting your coworkers.

- Our day-to-day language is English, so no need to speak Swedish.







Your future colleagues
We are a team of 80+ people, representing a wide selection of professional backgrounds. And all of that is absolutely fantastic, but the true beauty is the trust and warmth you will experience. You will most likely never be in a place where people are as nerdy about what we do, and have so many brilliant minds to learn from and ask for guidance. To quote our CEO during our last company trip, “It feels like hanging out with a bunch of old friends”.

We currently have a hybrid approach with colleagues both in Sweden and other parts of Europe, so working from home or at the office is your choice.If you want to creep out on this (perhaps your future) ? team (https://www.notion.so/alvalabs/People-9b32574c8b3747759680da1dbda59b35) ?, fire away!

You will have the opportunity to work with something that truly makes a difference. We are now entering an exciting phase of our company journey, doubling down on new markets and an international expansion. The company and the team have grown a lot in the last couple of months, and we are just getting started! There will be so many more opportunities to come.

Head of Information Security to Alva Labs
Let us tell you a little story. There once was a girl that moved to Sweden from Pakistan. She had a great education, but no work experience from the Swedish market. She started applying for jobs, got rejected, applied for more jobs, got more rejections, and that was how the terrible pingpong game continued for quite some time. Despite having so much to offer, she was never given the opportunity. Often she never even got to go on an interview. She was given advice such as “change your last name”, you will never get in with a foreign name. After months and months of this, she found a company that hired through objective methods. Psychometric tests to be exact. For the first time, she got the same opportunity as all the other candidates to show what she could provide the organization. She got the job. And guess what? She is now one of the most appreciated colleagues both based on her performance and her awesomeness. Oh, by the way, it might be your future colleague, because she is working at Alva Labs.

At Alva, we work hard every day to create happy endings for more candidates across the globe. Job hunting shouldn’t be as hard as it is. Come help us change that!

Senior Full-stack engineer to Alva Labs
The average recruiter spends around 7 seconds screening a CV. That is equivalent to the time it takes to get a first impression of someone at a party. In both scenarios the human brain simplifies things, making us focus on certain aspects. Based on very limited information (such as looks, name, profession) our brain helps us to place the individual in a mental box and assign traits to that person. The only difference in first impressions through CVs and during a party, is that the CV screening impacts people’s lives. It leads to some people being shut out from the job market, and others being hunted down by everyone, regardless of understanding if that particular person is actually suitable for the job or not.

We want to change that. Armed with research, machine learning and a revolutionizing SaaS-tool, Alva Labs is disrupting the hiring scene.

Customer & Candidate Support Manager

There are two types of being in this universe: those who support and those who do not.” Lovers of the Marvel Cinematic Universe will recognise that we’ve paraphrased this quote from Guardians Of The Galaxy. While we’re not protecting mysterious orbs from getting into the wrong hands, we are assembling our very own guardians of the customer and candidate Alva galaxy. Interested? Read on.

Customer Support sits at the centre of all that’s important to Alva both today - to deliver industry leading service to candidates and customers - and tomorrow.

We’re trying to push the paradigm of what Customer Support means, with the sole goal of providing the best possible experience to all Alva stakeholders. We believe that Support is more than a transactional “customer/candidate asks question”, “customer/candidate gets answer”. For us, every single customer interaction is an opportunity to surprise, delight, educate and go above and beyond reasonable expectation.

The company
Alva Labs offers a SaaS solution that is helping global companies grow their team in a scientific way. Alva has created a unique candidate assessment platform that helps companies build their organisations with the right people in the right place. By combining state-of-the-art psychometrics, data science, and an obsession with candidate experience, it provides the needed tool for data-driven talent acquisition.

We are growing 2-3X per year and are in the exciting phase to launch Alva in new markets. Currently, we are focussing on international expansion into new markets and making the next big product bet that will revolutionise how the world views talent.

The role
Initially, this is a hybrid role, you will take on both Customer & Candidate Support responsibilities (50% time) and will also be responsible for guiding customers through the onboarding stage of working with Alva (the other 50% time).

Support tasks will consist of, but not be limited to:

- Handling inbound conversations with candidates and customers via chat and email.

- Being able to troubleshoot technical issues and showing clear problem solving skills. You’re comfortable analysing and reporting bugs through rigorous testing.

- Flexibility. The Support team is Alva’s smallest function but the team spirit is strongly rooted. We’re always on hand to help each other even if that means taking on tasks that are completely new.

- We expect you to take a genuine interest in how we can improve our product for key stakeholders.



Onboarding tasks will consist of, but not be limited to:

- Run onboarding meetings with newly signed customers.

- Deliver manager trainings and deep dives with customers.

- Be a resource that customers can turn to in the first months of their partnership with Alva.

- Help to iterate training and onboarding materials

- Collaborate with our Product team to assist with in-platform education.



You
We believe in finding the right person, rather than the right CV. That said, if you already have a background in Psychology, Customer Support or Onboarding - that’s always an upside. There’s no shortage of in-house thought leadership around psychometrics and tests so a background in these areas is not a prerequisite but we’ll expect you to upskill and build confidence communicating the science behind Alva as a matter of priority.

We use a few different systems in our day to day work and we haven't quite found our favourites yet. This requires you to be comfortable working in several different systems simultaneously but also learning to use new ones. It’s important that you get energy from working with people and have great soft skills - flexibility and patience go a long way…

We’re proud to represent seventeen (and counting!) nationalities at Alva and - given our ambitious expansion plans - written and verbal fluency in English and Swedish is a must.

Your future colleagues
We are a team of 60+ people, representing 17 different nationalities and a wide selection of professional backgrounds. And all of that is absolutely fantastic, but the true beauty is the trust and warmth you will experience. You will most likely never feel so supported and have so many brilliant brains to learn from and ask for guidance. To quote our CEO during our last company trip: “It feels like hanging out with a bunch of old friends”.

Why join Alva?
The problem we are solving is not just engaging and interesting (the combination of Psychological Science and statistics with a large chunk of candidate experience obsession - what’s not to love…?), but it is also something that has a tremendous impact on both people and businesses. You will have the opportunity to work with something that truly makes a difference.

With 250+ customers, strong growth, happy users, and 160,000+ assessed candidates, there is a lot of greatness to build on. We are now entering an exciting phase of our company journey, where we are doubling down on new markets and an international expansion. The company and the team have grown a lot in the last couple of months (150% more customers, and 250% more employees during 2021). And we are just getting started! There will be so many more opportunities to come.

What’s more - we have flexible work hours, where you can decide for yourself what works best for you. You will get seven weeks of vacation, a generous preventive care benefit, and a few other neat perks. You can read all about our benefits here (https://www.notion.so/alvalabs/Benefits-1abeeb8de8004f6ab915f2fced70f057) and our company values here (https://www.notion.so/Alva-Values-630a69c6c72642f2b1caab5dab55b953).

Product Designer - Design systems
You know what is the strongest benefit for the Fellowship of the Ring? Diversity! Some hobbits, an elf, a dwarf, two humans and a wizard. The diversity of skills and background is what gets the ring to Mount Doom.

You know what is NOT diverse? Your average board meeting, management team, or, to be frank, average company. And that is actually causing lower levels of innovation and lower profitability. Because of how most companies recruit and view talent, they end up missing out on great talent, and great talent miss out on a lot of job opportunities. At Alva Labs, we want to change that.

We are now looking for a designer that can join our fast-growing team, and take our design system and product to the next level. Are you our next design-elf? Or design-wizard?



The company
Alva Labs is a Stockholm-based SaaS company that offers a solution that is helping global companies grow their team in a scientific way. Alva has created a unique candidate assessment platform that helps companies build their organisations with the right people in the right place. By combining state-of-the-art psychometrics, data science, and an obsession with candidate experience, it provides the needed tool for data-driven talent acquisition.

We are growing 2-3x per year and are in the exciting phase to launch Alva in new markets. Current focus is on building great product, enable Product-Lead-Growth and release our next big bets.

The role
As a designer at Alva you will be responsible end-to-end, working with both UX and UI (the designer for the squad we have in mind will be a bit heavier on the visual side though). You will not exactly be told what to do, but rather be given a problem. You will need to, with the help of user research and a great team, find a solution to that problem. You will be one of the leaders in the squad, driving a lot of the work together with the lead engineer. You will be responsible for how to organize design systems and language.

Alva can offer a fast-paced environment for you to thrive in, with a lot of opportunities to grow professionally.

You
We are looking for someone with a bit of experience, working with design systems and launching product before. B2C, B2B, agency, doesn’t really matter. But we believe you have a passion for prototyping and working with how to design things.

As a person you have good communication skills, enjoy working in an organized way, and have the ability to collaborate and work with others.

The internal language is English, so no need to speak Swedish.

Your future colleagues
We are a team of 60 people, representing 16 different nationalities and a wide selection of professional backgrounds. And all of that is absolutely fantastic, but the true beauty is the trust and warmth you will experience. You will most likely never be as supported and have so many brilliant minds to learn from and ask for guidance. To quote our CEO during our last company trip, “It feels like hanging out with a bunch of old friends”.

We have a hybrid approach, so working from home or at the office, is your choice.

Why join Alva?
The problem we are solving is not just engaging and interesting (the combination of psychological science and statistics, with a large chunk of candidate experience obsession, what’s not to love?!), but it is also something that has a tremendous impact on both people and businesses. You will have the opportunity to work with something that truly makes a difference.

With 250+ customers, strong growth, happy users, and 200 000+ assessed candidates, an NPS of 48, and a CSAT of +80, there is a lot of greatness to build from.

Besides, we have flexible work hours, where you can decide for yourself what works best for you.

Head of Legal to Alva Labs
Think back to the day you graduated from law school. The feeling of accomplishment, the newly ironed dress or shirt you were wearing, the excitement of soon entering into the “real” world as a lawyer! Think back to the hugs and waves of laughter between you and your classmates. And now to the million-dollar question, would you hire all your classmates? On paper, you were all equal. You had the same education, and therefore the same knowledge. But in reality?

This is a problem that all recruiters and hiring managers face every day. To try to distinguish a great hire amongst a pile of CVs, that are often fairly similar. This results in more than 40% of hires being deemed as failures, people with foreign backgrounds having a harder time getting into the job market, and candidates struggling to show who they truly are.

We have a solution to this problem, and we are in the need of a fantastic lawyer. So come help us revolutionize the world of hiring and build up our legal function, all at once!



The company
Alva Labs is a Stockholm-based SaaS company that offers a solution that is helping global companies grow their team in a scientific way. Alva has created a unique candidate assessment platform that helps companies build their organisations with the right people in the right place. By combining state-of-the-art psychometrics, data science, and an obsession with candidate experience, it provides the needed tool for data-driven talent acquisition.

We are growing 2-3x per year and are in the exciting phase to launch Alva in new markets.

The role
As the first legal hire, you will be responsible for the high’s and the low’s. You will spend your time building up the legal function from scratch, supporting in commercial dialogues, helping take Alva into new markets (both our offering and as an employer), and of course, handling all contacts with external law firms. We expect you to come tell us what needs to be done in order to “move the needle” for the company, meaning prioritizing the things that create an impact for the organization and our customers.

One thing that perhaps puts us apart from other fast-growing SaaS tech companies is the high focus on data security and GDPR. You will work with an external DPO and together ensure the safety of thousands of data subjects.

We will arm you with Pocketlaw, Scrive, OneFlow, opportunities to use external specialists, a MacBook, and amazing colleagues. Then the rest is up to you!

You
Need to have qualifications:

- Structure freak-ish tendencies

- Great people skills, you will be interacting with a lot of customers

- Entrepreneurial mindset



Nice to have qualifications:

- A few years working for a law firm

- A few years working as an in-house corporate lawyer



The internal language is English, so no need to speak Swedish.

Your future colleagues
We are a team of 60 people, representing 16 different nationalities and a wide selection of professional backgrounds. You will hang out with psychologists, PhDs, engineers, designers, ex professional dancers and athletes (for some reason, we have a lot of those), and more. If you want to creep out on this (perhaps your future) team, fire away! Creeping opportunity found HERE (https://www.notion.so/alvalabs/People-9b32574c8b3747759680da1dbda59b35).

We currently have a hybrid approach, so working from home or at the office, is your choice.

Why join Alva?
The problem we are solving is not just engaging and interesting (the combination of psychological science and statistics, with a large chunk of candidate experience obsession, what’s not to love?!), but it is also something that has a tremendous impact on both people and businesses. You will have the opportunity to work with something that truly makes a difference.

With 250+ customers, strong growth, happy users, and 200 000+ assessed candidates, an NPS of 48, and a CSAT of +80, there is a lot of greatness to build from.

Besides, we have flexible work hours, where you can decide for yourself what works best for you. You will get 7 weeks of vacation, an on-market salary, a generous preventive care benefit, and a few other neat perks. You can read all about our benefits HERE (https://www.notion.so/alvalabs/Benefits-1abeeb8de8004f6ab915f2fced70f057) and our company values HERE (https://www.notion.so/alvalabs/Alva-Values-630a69c6c72642f2b1caab5dab55b953).

Customer Success Manager to Alva Labs
If Marty McFly and Doc would have set the time-traveling DeLorean to 2021 they would have found a world where hoverboards haven’t quite exploded on the market (instead they would have found electric scooters, digital breakout rooms, and a metaverse). However, they would have found a hiring scene that hasn’t changed much from the 80s. Women still struggle (they need to send in 30% more applications than males), people of color still struggle (they need to send in 50% more applications than Caucasians), and non-natives still struggle (people with Arabic sounding names are 60% less likely to get a call back to an interview).

Imagine if they set the DeLorean just a few years ahead. Imagine if they came to a future where all candidates were assessed in the same way. Where all are seen for their potential and for who they are, not just for their gender, age, nationality, ethnicity, or other non-relevant factors. Alva is on the journey to create that world.

We are now looking to add another Customer Success Manager to the team, to help us and our customers move towards a brighter hiring future. And who knows, we might just build a hoverboard too.



The company
Alva Labs offers a SaaS solution that is helping global companies grow their team in a scientific way. Alva has created a unique candidate assessment platform that helps companies build their organisations with the right people in the right place. By combining state-of-the-art psychometrics, data science, and an obsession with candidate experience, it provides the needed tool for data-driven talent acquisition.

We are growing 2-3X per year and are in the exciting phase to launch Alva in new markets. Currently, we are focussing on international expansion into new markets and making the next big product bet that will revolutionise how the world views talent.

The role
- This is a highly commercial position. We measure success not just in terms of logo and revenue retention but revenue growth
- You’ll be given stretching expansion targets and will be expected to take responsibility for building and implementing strategies to deliver growth across existing customers
- You will cultivate and develop relationships with decision makers and key stakeholders - you’ll be tasked with ensuring Alva is seen as more than just a software vendor but instead as a strategic recruitment partner
- Comfortable interacting with stakeholders at all levels, you should profoundly understanding your customers’ objectives, challenges, and expectations
- You’ll work fluidly and will embrace driving commercially important initiatives to benefit our aggressive growth targets
- While Nordics-centric today, we’re expanding into new markets. You’ll have a diverse portfolio of customers traversing sectors, size and markets
- Fight injustice in recruitment alongside our industry category experts
- It’s a great time to join the Customer Success fold. As the department matures, we’re building out meaningful and exciting processes that help us and our customers to work better. You’ll spend a chunk of your time collaborating with your Alva teammates to drive this change


You
We believe in finding the right person, rather than the right CV. That said, if you already have a background in commercially-focussed Customer Success or are looking to make the switch from Account Management / Sales - that’s always very welcome. There’s no shortage of in-house thought leadership around psychometrics and tests, a background in these areas is not a prerequisite but we’ll expect you to handle and deliver commercial outcomes with customers from the get go. We’re proud to represent sixteen (and counting!) nationalities at Alva and - given our ambitious expansion plans - written and verbal fluency in English is a must. Lastly, while not expected, experience building a time-travelling DeLorean is bound to catch the eye!

Your future colleagues
We are a team of 50+ people, representing 16 different nationalities and a wide selection of professional backgrounds. And all of that is absolutely fantastic, but the true beauty is the trust and warmth you will experience. You will most likely never be as supported and have so many brilliant minds to learn from and ask for guidance. To quote our CEO during our last company trip, “It feels like hanging out with a bunch of old friends”.

What about the Customer Success team, you might wonder? Well, let me tell you there was never a more lovely bunch of brilliant minds. With deep knowledge and experience, a large cup of service-mindedness, and a pinch of laughter, they are the perfect recipe for both NRR growth and customer satisfaction.

If you want to creep out on this (perhaps your future) team (https://www.notion.so/alvalabs/People-9b32574c8b3747759680da1dbda59b35), fire away!

You will have the opportunity to work with something that truly makes a difference.

With 250+ customers, strong growth, happy users, and 160 000+ assessed candidates, there is a lot of greatness to build on. We are now entering an exciting phase of our company journey, where we are doubling down on new markets and an international expansion. The company and the team have grown a lot in the last couple of months (150% more customers, and 250% more employees during 2021, so far…). And we are just getting started! There will be so many more opportunities to come.

What’s more - we have flexible work hours, where you can decide for yourself what works best for you. You will get seven weeks of vacation, an on-market salary, a generous preventive care benefit, and a few other neat perks. You can read all about our benefits here (https://www.notion.so/alvalabs/Benefits-1abeeb8de8004f6ab915f2fced70f057) and our company values here (https://www.notion.so/alvalabs/Alva-Values-630a69c6c72642f2b1caab5dab55b953).

In The Karate Kid, we learn that a good teacher can be the difference between success and failure. At Alva, we are immensely proud of the product we’ve built and how it helps companies to build their organisations without bias. To get value from our product, our customers first need a clear understanding of how to use Alva and why our tests help them to achieve their goals. In this position, you will work with our customers in the early stages of the customer lifecycle - almost as their Alva teacher.

As Mr. Miyagi famously put it: “First learn [to] stand, then learn [to] fly. Nature’s rule, Daniel-San, not mine”, you will help our customers to do the same. You will give our customers the information and insights they need to get and up running in the platform but will also work with strategic customers to deliver bespoke deep dives. Once the customer is onboarded, you’ll hand the relationship to your colleagues in Customer Success to take forward.

We are now looking to add our first Onboarding Specialist to the team to help us to take the Customer Success team to the next level.

The company
Alva Labs offers a SaaS solution that is helping global companies grow their team in a scientific way. Alva has created a unique candidate assessment platform that helps companies build their organisations with the right people in the right place. By combining state-of-the-art psychometrics, data science, and an obsession with candidate experience, it provides the needed tool for data-driven talent acquisition.

We are growing 2-3X per year and are in the exciting phase to launch Alva in new markets. Currently, we are focussing on international expansion into new markets and making the next big product bet that will revolutionise how the world views talent.

The role
In 2022, Customer Success at Alva is maturing. We will divide the CS function into three distinct specialisations with the goal of providing customers with an even better experience working with Alva. The Onboarding sub-function will be tasked with ensuring that we set a strong foundation for ongoing success and that key stakeholders use Alva in line with best practice.

Given the congested psychometric landscape, customers understanding “the Alva way” is crucial to ensuring long-term relationships with customers. The Onboarding Specialist will work with customers - across all segments - to help them to see value from the product, begin to view Alva as an important part of their recruitment strategy and be fully self-sufficient with the platform.

Your tasks will consist of, but not be limited to:


Run onboarding meetings with newly signed customers

- Deliver manager trainings and deep dives with customers

- Deliver against stretching customer onboarding satisfaction scores

- Be a resource that customers can turn to in the first months of their partnership with Alva

- Help to iterate training and onboarding materials

- Collaborate with our Product team to assist with in-platform education

- Understand the Alva platform and “why” behind testing inside out - and be comfortable explaining this to users with varying levels of experience with psychometric testing





You
We believe in finding the right person, rather than the right CV. That said, if you already have a background in either Psychology or onboarding - that’s always very welcome. There’s no shortage of in-house thought leadership around psychometrics and tests so a background in these areas is not a prerequisite but we’ll expect you to upskill and build confidence communicating the science behind Alva as a matter of priority. We’re proud to represent seventeen (and counting!) nationalities at Alva and - given our ambitious expansion plans - written and verbal fluency in English is a must. While we don’t demand it, proving that you can catch a fly using just chopsticks may just get you the job.

Your future colleagues
We are a team of 50+ people, representing 17 different nationalities and a wide selection of professional backgrounds. And all of that is absolutely fantastic, but the true beauty is the trust and warmth you will experience. You will most likely never feel so supported and have so many brilliant brains to learn from and ask for guidance. To quote our CEO during our last company trip: “It feels like hanging out with a bunch of old friends”.

What about the Customer Success team, you might wonder? Well, let me tell you there was never a more lovely bunch of marvellous minds. With deep knowledge and experience, a large cup of service-mindedness, and a pinch of laughter, they are the perfect recipe for both revenue growth and customer satisfaction.

Why join Alva?
The problem we are solving is not just engaging and interesting (the combination of Psychological Science and statistics with a large chunk of candidate experience obsession - what’s not to love…?), but it is also something that has a tremendous impact on both people and businesses. You will have the opportunity to work with something that truly makes a difference.

The average recruiter spends 7 seconds on a CV. The average adult reading speed is 200-250 words per minute. Seven seconds gives you on average 23-29 words. That is your shot to prove you are a good match for a job position.

The result? A hiring scene that discriminates based on (but not limited to) gender, age, and ethnicity. Not because recruiters are doing a poor job, but because the wrong tools and processes are used.

Alva can change this! We are helping our 250+ local and global customers to change how to hire, change how to view talent, change how to find the hidden gems. Our first Key Account Manager position, sitting within the Customer Success team, is both an influential and a crucial hire for us. It represents a meaningful step on our mission to work even more strategically with our customers to deliver commercial outcomes - allowing Alva to drive growth not just through winning new business but by affecting positive NRR (Net Revenue Retention) with current customers.

Are you interested in making recruitment a fairer and better place? We’d love to hear from you!



The company
Alva Labs offers a SaaS solution that is helping global companies grow their team in a scientific way. Alva has created a unique candidate assessment platform that helps companies build their organizations with the right people in the right place.

We are growing 2-3x per year and are at the exciting point of launching Alva in new markets. Currently, we are focussing on international expansion into new markets and making the next big product bet that will revolutionize how the world views talent.

The role


- Operating as a commercially-focussed specialist within the Customer Success team, you will work closely with CSMs to deliver commercial outcomes - ranging from securing challenging renewals to winning juicy referrals to delivering exciting upsells





- As such, your KPIs will be highly commercial. Your bread and butter will be revenue retention and you will also be given growth targets to own





- To have success in the role, you’ll need to work closely with the rest of the CS to identify opportunities across the customer base (there’s no shortage!) and will be expected to take responsibility for building and implementing strategies to deliver against these opportunities





- A relationship-heavy position, you’ll spend much of your time working with stakeholders - internal and external - to hit your targets and KPIs. You’ll be as comfortable building relationships on Zoom as in person





- While Nordics-centric today, we’re expanding into new markets. You’ll work across a diverse portfolio of customers traversing sectors, size and markets





- You’ll be expected to upskill on how our product works, the problem we solve and learn the language of HR and TAM senior executives to build trust and secure Alva buy-in





- It’s a great time to join the Customer Success fold. As the department matures, we’re building out meaningful and exciting processes that help us and our customers to work better. You’ll spend a chunk of your time collaborating with your Alva teammates to drive this change

Product Manager to Alva Labs
Back in the day, if your father was a blacksmith, you would grow up to be a blacksmith. If you wanted to do something different, that was pretty much impossible. But all of that has changed now, right? You can be anything you want to be!

Well, it depends. Looking at research the recruitment scene is dark. If you are a woman, you need to send in 30% more applications than men. If you are a person of color, that number goes up to 50%. If you have a foreign-sounding name, you are 60% less likely to get a call back to an interview (regardless of the level of experience). If you are too old, or too young, you will struggle to get a job. If your BMI is higher, it will be harder too. So unless you are a white, middle-aged, male with the right-sounding name, things haven’t changed much since medieval times. You will still inherit your profession…

It doesn’t have to be like this! There is a way to change all of this. Through a combination of science, machine learning, and a stellar user experience, Alva Labs is taking recruitment into the 21st century. Come join us change the future of hiring!



Alva who?
Alva is a SaaS tool used for candidate assessment in recruitment. We offer state-of-the-art psychometric tests (personality and logic assessments), in an easy-to-use and modern platform. We help customers such as Northvolt, SEB, Sinch, Hedvig, Tele2, Scania and Zound industries build their teams in a data-driven and scientifically proven way. Check us out HERE. (https://www.alvalabs.io/)

The role
We are looking for a Product Manager, to be responsible for our key product surface. Our assessment experience. It will be your job, in close collaboration with engineers, designers, analytics, and our Head of Product, to nail the future of our platform. We are looking for a mini CEO to run this part of the product development, and create something fantastic. You will make good use of your customer obsession as well as candidate obsession. You might not be it yet, but in time, you will be an expert in this field, truly understanding what the customer and candidate want and need.

There isn’t going to be a lot of red tape, we rather expect you to come in and tell us how to run things and what to do. We trust you to take the long-term perspective, set a vision, and think long and hard about where to focus rather than writing individual tickets in Jira.

You
We aren’t exactly focused on your background, it isn’t really in our DNA to scan resumes. Much more important, we look for the right person.

You will likely be a fit for us if:

- Your heart beats for problem-solving and everything analytical

- You have a track record of building strategy and winning long-term bets

- You have a couple of years as a PM in a fast-growing company

- Ideally, you have worked with consumer software, with a high number of users



English is our internal language, so no need to speak Swedish. And hey, if you aren’t ticking all the above-mentioned boxes, apply anyway. You might still be the one (wink-wink)!

Why join Alva?
The problem we are solving is not just engaging and interesting (the combination of psychological science and statistics, with a large chunk of candidate experience obsession, what’s not to love?!), but it is also something that has a tremendous impact on both people and businesses. You will have the opportunity to make a real difference.

With 270+ customers, strong YoY growth, a CSAT of 85, and 200 000+ assessed candidates, there is a lot of greatness to build from. We are now entering an exciting phase of our company journey, where Product Lead Growth, together with internationalization, is our main focus. In the role as PM, you will be a cornerstone in making that a success.

One of our strongest assets is our team. We aren’t perfect in any way, but we do know our way around recruitment. You will get the chance to work with a truly outstanding team, representing 15+ different nationalities and a vast diversity of professional backgrounds.

You will get 7 weeks of vacation, stock options, an on-market salary, a generous preventive care benefit, and a few other neat perks. You can read all about our benefits HERE (https://www.notion.so/alvalabs/Benefits-1abeeb8de8004f6ab915f2fced70f057) and our company values HERE (https://www.notion.so/alvalabs/Alva-Values-630a69c6c72642f2b1caab5dab55b953).

The hiring process
Given that we claim to be experts in hiring, you probably wonder what we have in store for you.

- Objective screening with Alva’s tests

- First interview (focusing on who you are)

- Meet and greet with hiring manager

- Second interview

- Case exercise

- Final interview with hiring manager



The interview stage will start in the beginning of January.

Come help us change the world of hiring!

There once was a company that decided to recruit only based on the potential within the individual, not based on fancy titles or employment at dope organizations. They screened individuals without even reading CVs. One candidate that stood out among the crowd was called to an interview. The candidate was extremely nervous. It turned out he had applied for jobs for years and never made it to the interview stage. Why? Because he was 50+ years old and with a foreign background. Anyways, he nailed the interview and got the job. He is now one of their most valued employees.
Alva helps companies like the one in the story do just this. Hire based on potential, not based on background, age, gender or looks. Do you want to join our quest to create a more fair and efficient job market?
The company
Alva Labs offers a SaaS solution that is helping global companies grow their team in a scientific way. Alva has created a unique candidate assessment platform that helps companies build their organizations with the right people in the right place. By combining state-of-the-art psychometrics, data science, and an obsession with candidate experience, Alva provides the needed tool for data-driven talent acquisition.
We are growing 2-3x per year and are in the exciting phase to launch Alva in new markets and changing from a more traditional sales-led approach to a more product-led motion.
The role
As the first Product Marketing Manager at Alva, you will help put the spotlight on our product in our marketing efforts. Focusing on positioning, differentiation and our target audience you will play an instrumental role in growing our revenue. You will work closely with our product squads and product managers to build in-depth knowledge of our platform, users & prospects, and bring that to the surface through sharp campaigns, messaging and sales collateral. When joining Alva, you will be tasked to:
Develop and iterate on our positioning & messaging for our product.
Develop deep knowledge of our product and, more importantly, our customers and target audience. You will dive deep into the world of HR, recruitment and psychometric assessments to make sure our marketing efforts are always aligned with our buyers’ needs and concerns.
Take lead on campaigns and work closely with other contributors in the marketing team to create stellar campaigns, ads and assets.
Partner with Product to plan & execute product launches. You will work closely with the product managers and squads, and be an important link between marketing, sales and product.
Work with our sales team to develop and arm them with sales collateral to help them in sales processes, ultimately helping them close more deals in a shorter amount of time.
Conduct market, competitor and customer research to provide important intelligence to use in crafting messaging and marketing efforts.



You
So who are you then? You are probably already a skilled product marketer, maybe even with the experience of specifically a B2B SaaS product. We think you have a deep knowledge of product marketing and the best practices and are comfortable taking lead on it and building up that function within the marketing team. You know how to shape value propositions and sharp messaging, and how to conduct market research. We also believe you are
Strong communicator, both towards internal stakeholders and to craft compelling marketing messages.
Structured in your approach to work. Used to managing multiple work streams & projects, never missing deadlines or dropping balls.
Love to dig deep to unpack how and why things work the way they do. Never-ending curiosity is a key ingredient here!
Proven track record in product marketing, crafting value propositions and positioning (preferably for B2B SaaS products).
Great at managing stakeholders, working cross-functionally and being a link between different teams within Alva.



Our internal language is English, so no need to speak anything else (but it is always nice to learn swearwords in a new language, so don’t be shy).
Your future colleagues
We are a team of 50 people, representing 16 different nationalities and a wide selection of professional backgrounds. And all of that is absolutely fantastic, but the true beauty is the trust and warmth you will experience. You will most likely never be as supported and have so many brilliant minds to learn from and ask for guidance. To quote our CEO during our last company trip, “It feels like hanging out with a bunch of old friends”.
The marketing team is for now a party of 4ish plus consultants. The -ish comes from the fact that we are in the process of signing the last of the four, and are getting ready to add numbers five and six (that is you, my friend).
If you want to creep out on this (perhaps your future) team, fire away!
Why join Alva?
The problem we are solving is not just engaging and interesting (the combination of psychological science and statistics, with a large chunk of candidate experience obsession, what’s not to love?!), but it is also something that has a tremendous impact on both people and businesses. You will have the opportunity to work with something that truly makes a difference.
With 250+ customers, strong growth, happy users, and 150 000+ assessed candidates, there is a lot of greatness to build from. We are now entering an exciting phase of our company journey, where we are doubling down on new markets and an international expansion. The company and the team have grown a lot in the last couple of months (150% more customers, and 250% more employees during 2021… so far…). And we are just getting started! There will be so many opportunities to grow with us.
Besides, we have flexible work hours, where you can decide for yourself what works best for you. You will get 7 weeks of vacation, an on-market salary, a generous preventive care benefit, and a few other neat perks. You can read all about our benefits here and our company values here.

Offer and happy dancing!

Alva has created a unique candidate assessment platform that helps companies build their organisations with the right people in the right place. By combining state-of-the-art psychometrics, data science, and an obsession with candidate experience, it provides the needed tool for data-driven talent acquisition.

We are growing 2-3x per year and are in the exciting phase to launch Alva in new markets.

The role
We are moving towards several new markets, UK being one of them. This will be your playground!

Our Sales team is a well-oiled machine, where you will work closely with other SDRs and Account Executives. You will be responsible for the initial part of the funnel, making sure to book qualified meetings to ensure a strong pipeline.

As an SDR, you’ll work with our UK Sales team to source new deals through outbound cold calls, developing email sequences, and following up on our growing tranche of inbound leads.

To help you ramp and have success at Alva, you will receive a hands-on onboarding program designed to give you all the tools you need to be successful - including sales training, a UK market playbook and Alva platform education.

You
We don’t necessarily care that much about what you have done before. Maybe you have worked in Sales before, maybe you haven’t. One of our current superstars had never worked in Sales before…. So to be super transparent, if you are the right person (because that is what we care a lot about), we can help you reach your full potential on-site. There is enough structure and collegial support to go around! To enjoy the role, it helps if you cross off some of these characteristics:

- Genuinely enjoy handling stakeholders of all sorts

- Structured

- Communicative

- Goal-oriented (some would call it stubbornness, we just used the fancy CV appropriate term)

- Your English is fluent. No need to be able to speak Swedish for this role!



A weird sense of humour is also always welcomed, but is more of a nice-to-have :)

Your future colleagues
We are a team of 60 people, representing 16 different nationalities and a wide selection of professional backgrounds. And all of that is absolutely fantastic, but the true beauty is the trust and warmth you will experience. You will most likely never be as supported and have so many brilliant minds to learn from and ask for guidance. To quote our CEO during our last company trip, “It feels like hanging out with a bunch of old friends”.

What about the Sales team, you might wonder? We are currently 16 reps in total, divided into three different teams (based on focus markets). Each team consists of both SDRs and Account Executives to secure that we close the feedback loop and enable great success as a team.

Setting: the recruitment processes all over the world

Characters: all candidates trying to show how they are relevant for a job, and all recruiters trying to find out who to hire

Conflict: almost half of all new hires fail (don’t meet expectations or quit), at the same time as companies are missing out on great talent (candidates are systematically being discriminated against based on age, gender, nationality, ethnicity, just to name a few)

Resolution: Alva to the rescue! With objective recruitment, Alva enables accurate and fair assessment of candidates. The right candidates get the job, without discrimination!

We need a content writer! Do you want to come write our stories?

The company
Alva Labs offers a SaaS solution to help global companies grow their teams in a scientific way. Alva has created a unique candidate assessment platform that helps companies build their organisations with the right people in the right place, completely free from bias and subjectivity. By combining state-of-the-art psychometrics, data science, and an obsession with candidate experience, it provides the needed tool for data-driven talent acquisition.

We are growing 2-3X per year and are in the exciting phase of launching Alva in new markets.

The role
Your job will be to, in close collaboration with the rest of the marketing team and some of our internal thought leaders (such as ?? Kajsa (https://www.linkedin.com/in/kajsaasplund/)??, ?? Morgan (https://www.linkedin.com/in/morganpihl/)??, ?? Hira (https://www.linkedin.com/in/hira-wasif/)??, ?? Linnea (https://www.linkedin.com/in/linneabywall/)??, and ?? Malcolm (https://www.linkedin.com/in/malcolmburenstamlinder/)??), be the content machine at Alva. By combining internal and external talk and research, you will ensure there is always relevant content to publish across our different channels.

You will create blog posts, e-books, newsletters, one-pagers, and whitepapers to enable lead generation and an engaged audience. You will prioritize what should be of focus and through that, build out the content calendar.

You
Given what we do, we aren’t too concerned about your background. The foundation for a successful hire and match lies within your persona, rather than your CV. Perhaps you have a background in journalism, freelancing, or in-house content creation. Some sort of track record in professional content work will likely set you up for early success. But more importantly, we believe you are a task-oriented self-starter. A team player that takes ownership and has some project management skills. And obviously a skilled writer.

All content will be in English, so a high proficiency level will be needed. No need to speak Swedish, though!

Your future colleagues
We are a team of 50+ people, representing 16 different nationalities and a wide selection of professional backgrounds. And all of that is absolutely fantastic, but the true beauty is the trust and warmth you will experience. You will be supported and have so many brilliant minds to learn from and ask for guidance. To quote our CEO during our last company trip, “It feels like hanging out with a bunch of old friends”.

And the marketing team? Well, it is expanding FAST right now. Our Head of Marketing and Content Lead are, together with freelancers, holding the fort. But with an art director, a digital marketer, a social media marketer, and a partnerships person on their way in, this is just the right time to join!

Executive Assistant/Coordinator to Alva Labs
There are two types of travelers. The one that packs a bag and jumps on a train to see where the road will take them. And then there is the one that books things in advance, that has a schedule for each day of the trip, and that always arrives an hour early to the train station to make sure to be on time (with prepared snack bags for the entire trip).

The first one might sound adventurous and romantic, but we want to hire the second one.

So if the description resonates with you and you want to work as an Executive Assistant in the most fantastic team, then schedule a time slot for applying for your next job! (Or go out of your comfort zone and don’t schedule it, just do it right away, it will take you just a minute).

The company
Alva Labs is an HR tech scale-up, located in Stockholm. We offer a SaaS solution that is helping global companies grow their team in a scientific way. Alva has created a unique candidate assessment platform that helps companies build their organizations with the right people in the right place. By combining state-of-the-art psychology and data science it provides the needed tool for data-driven talent acquisition.

We are growing 2-3x per year and are in the exciting phase to launch Alva in new markets.

The role
In the role of Executive Assistant, you will work closely with Alva’s management team and CEO (https://www.linkedin.com/in/malcolmburenstamlinder/). You will organize all-hands, mgmt team meetings, and other department key meetings, as well as helping out in onboarding of new employees. You will be an expert in the Alva operating system and aid in business planning. Understanding the organization and ensuring cross-functional collaboration will be key to success. Finally, you will manage the administrative tasks related to our office.

Honestly, you will pretty much run the company…

You
Besides being the safer choice if you want to your travel plans to work out, we believe you are:

- Structured & organized
- Proactive
- Service-minded


We care a lot more about who you are as a person compared to what you have done before. If you have had a similar role before, great! If you haven’t, that is fine too. What is important is that you understand the operation of a growing business and know what great looks like in this role!

We just want you to be the right person and for you to love your job!

???? Candidates over 40 are half as likely to get a job offer compared to younger applicants if the company knows their age.

???? When women hide their gender in a job application they receive the same amount of callbacks as male applicants with the same level of experience. But when they declare their gender, they get 30% fewer callbacks.

People with an Arabic-sounding name are 60% less likely to get callbacks to interviews, regardless of their professional background.

Something is seriously wrong with hiring, and the world needs to know about it! Are you a social media genius that can help us change how the world views talent, once and for all? Then continue reading!

The company
Alva Labs offers a SaaS solution to help global companies grow their team in a scientific way. Alva has created a unique candidate assessment platform that helps companies build their organisations with the right people in the right place, completely free from bias and subjectivity. By combining state-of-the-art psychometrics, data science, and an obsession with candidate experience, it provides the needed tool for data-driven talent acquisition.

We are growing 2-3X per year and are in the exciting phase of launching Alva in new markets.

The role
Let’s then take a look at a typical work week in the life of a Social Media Manager at Alva:

Monday ? Together with the marketing team, you sync the social media calendar and make sure you’re on top of everything that will be posted this week. You and your fellow marketeers set out a plan for how to crack the next market Alva wants to focus on.

Tuesday ? Start your day with a breakfast buffet at the office! Then you help one of our many influencers with Linkedin content, as well as analyzing data from the past week and ensuring a broader reach and higher conversion rates.

Wednesday ? Social selling workshop with the sales team. Time to make sure they all execute on your strategic plans!

Thursday? Working session together with our Art Director to create more content. Perhaps a lunch walk during the weekly digital Lunch n Learn session?

Friday ? Time to wrap up the week before office AW! You might do some repurposing from our popular digital training sessions or webinars and make sure our audience never misses a learning opportunity.

You
We are looking for a social person who finds it easy to connect across teams, who can see opportunities and react in a timely manner. You are organized and a big-time multitasker. To a large extent, you are a digital native (and comfortable working in English, given that is our internal and external language).

If you have experience working professionally with social marketing that might help you early on of course, but hey, as long as you are the right one for us, we don’t really mind a weird background ????

Your future colleagues
We are a team of 50+ people, representing 16 different nationalities and a wide selection of professional backgrounds. And all of that is absolutely fantastic, but the true beauty is the trust and warmth you will experience. You will be fully supported and have so many brilliant minds to learn from and ask for guidance. To quote our CEO during our last company trip, “It feels like hanging out with a bunch of old friends”.

If you want to creep out on this (perhaps your future) team (https://www.notion.so/alvalabs/People-9b32574c8b3747759680da1dbda59b35), fire away!

Why join Alva?
The problem we are solving is not just engaging and interesting (the combination of psychological science and statistics, with a large chunk of candidate experience obsession, what’s not to love?), but it is also something that has a tremendous impact on both people and businesses. You will have the opportunity to work with something that truly makes a difference.

With 250+ customers, strong growth, happy users, and 160,000+ assessed candidates, there is a lot of greatness to build on. We are now entering an exciting phase of our company journey, where we are doubling down on new markets and an international expansion. The company and the team have grown a lot in the last couple of months (150% more customers, and 250% more employees during 2021, so far…). And we are just getting started! There will be so many more opportunities to come.

What’s more - we have flexible work hours, where you can decide for yourself what works best for you. You will get seven weeks of vacation, an on-market salary, a generous preventive care benefit, and a few other neat perks. You can read all about our benefits here (https://www.notion.so/alvalabs/Benefits-1abeeb8de8004f6ab915f2fced70f057) and our company values here (https://www.notion.so/alvalabs/Alva-Values-630a69c6c72642f2b1caab5dab55b953).

1. Objective screening with Alva’s tests

Product Marketing Manager to Alva Labs
There once was a company that decided to recruit only based on the potential within the individual, not based on fancy titles or employment at dope organizations. They screened individuals without even reading CVs. One candidate that stood out among the crowd was called to an interview. The candidate was extremely nervous. It turned out he had applied for jobs for years and never made it to the interview stage. Why? Because he was 50+ years old and with a foreign background. Anyways, he nailed the interview and got the job. He is now one of their most valued employees.

Alva helps companies like the one in the story do just this. Hire based on potential, not based on background, age, gender or looks. Do you want to join our quest to create a more fair and efficient job market?



The company
Alva Labs offers a SaaS solution that is helping global companies grow their team in a scientific way. Alva has created a unique candidate assessment platform that helps companies build their organizations with the right people in the right place. By combining state-of-the-art psychometrics, data science, and an obsession with candidate experience, Alva provides the needed tool for data-driven talent acquisition.

We are growing 2-3x per year and are in the exciting phase to launch Alva in new markets and changing from a more traditional sales-led approach to a more product-led motion.

The role
As the first Product Marketing Manager at Alva, you will help put the spotlight on our product in our marketing efforts. Focusing on positioning, differentiation and our target audience you will play an instrumental role in growing our revenue. You will work closely with our product squads and product managers to build in-depth knowledge of our platform, users & prospects, and bring that to the surface through sharp campaigns, messaging and sales collateral. When joining Alva, you will be tasked to:

- Develop and iterate on our positioning & messaging for our product.
- Develop deep knowledge of our product and, more importantly, our customers and target audience. You will dive deep into the world of HR, recruitment and psychometric assessments to make sure our marketing efforts are always aligned with our buyers’ needs and concerns.
- Take lead on campaigns and work closely with other contributors in the marketing team to create stellar campaigns, ads and assets.
- Partner with Product to plan & execute product launches. You will work closely with the product managers and squads, and be an important link between marketing, sales and product.
- Work with our sales team to develop and arm them with sales collateral to help them in sales processes, ultimately helping them close more deals in a shorter amount of time.
- Conduct market, competitor and customer research to provide important intelligence to use in crafting messaging and marketing efforts.


You
So who are you then? You are probably already a skilled product marketer, maybe even with the experience of specifically a B2B SaaS product. We think you have a deep knowledge of product marketing and the best practices and are comfortable taking lead on it and building up that function within the marketing team. You know how to shape value propositions and sharp messaging, and how to conduct market research. We also believe you are

- Strong communicator, both towards internal stakeholders and to craft compelling marketing messages.
- Structured in your approach to work. Used to managing multiple work streams & projects, never missing deadlines or dropping balls.
- Love to dig deep to unpack how and why things work the way they do. Never-ending curiosity is a key ingredient here!
- Proven track record in product marketing, crafting value propositions and positioning (preferably for B2B SaaS products).
- Great at managing stakeholders, working cross-functionally and being a link between different teams within Alva.


Our internal language is English, so no need to speak anything else (but it is always nice to learn swearwords in a new language, so don’t be shy).

Your future colleagues
We are a team of 50 people, representing 16 different nationalities and a wide selection of professional backgrounds. And all of that is absolutely fantastic, but the true beauty is the trust and warmth you will experience. You will most likely never be as supported and have so many brilliant minds to learn from and ask for guidance. To quote our CEO during our last company trip, “It feels like hanging out with a bunch of old friends”.

The marketing team is for now a party of 4ish plus consultants. The -ish comes from the fact that we are in the process of signing the last of the four, and are getting ready to add numbers five and six (that is you, my friend).

If you want to creep out on this (perhaps your future) team (https://www.notion.so/alvalabs/People-9b32574c8b3747759680da1dbda59b35), fire away!

Michael Scott of Dunder Mifflin might not be very fond of HR. Or to put it in his own words; “Every time I try to do something fun or exciting, you [Toby from HR] might it not that way. I hate so much about the things you choose to be.”

We think Michael is wrong. Perhaps not about Toby interfering with his so-called fun, but vastly wrong when it comes to the value of HR. In our mind, HR is everything. And out of all the important stuff HR does, hiring is THE most important thing. There are plenty of ways to impact performance, but none are as powerful as recruiting the right person to the right role.

Are you up for the joyride of working as a talent acquisition manager at a company that lives and breathes recruitment? Then join Alva’s HR crew and help us continue to build our fantastic organization!

Alva Labs offers a SaaS solution that is helping global companies grow their team in a scientific way. Alva has created a unique candidate assessment platform that helps companies build their organizations with the right people in the right place. By combining state-of-the-art psychometrics, data science, and an obsession with candidate experience, it provides the needed tool for data-driven talent acquisition.

We are growing 2-3x per year and are in the exciting phase to launch Alva in new markets.

The role
As a TA at Alva you will be in charge of the full recruitment cycle. From writing job descriptions, sourcing, interviewing, building work sample cases together with the hiring manager, and being ready to dance the (for now non-official) “we-just-signed-a-great-new-hire-dance”. You will be hiring for all types of roles. We are tech-heavy but have a 50:50 ratio between commercial and tech.

We are still early days and there is a lot that needs to be built up within HR, so from time to time, we will want to borrow your head to explore everything related to talent management (attracting, selecting, developing, keeping, you name it). Plus, given that pretty much everything at Alva is about improving the way the world hires, you will get to work with some major recruitment nerds.

You
If you know us, you know we aren’t big on background. We focus more on the person. Sure, you will likely hit the ground running if you have worked with recruitment or HR before, but don’t stress over that. We will teach you all of our magic tricks! Personality-wise then? Well, we believe you will cross of some of the characteristics on this list:

- Structure & order is your middle name
- You enjoy meeting and interacting with new people
- Change isn’t always easy, but you embrace it like the true HR hero you are
- You are funny (well this one isn’t exactly linked to the job, but we have so much fun working together and would love to have a third musketeer to join or giggle fests)


Swedish isn’t a requirement for the role, our internal language is English and we have a lot of international candidates.

Your future colleagues
We are a team of 50 people, representing 16 different nationalities and a wide selection of professional backgrounds. And all of that is absolutely fantastic, but the true beauty is the trust and warmth you will experience. You will most likely never be as supported and have so many brilliant minds to learn from and ask for guidance. To quote our CEO during our last company trip, “It feels like hanging out with a bunch of old friends”.

What about the HR team, you might wonder? We thought you would never ask!! It is petite, but grand when it comes to result, heart and humor. Together with Minya (https://www.linkedin.com/in/minya-segercrantz-b89176107/) and Linnea (https://www.linkedin.com/in/linneabywall/), you will do great things!!

You will have the opportunity to work with something that truly makes a difference.

Our product is highly appreciated by our users and has made a tremendous impact on several HR and TA teams. Talent acquisition is our heart and soul, working as a recruiter here isn’t just working as a recruiter for any fast-growing tech scale-up. It is to be at the center of everything we do.

The result? A hiring scene that discriminates based on (but not limited to) gender, age, and ethnicity. Not because recruiters are doing a poor job, but because the wrong tools and processes are used.

Alva can change this! We are helping our 250+ local and global customers to change how to hire, change how to view talent, change how to find the hidden gems. Our first Key Account Manager position, sitting within the Customer Success team, is both an influential and a crucial hire for us. It represents a meaningful step on our mission to work even more strategically with our customers to deliver commercial outcomes - allowing Alva to drive growth not just through winning new business but by affecting positive NRR (Net Revenue Retention) with current customers.

Are you interested in making recruitment a fairer and better place? We’d love to hear from you!



The company
Alva Labs offers a SaaS solution that is helping global companies grow their team in a scientific way. Alva has created a unique candidate assessment platform that helps companies build their organizations with the right people in the right place. By combining state-of-the-art psychology, data science, and an obsession with candidate experience, it provides the needed tool for data-driven talent acquisition.

We are growing 2-3x per year and are at the exciting point of launching Alva in new markets. Currently, we are focussing on international expansion into new markets and making the next big product bet that will revolutionize how the world views talent.

The role


- Operating as a commercially-focussed specialist within the Customer Success team, you will work closely with CSMs to deliver commercial outcomes - ranging from securing challenging renewals to winning juicy referrals to delivering exciting upsells





- As such, your KPIs will be highly commercial. Your bread and butter will be revenue retention and you will also be given growth targets to own



- To have success in the role, you’ll need to work closely with the rest of the CS to identify opportunities across the customer base (there’s no shortage!) and will be expected to take responsibility for building and implementing strategies to deliver against these opportunities



- A relationship-heavy position, you’ll spend much of your time working with stakeholders - internal and external - to hit your targets and KPIs. You’ll be as comfortable building relationships on Zoom as in person



- While Nordics-centric today, we’re expanding into new markets. You’ll work across a diverse portfolio of customers traversing sectors, size and markets



- You’ll be expected to upskill on how our product works, the problem we solve and learn the language of HR and TAM senior executives to build trust and secure Alva buy-in



- It’s a great time to join the Customer Success fold. As the department matures, we’re building out meaningful and exciting processes that help us and our customers to work better. You’ll spend a chunk of your time collaborating with your Alva teammates to drive this change



You

This is a new and immensely exciting position at Alva. The perfect candidate will embrace this change and will thrive in a highly target-driven setting. Our binding philosophy at Alva is that we believe in finding the right person, rather than the right CV. That said, if you already have a background in commercially-focussed Customer Success or are looking to make the switch from Sales - that’s always very welcome. We’re proud to represent sixteen (and counting!) nationalities at Alva and - given our ambitious expansion plans - written and verbal confidence in English is a must. If this sounds like you and you’re up for the challenge of being a commercial leader in Customer Success, we’re dying to hear from you!

Your future colleagues
We are a team of 50+ people, representing 16 different nationalities and a wide selection of professional backgrounds. And all of that is absolutely fantastic, but the true beauty is the trust and warmth you will experience. You will most likely never be as supported and have so many brilliant minds to learn from and ask for guidance. To quote our CEO during our last company trip, “It feels like hanging out with a bunch of old friends”.

What about the Customer Success team, you might wonder? Well, let me tell you there was never a more lovely and inspirational bunch of brilliant minds. With deep knowledge and experience, a large cup of service-mindedness, and a pinch of laughter, they are the perfect recipe for both strong foundation-setting with customers and, ultimately, high customer satisfaction.

With 250+ customers, strong growth, happy users, and 160 000+ assessed candidates, there is a lot of greatness to build on.

Customer Success Manager to Alva Labs
If Marty McFly and Doc would have set the time-traveling DeLorean to 2021 they would have found a world where hoverboards haven’t quite exploded on the market (instead they would have found electric scooters, digital breakout rooms, and a metaverse). However, they would have found a hiring scene that hasn’t changed much from the 80s. Women still struggle (they need to send in 30% more applications than males), people of color still struggle (they need to send in 50% more applications than Caucasians), and non-natives still struggle (people with Arabic sounding names are 60% less likely to get a call back to an interview).

Imagine if they set the DeLorean just a few years ahead. Imagine if they came to a future where all candidates were assessed in the same way. Where all are seen for their potential and for who they are, not just for their gender, age, nationality, ethnicity, or other non-relevant factors. Alva is on the journey to create that world.

We are now looking to add another Customer Success Manager to the team, to help us and our customers move towards a brighter hiring future. And who knows, we might just build a hoverboard too.



The company
Alva Labs offers a SaaS solution that is helping global companies grow their team in a scientific way. Alva has created a unique candidate assessment platform that helps companies build their organisations with the right people in the right place. By combining state-of-the-art psychometrics, data science, and an obsession with candidate experience, it provides the needed tool for data-driven talent acquisition.

We are growing 2-3X per year and are in the exciting phase to launch Alva in new markets. Currently, we are focussing on international expansion into new markets and making the next big product bet that will revolutionise how the world views talent.

The role
- This is a highly commercial position. We measure success not just in terms of logo and revenue retention but revenue growth
- You’ll be given stretching expansion targets and will be expected to take responsibility for building and implementing strategies to deliver growth across existing customers
- You will cultivate and develop relationships with decision makers and key stakeholders - you’ll be tasked with ensuring Alva is seen as more than just a software vendor but instead as a strategic recruitment partner
- Comfortable interacting with stakeholders at all levels, you should profoundly understanding your customers’ objectives, challenges, and expectations
- You’ll work fluidly and will embrace driving commercially important initiatives to benefit our aggressive growth targets
- While Nordics-centric today, we’re expanding into new markets. You’ll have a diverse portfolio of customers traversing sectors, size and markets
- Fight injustice in recruitment alongside our industry category experts
- It’s a great time to join the Customer Success fold. As the department matures, we’re building out meaningful and exciting processes that help us and our customers to work better. You’ll spend a chunk of your time collaborating with your Alva teammates to drive this change


You
We believe in finding the right person, rather than the right CV. That said, if you already have a background in commercially-focussed Customer Success or are looking to make the switch from Account Management / Sales - that’s always very welcome. There’s no shortage of in-house thought leadership around psychometrics and tests, a background in these areas is not a prerequisite but we’ll expect you to handle and deliver commercial outcomes with customers from the get go. We’re proud to represent sixteen (and counting!) nationalities at Alva and - given our ambitious expansion plans - written and verbal fluency in English is a must. Lastly, while not expected, experience building a time-travelling DeLorean is bound to catch the eye!

Your future colleagues
We are a team of 50+ people, representing 16 different nationalities and a wide selection of professional backgrounds. And all of that is absolutely fantastic, but the true beauty is the trust and warmth you will experience. You will most likely never be as supported and have so many brilliant minds to learn from and ask for guidance. To quote our CEO during our last company trip, “It feels like hanging out with a bunch of old friends”.

What about the Customer Success team, you might wonder? Well, let me tell you there was never a more lovely bunch of brilliant minds.

Why join Alva?
The problem we are solving is not just engaging and interesting (the combination of psychological science and statistics, with a large chunk of candidate experience obsession, what’s not to love?), but it is also something that has a tremendous impact on both people and businesses. You will have the opportunity to work with something that truly makes a difference.

With 250+ customers, strong growth, happy users, and 160 000+ assessed candidates, there is a lot of greatness to build on. We are now entering an exciting phase of our company journey, where we are doubling down on new markets and an international expansion. The company and the team have grown a lot in the last couple of months (150% more customers, and 250% more employees during 2021, so far…). And we are just getting started! There will be so many more opportunities to come.

What’s more - we have flexible work hours, where you can decide for yourself what works best for you. You will get seven weeks of vacation, an on-market salary, a generous preventive care benefit, and a few other neat perks. You can read all about our benefits here (https://www.notion.so/alvalabs/Benefits-1abeeb8de8004f6ab915f2fced70f057) and our company values here (https://www.notion.so/alvalabs/Alva-Values-630a69c6c72642f2b1caab5dab55b953).

Account Executive to Alva Labs
If there was a zombie apocalypse, are you the person that:

1 Crawl up in a corner and wait for death

X Try to fight off the zombies

2 Manage to talk your way out of being eaten, thanks to your excellent persuasive skills

Once the zombies have taken over, are you the person that:

1 Never mind, you were the first one to be eaten

X Spend time planning revenge in your secret, underground weapon storage

2 Have turned into a highly appreciated friend and trusted advisor to the zombies, thanks to your natural stakeholder management skills

If you answered 2 to the majority of the questions, then you might be our next Account Executive!!



The company
Alva Labs offers a SaaS solution that is helping global companies grow their team in a scientific way. Alva has created a unique candidate assessment platform that helps companies build their organizations with the right people in the right place. By combining state-of-the-art psychometrics, data science, and an obsession with candidate experience, it provides the needed tool for data-driven talent acquisition.

We are building a rocketship, currently growing 2-3 X per year. With 250+ customers, strong growth, happy users, and 150 000+ assessed candidates, there is a lot of greatness to build from. We are now entering an exciting phase of our company journey, where we are doubling down on new markets and an international expansion. The company and the team have grown a lot in the last couple of months (150% more customers, and 250% more employees during 2021… so far…). And we are just getting started!

The role
Sales at Alva means a lot of things. You will be part of a tight team, collaborating with other account executives, but also with SDRs that provide you with qualified meetings, and CSMs that take over the customer once a deal is signed. We have come a long way when it comes to playbook, ICP and offering, but one is never done, right?

Your responsibilities will consist of everything from running meetings, driving the sales process, building relationships with key stakeholders, and improving the process together with your coworkers and team lead.

Want to see more of what problem we are solving and our pitch? Take a look HERE (https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=yaJbyAbYwDI&ab_channel=AlvaLabs).

You
When it comes to fighting zombies and doing sales, your experiences might help you, but it will be who you are as an individual that will get you places. It is great if you have experience of working with sales in B2B, or just stakeholder management, but it is not necessary. Our team today consists of people from a wide of different backgrounds, from finance, BioMed, recruiting, film industry, you name it! The things they have in common are that they are committed to being better every day and driven by truly understanding how we can help the customer. If you are the right person for us, we promise to make a zombie fighter.. uhm… sales rep out of you! We are looking for someone with the following qualities:

- Strong relationship builder
- Structured and goal-oriented
- A great teammate, that will come and continue building our fantastic team


Your future colleagues
We are a team of 50 people, representing 16 different nationalities and a wide selection of professional backgrounds. And all of that is absolutely fantastic, but the true beauty is the trust and warmth you will experience. You will most likely never be as supported and have so many brilliant minds to learn from and ask for guidance. To quote our CEO during our last company trip, “It feels like hanging out with a bunch of old friends”.

What about the sales team, you might wonder? We are currently 16 reps in total, divided into three different teams (based on focus markets). Each team consists of both SDRs and Account Executives to secure that we close the feedback loop and enable great success as a team.

If you want to creep out on this (perhaps your future) team (https://www.notion.so/alvalabs/People-9b32574c8b3747759680da1dbda59b35), fire away!

Why join Alva?
The problem we are solving is not just engaging and interesting (the combination of psychological science and statistics, with a large chunk of candidate experience obsession, what’s not to love?!), but it is also something that has a tremendous impact on both people and businesses. You will have the opportunity to work with something that truly makes a difference.

Given the fast growth and expansion face, there will be several opportunities to grow with us. New roles, new markets, new challenges, you will be the one setting the limits. Who knows? Perhaps you want to work a period abroad and help us penetrate a new market?

Besides, we have flexible work hours, where you can decide for yourself what works best for you. You will get 7 weeks of vacation, an on-market salary, a generous preventive care benefit, and a few other neat perks. You can read all about our benefits here (https://www.notion.so/alvalabs/Benefits-1abeeb8de8004f6ab915f2fced70f057) and our company values here (https://www.notion.so/alvalabs/Alva-Values-630a69c6c72642f2b1caab5dab55b953).

All these aspects are need-to-haves, right? But what about the nice-to-haves, the aspects that actually create the culture and turn Alva into a great place to work? We are an organization that values input and feedback more than hierarchy. We dare you to find a workplace that has stronger collegial support than us, and we do a lot of fun stuff together. How does a virtual trip to Barcelona sound (we had to get creative during the pandemic…)? Or padel tournament? Or tree-top climbing? Or ice skates during lunch breaks? Or breakfast buffet every Tuesday? Dinners? Gingerbread house competitions? The list goes on…

The hiring process
Given that we claim to be experts in hiring, you probably wonder what we have in store for you.

- Objective screening with Alva’s tests
- First interview (focusing on who you are)
- Case survey (a short survey where you get to explain in writing how you have tackled sales-related situations in the past)
- Second interview with hiring manager
- Case exercise
- Offer and toasts in bubbles!!
Come help us change the world of hiring!

You need more relevant experience”.

Others were more qualified than you”.

Thanks for your application, but we have moved forward with other candidates”.

Job hunting can be rough, especially if you have a gap in your CV, if you have a foreign name, or simply if you want to change careers. Did you know that women have to send in 30% more applications than men, and people of colour have to send in 50% more applications than white people to get a job interview - because of bias? There is an unfair and inefficient job market out there.

At Alva, we are trying to build a world where everyone gets the same fair chance to show their capability. Where the market efficiently can match individuals with opportunities. We are striving to create a fair and efficient job market. Nothing less.

And now we need you to come to help us do that!

The company
Alva Labs offers a SaaS (Software-as-a-service) solution that is helping global companies grow their team in a fair, efficient and science-backed way. By combining leading psychology, data science, and an obsession with candidate experience, our platform helps teams hire in a new way.

We are currently in a very exciting phase where we are growing our revenue super fast (2-3x per year) and launching in new markets. We are building cool stuff, making a real impact for our customers and candidates, and we have fun together while doing it.

The role
We are looking for a designer that can take lead on everything graphic and design-y. You will produce a wide variety of digital assets, from blog graphics, ads, and slides to videos and animations. Perhaps even pulling out a camera for some photos every now and then. We don’t expect you to be an expert guru wizard in every single discipline of graphic design (that’s impossible), but we believe you have a solid track record in multiple areas of graphic design. You will of course have support and collaboration with the rest of the marketing team, and for more demanding productions it’s up to you to secure the necessary external resources (freelancers/agencies) to get us where we need to be. Here’s a glimpse of what you would spend your days on:

- Design and produce performance marketing assets for paid media channels, primarily LinkedIn and Facebook ads.
- Produce assets for a variety of online and offline formats - and research new ones.
- Work proactively together with the team to learn & iterate on what type of content works, taking a strategic perspective on our visual identity & digital assets.
- Understand and design for campaigns throughout the marketing funnel, from awareness to acquisition to conversion to retargeting.
- Produce additional designs and content for other marketing team needs, such as the website, blog, infographics, illustrations, videos, etc.
- Own your production pipeline by managing your projects and priorities and maintaining appropriate communication with all stakeholders.


We are still early days, so you will definitely be able to put your mark on our brand and how we work, but there is also a lot already in place that you can use. If you are curious about how the Alva brand looks and feels, take a look at our visual identity (https://alvalabs.github.io/brand/) and perhaps this case video with SEB (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Y56oMupAiI).

You
Perhaps you have worked in-house or at an agency before, that’s not super important. As long as you are passionate about aesthetics and design, with a “doer” attitude, you will fit right in. We believe you already have a strong & diverse portfolio of design work. We would be extra happy if you have an understanding and experience of digital marketing, as well as experience of video production. Our internal language is English, so there is no need to be able to speak Swedish. We do however care deeply about who YOU are. We believe that you:

- Are prestigeless
- Are a self-starter
- Are organized and always finds a way
- Can balance details and quality with shipping stuff fast


Your future colleagues
We are a team of 50 people, representing 16 different nationalities and a wide selection of professional backgrounds. And all of that is absolutely fantastic, but the true beauty is the trust and warmth you will experience. You will most likely never be as supported and have so many brilliant minds to learn from and ask for guidance. To quote our CEO during our last company trip, “It feels like hanging out with a bunch of old friends”.

What about the marketing team, you might wonder? We are currently 3 full-time employees, with an additional 3-5 freelancers and people from other Alva teams working with us part-time.

If you want to creep out on this (perhaps your future) team (https://www.notion.so/alvalabs/People-9b32574c8b3747759680da1dbda59b35), fire away!

The problem we are solving is not just engaging and interesting (the combination of psychological science and statistics, with a large chunk of candidate experience obsession, what’s not to love?!), but it is also something that has a tremendous impact on both people and businesses. You will have the opportunity to work with something that truly makes a difference.

With 250+ customers, strong YoY (Year over Year) growth, a CSAT of 85, and 150 000+ assessed candidates, there is a lot of greatness to build from. We are now entering an exciting phase of our company journey, where scaling our growth, together with internationalization, is our main focus. In the role of art director, you will play a key role in spreading our message across the world and building our brand.

You will get 7 weeks of vacation, an on-market salary, a generous preventive care benefit, and a few other neat perks. You can read all about our benefits here (https://www.notion.so/alvalabs/Benefits-1abeeb8de8004f6ab915f2fced70f057) and our company values here (https://www.notion.so/alvalabs/Alva-Values-630a69c6c72642f2b1caab5dab55b953).

The hiring process
Given that we claim to be experts in hiring, you probably wonder what we have in store for you.

- Apply by answering a few questions
- Take Alva’s assessment (and thereby skip the old-fashion CV and cover letter process)
- First round of interviews with in-house recruiter (targeting who you are as a person)
- Short survey about your previous work and a sneaky inside chat with a future close coworker
- Portfolio review and chat with hiring manager
- Case

Sales Development Representative till Alva Labs
Låt oss berätta en liten historia. En gång fanns det en tjej som flyttade till Sverige från Pakistan. Hon hade en bra utbildning på masternivå, men ingen arbetslivserfarenhet från den svenska arbetsmarknaden. Hon började ansöka om jobb, men fick avslag. Hon sökte fler jobb, fick fler avslag. Och denna fruktansvärda pingismatch fortsatte under en lång tid. Trots att hon hade så mycket att erbjuda, fick hon aldrig ens chansen att visa det. För det mesta fick hon inte ens gå på en intervju. Hon fick rådet att “byta ut sitt efternamn mot ett mer svenskklingande namn”, eftersom det är så svårt att få ett jobb med ett utländskt namn. Efter många, långa månader i ett grått Sverige, hittade hon ett företag som anställde med hjälp av objektiva metoder. Med hjälp av arbetspsykologiska tester, för att vara exakt. För första gången fick hon samma möjligheter som alla andra kandidater att visa vad hon gick för. Hon fick jobbet! Och hur gick det sen då? Idag är hon en av de mest uppskattade kollegorna, både baserat på sin prestation och sin person. Åh, och förresten, det kan vara din blivande kollega eftersom hon jobbar på Alva Labs.

På Alva jobbar vi hårt för att skapa lyckliga slut för fler kandidater över hela världen. Att söka jobb borde inte vara så svårt som det är idag. Kom och hjälp oss förändra hur världen ser på talang!



Företaget
Alva Labs erbjuder en SaaS-lösning som hjälper lokala och globala bolag växa sina team på ett vetenskapligt sätt. Alva har skapat en unik kandidatutvärderingsplattform som hjälper bolag identifiera rätt person, på rätt plats. Genom att kombinera förstklassig psykometri (psykologi & statistik), data science och en besatthet av kandidatupplevelse, har vi skapat det välbehövliga verktyget för datadriven rekrytering.

Vi växer 2-3x per år och är just nu inne i en spännande fas att lansera Alva på nya marknader.

Rollen
Vårt säljteam är en väloljad maskin där du kommer jobba nära andra SDRs samt Account Executives. Du kommer att vara ansvarig för den inledande delen av säljprocessen genom bokning av kvalificerade möten för att säkerställa en stark fortsatt pipeline. Genom att använda både rätt och moderna verktyg och arbetssätt kommer det vara enkelt att identifiera prospekt och komma i kontakt med dem genom.

Du
Vi bryr oss inte jättemycket om vad du har gjort innan. Kanske har du arbetat med försäljning innan, kanske har du inte det. En av våra nuvarande superstjärnor kommer från en adminroll inom rekrytering, och hon både älskar sitt jobb och krossar alla tidigare rekord :) Så för att vara supertransparent, om du är rätt person för oss (för just det bryr vi oss väldigt mycket om), så kan vi hjälpa dig att nå din fulla potential väl på plats. Det finns tillräckligt med struktur och kollegialt stöd så det räcker och blir över. Vi tror att du checkar av några av följande boxar:

- Genuint uppskattar stakeholder management av alla slag
- Strukturerad
- Kommunikativ
- Målinriktad (vissa skulle kalla det för envis, vi använde bara en fisförnäm CV-term…)


Udda sinne för humor är alltid välkommet. Men antar att det är mer av en nice-to-have…

Dina blivande kollegor
Vi är ett team på 50 glada. Tillsammans representerar vi 16 olika nationaliteter och en stor spridning av yrkesbakgrunder. Allt det där är fantastiskt, men det som verkligen gör Alva unikt är den tillit och värme som finns mellan kollegor. Vi vågar påstå att du aldrig kommer känna dig så stöttad eller ha så många grymma människor att lära ifrån och fråga. För att citera vår VD under vår senaste bolagsresa, “det känns som att hänga med ett gäng gamla kompisar”.

Och då kanske du undrar hur det ser ut i säljteamet? Vi är totalt 16 anställda, uppdelade i tre mindre team (inriktade på olika marknader). Varje team består av både SDRs och Account Executives, för att säkra en tight feedback-loop och möjliggöra framgång för teamet.

Ifall du vill creep-a på vårt (kanske snart ditt!?) team (https://www.notion.so/alvalabs/People-9b32574c8b3747759680da1dbda59b35), kör på!

Varför börja på Alva?
Problemområdet vi jobbar för att lösa är inte bara engagerande och intressant (kombinationen av psykologi och statistik, tillsammans med kandidatupplevelse, vem blir inte pirrig i magen!?), men det är också något som har en enorm inverkan på både människor och organisationer. Du kommer att få jobba med något som skapar skillnad, varje dag.

Med 250+ kunder, stark tillväxt, nöjda användare och nästan 200 000 bedömda kandidater så finns det mycket bra att bygga från. Men vi är inte klara! Vi går nu in i en spännande ny del av vår resa, där vi fokuserar på nya marknader och internationell expansion. Bolaget och teamet har vuxit mycket under den senaste tiden (150% fler kunder och 250% fler anställda under 2021… hittills…). Möjligheterna kommer vara nästintill obegränsade om du vill komma och växa med oss. Kanske kan vi så småningom locka med en ledarroll eller en period utomlands? Om du vill, förstås.

Dessutom så har vi flexibla arbetstider, du väljer hur och var du arbetar bäst. Du får sju (!) veckors semester, en marknadsmässig lön, generöst friskvårdsbidrag och en rad andra fiffiga förmåner. Då kan läsa om våra förmåner HÄR (https://www.notion.so/alvalabs/Benefits-1abeeb8de8004f6ab915f2fced70f057) och bolagets värderingar HÄR (https://www.notion.so/alvalabs/Alva-Values-630a69c6c72642f2b1caab5dab55b953).

Rekryteringsprocessen
Givet att vi utger oss för att våra experter på rekrytering så kanske du undrar vad vi kokat ihop åt dig.

- Objektiv screening med Alvas tester
- Första intervju (här fokuserar vi på vem du är)
- Case survey (en kort enkät där du får svara på frågor och berätta om din erfarenhet sedan tidigare)
- Andra intervju med rekryterande chef Sofie (https://www.linkedin.com/in/sofie-falck-4ba80982/)
- Case-övning
- Erbjudande och bubbel laget runt!

Sales Development Representative to Alva Labs
Let us tell you a little story. There once was a girl that moved to Sweden from Pakistan. She had a great education, but no work experience from the Swedish market. She started applying for jobs, got rejected, applied for more jobs, got more rejections, and that was how the terrible pingpong game continued for quite some time. Despite having so much to offer, she was never given the opportunity. Often she never even got to go on an interview. She was given advice such as “change your last name”, you will never get in with a foreign name. After months and months of this, she found a company that hired through objective methods. Psychometric tests to be exact. For the first time, she got the same opportunity as all the other candidates to show what she could provide the organization. She got the job. And guess what? She is now one of the most appreciated colleagues both based on her performance and her awesomeness. Oh, by the way, it might be your future colleague, because she is working at Alva Labs.

At Alva, we work hard every day to create happy endings for more candidates across the globe. Job hunting shouldn’t be as hard as it is. Come help us change that!

The role
Our sales team is a well-oiled machine, where you will work closely with other SDRs and Account Executives. You will be responsible for the initial part of the funnel making sure to book qualified meetings to ensure a strong pipeline. By using the right tech stack, it will be easy to identify the right prospects and get in touch with them using best practices and the latest technology.

You
We don’t necessarily care that much about what you have done before. Maybe have worked in sales before, maybe you haven’t. One of our current superstars came from a support role within recruitment, and she is loving what she is doing :). So to be super transparent, if you are the right person (because that we care a lot about), we can help you reach your full potential on site. There is enough structure and collegial support to go around! We do believe you cross of some of these characteristics:

- Genuinely enjoy handling stakeholders of all sorts
- Structured
- Communicative
- Goal-oriented (some would call it stubbornness, we just used the fancy CV appropriate term)
- You are comfortable with English, and speak either Finnish or Norweigan (or both ????)


Weird senses of humor are also always welcomed, but more of a nice-to-have :)

Your future colleagues
We are a team of 50 people, representing 16 different nationalities and a wide selection of professional backgrounds.

Amazing Product Manager - Growth
Think back to the day of your graduation. Think about all the people that stood beside you on that day. You had all accomplished something fantastic. You had worked hard to earn your degree and finally, it was time to harvest the fruits of your efforts. To get a job that could pay the bills! Now to the million-dollar question, would you hire all your classmates?

We are gonna go ahead and guess the answer is no. Simply because we guess you were not equally impressed with all your classmates… But why is that? On paper, you were all the same. Your CVs said the same things. You should be equally good, right?

Many recruiters have fallen into this trap. Believing that what they read on papers tells them enough about the individual behind the CV. Alva Labs offers a solution to those recruiters. A way to, objectively and fair, evaluate candidates based on who they are, and based on that, make better hiring decisions. We use science to power up recruitment processes and it has proven to be a success. We are now out hunting for our next Product Manager to come help us grow even faster.

Is it you? Or one of your classmates?

The company
Alva Labs offers a SaaS solution that is helping global companies grow their team in a scientific way. Alva has created a unique candidate assessment platform that helps companies build their organizations with the right people in the right place. By combining state-of-the-art psychometrics, data science, and an obsession with candidate experience, it provides the needed tool for data-driven talent acquisition.

We are growing 2-3x per year and are in the exciting phase to launch Alva in new markets. Currently, we are focusing a lot on making Product Lead Growth our engine for expansion.

The role
We are looking for a Product Manager to help shape our next wave of growth.

Together with a team of engineers and designers, we want you to help set the vision for the squad, prioritize what should be built, test out new features and take lead in figuring out how to best scale growth in the company.

You will focus on the core journeys and work closely with our more commercially facing teams, such as marketing and Customer Success. Bottom line, you will have a lot of say and we want you to teach us how the job is done and how we can build our product to maximize product-led-growth. Up for the challenge?!

You
We believe you are someone who can get things done. You are likely comfortable to ship things and test them out. You are goal-oriented, initiative-taking, and just an amazing person to be around.

What about my background, you might be thinking. Well that’s the thing, we aren’t big fans of focusing on that. Perhaps you come from Product Management, product perhaps from engineering, product ownership, or from design. Maybe you have a financial background, we don’t know. Ideally, you have worked in-house with consumer products (or you are just eager to learn, and learn fast). In this role, you will:

- Envision and execute impactful ways to bring new products to market
- Wear many hats and do what is necessary to bring a great product to market
- Be the key spokesperson for all growth opportunities between product, marketing, sales and customer success
- Define, understand and improve growth funnels and metrics

With 200+ customers, strong YoY growth, a CSAT of 85, and 150 000+ assessed candidates, there is a lot of greatness to build from.

Amazing Product Manager - Growth
Think back to the day of your graduation. Think about all the people that stood beside you on that day. You had all accomplished something fantastic. You had worked hard to earn your degree and finally, it was time to harvest the fruits of your efforts. To get a job that could pay the bills! Now to the million-dollar question, would you hire all your classmates?

We are gonna go ahead and guess the answer is no. Simply because we guess you were not equally impressed with all your classmates… But why is that? On paper, you were all the same. Your CVs said the same things. You should be equally good, right?

Many recruiters have fallen into this trap. Believing that what they read on papers tells them enough about the individual behind the CV. Alva Labs offers a solution to those recruiters. A way to, objectively and fair, evaluate candidates based on who they are, and based on that, make better hiring decisions. We use science to power up recruitment processes and it has proven to be a success. We are now out hunting for our next Product Manager to come help us grow even faster.

Is it you? Or one of your classmates?

The company
Alva Labs offers a SaaS solution that is helping global companies grow their team in a scientific way. Alva has created a unique candidate assessment platform that helps companies build their organizations with the right people in the right place. By combining state-of-the-art psychometrics, data science, and an obsession with candidate experience, it provides the needed tool for data-driven talent acquisition.

We are growing 2-3x per year and are in the exciting phase to launch Alva in new markets. Currently, we are focusing a lot on making Product Lead Growth our engine for expansion.

The role
We are looking for a Product Manager to help shape our next wave of growth.

Together with a team of engineers and designers, we want you to help set the vision for the squad, prioritize what should be built, test out new features and take lead in figuring out how to best scale growth in the company.

You will focus on the core journeys and work closely with our more commercially facing teams, such as marketing and Customer Success. Bottom line, you will have a lot of say and we want you to teach us how the job is done and how we can build our product to maximize product-led-growth. Up for the challenge?!

You
We believe you are someone who can get things done. You are likely comfortable to ship things and test them out. You are goal-oriented, initiative-taking, and just an amazing person to be around.

What about my background, you might be thinking. Well that’s the thing, we aren’t big fans of focusing on that. Perhaps you come from Product Management, product perhaps from engineering, product ownership, or from design. Maybe you have a financial background, we don’t know. Ideally, you have worked in-house with consumer products (or you are just eager to learn, and learn fast). In this role, you will:

- Envision and execute impactful ways to bring new products to market
- Wear many hats and do what is necessary to bring a great product to market
- Be the key spokesperson for all growth opportunities between product, marketing, sales and customer success
- Define, understand and improve growth funnels and metrics


Your future colleagues
We have skiers, runners, lego builders, musicians, Dancing with the stars-winners, cricket lovers, PhDs, pilots, bakers, multi-lingual wine lovers. Our sub 50 people team represents over 15 different nationalities and a wide spread in professional backgrounds. We dare to promise both intriguing conversations, belly laughs and a lot of learning.

Software Engineer to Alva Labs
People with a foreign background have a 60% less likelihood of getting callbacks to interviews, compared to natives. Regardless of professional background. Women need to apply for 30% more jobs than men in order to get employment. There is something seriously wrong with hiring today, but it can be fixed. Alva Labs is driving a shift in the hiring market and changing how organizations value their people with the help of software built on psychology, data science, a lot of statistics, and great engineering craftsmanship.

We are now looking for full-stack engineers to join a great team to help us take our system and product to the next level. Come and help us shape the companies of tomorrow.

Alva in a nutshell
Alva Labs’ unique candidate assessment platform helps companies build their organizations with the right people in the right place. By combining state-of-the-art psychometrics, data science, and an obsession with candidate experience, it provides the needed tool for data-driven talent acquisition. The platform is built to enable scale and automation through smooth integrations and unprecedented ease of use. Through its large focus on candidate experience, Alva also offers the next generation’s talent-centric assessment solution.

We are a team of 50 people with a wide variety of professional backgrounds. Alva is growing 2-3x per year, serving 200+ customers and 150 000+ candidates.

Why is this role important to us
Our product is the heart and soul of Alva. Now as we focus more and more on Product Lead Growth it will be the driving factor in our growth and expansion. We are also in discovery to start building the next big bet of our service. We need a strong team of engineers and designers that can make all our big plans become reality.

What will you do
You will work in our international team of designers and engineers, consisting of, among others, Abuzhan (https://www.linkedin.com/in/abuzhan-aidaraliyev/) ????????, Erdem (https://www.linkedin.com/in/erdem-bozkurt/) ???????? , Vega (https://www.linkedin.com/in/vega-niketh-78571372/) ????????, Rafael (https://www.linkedin.com/in/imrafarafarafa/) ????????, Andreas (https://www.linkedin.com/in/andreas-gabrielsson-1996b059/) ????????, and Abraham (https://www.linkedin.com/in/abraham-mathewos-62aa02138/) ????????. Together you will create a platform that is already disrupting the way of hiring.

At Alva, we strongly believe that experimentation is the best way of learning and making decisions about product and technology. Therefore we try our best to keep the feedback loops short to iteratively improve our product and our system. For this to be possible, we need a modern system that is fun and easy to work with.

We are using continuous deployment with automated deployment pipelines using TravisCI and infrastructure as code with Terraform.

The system that you will be working on is based on an event-driven microservice architecture. Our backend services are written in Python and our frontends are based on ReactJS with either JavaScript or TypeScript. All of our services are deployed in Google Cloud Platform using Google Kubernetes Engine and Cloud Run. The API between our frontend and backend is a GraphQL API.

Being an event-driven system, it is extensively using Google Cloud Pub/Sub and Protocol Buffers for event-delivery and encoding. Examples of other GCP services we are using are:

- Cloud Firestore
- Cloud for Postgre
- Cloud Tasks
- Google Bigquery


Working as a full-stack engineer at Alva, you will work and interact with many parts of the system on a regular basis. All in all, we think that our system is a fun and rewarding system to work with. Combined with a team of humble and high-performing engineers, we believe that Alva is a good environment to improve and develop one's skills in building well-structured, distributed, and event-driven systems.

Who are you
- A prestigeless team player
- A master of turning complex problems into solutions that breathe simplicity
- A quick learner who is curious to work in a growing and changing environment


What have you done before
Honestly, background isn’t what we value the most. As long as you are a great person, with some background within software engineering, we believe you will learn the rest while working at Alva. But sure, if you have previous experience working with the technologies mentioned above or similar, that would be beneficial.

Our internal language is English, Swedish is not a requirement for this position.

Why you should join Alva
- We are solving big hairy problems that impact our end-users, the candidate’s, professional (and often personal) life
- You will join a great team, but it is still early days, you will come to an organization where you can make a difference and will have great opportunities to grow

- You will get 7 weeks of vacation, an on-market salary, a generous preventive care benefit, and a few other neat perks. You can read all about our benefits here (https://www.notion.so/alvalabs/Benefits-1abeeb8de8004f6ab915f2fced70f057)

Data Analyst to Alva Labs
Join our fast growing startup as the first data analyst and be part of defining how we work with analytics!

The company
Alva Labs was founded in 2017 with the mission to make hiring better. Today, we help our customers to be more efficient and accurate in their hiring by offering psychometric tests. You can read more about our product on our website (https://www.alvalabs.io/about).

Over the four years since inception, Alva has grown from an idea in a basement to a company with more than 200 customers and 50 employees (representing over 15 different nationalities). This is the time to join us when we are transitioning to the next level.

The role
You will be the first data analyst at Alva. Together with our CTO and the management team, you will be part of defining and prioritising KPIs across the company; from product usage to sales metrics. With our core metrics defined and prioritised, you will be part of making sure this data is available to the relevant people in a convenient way.

Daily work could include, but is not limited to:

- Configuring new dashboards
- Analyse sales data - which customer segments do we have most success in?
- Together with the Product team, define metrics such as ‘what is an active user?’.
- Decide what events we need to track in the product to effectively measure success of a new feature
- Implement cleaning algorithms to improve data quality
- Building a Slackbot to send metric updates


We do have a very friendly engineering team to help out, and this is not a software engineering role so we don’t expect you to build data pipelines on your own (if you don’t want to).

Over the coming years, our analytics team will grow significantly. Being the first data analyst at this point will give you a lot of freedom and opportunity to grow, as well as setting the foundation for our analytics stack.

About you
We think you are nerdy, friendly and ambitious. Nerdy in the sense that you want to go deep into the problems you work on and study every last detail. Friendly in the sense that you want to collaborate with other team members and prioritises the output of the team over individual performance. Ambitious in the sense that you always strive for high quality in everything you do.

To succeed in this role, we believe there are three key skills:

-
- Mathematics/Statistics
- Programming


We believe that you have a background working as a data/business analyst, data scientist, programmer or similar adjacent role, but we don’t have any formal qualifications for you to apply. More importantly, you have a strong interest in the field.

Our internal language is English, Swedish is not a requirement for this position.

What’s our stack?
- We host our product on Google Cloud Platform and use a plethora of their different products. Most relevant from an analytics perspective is that we use BigQuery (https://cloud.google.com/bigquery) as our data warehouse. For some usage metrics in the product, we query a Postgres read replica (https://cloud.google.com/sql/docs/postgres/replication) of our main production database.
- We are hosting company dashboards in Klipfolio (https://www.klipfolio.com/).
- Slack is at the center of our work. For example, we push our most important usage to metrics to slack every day.


Why you should join our team
- We are working on a complicated and important problem for our customers.
- You will join an ambitious team, that’s still in the early days with great opportunities to grow.
- Flexible work-life. You decide where you work from (but most of us are based in Stockholm).
- You will get 7 weeks of vacation, an on-market salary, a generous preventive care benefit and a few other perks. You can read all about our benefits here (https://www.notion.so/alvalabs/Benefits-1abeeb8de8004f6ab915f2fced70f057).
- You will join a value-driven company - read about our values here (https://www.notion.so/alvalabs/Alva-Values-630a69c6c72642f2b1caab5dab55b953).


The process
You apply to the position by filling out the form on this page. In the application form, you are asked to include:

- 2-3 sentences on the work you're most proud of
- 2-3 things you're currently learning
- A few sentences about how you think analytics should work in a 50 person startup


After that, the process consists of four steps:

- Logic & Personality test
- Interview with our Head of People - Linnea
- Case exercise
- Interview with our CTO - Björn
As an optional step after the first interview, you will have the chance to talk to some team members at Alva to get a feeling of our company culture. If this is interesting to you, we will provide you with contact details after the interview.

Customer Success Manager to Alva Labs
In the 1980s, we got to follow the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Leonardo, Raphael, Donatello, and Michelangelo, in their fight against crime and evil in New York City. Now what on earth does that have to do with the fact that Alva Labs is out scouting for a new Customer Success Manager? EVERYTHING!

Our Customer Success team is very much like the ninja turtles, but rather than fighting crime, they fight injustice within recruitment. Alva’s ninjas make our clients build great teams by hire in an efficient, non-biased, and scientific way. They take down human error and subjectivity, one bias at a time. They help create a world, where all applicants are assessed on equal terms and the most suitable candidates get the job.

We are in need of another Leonardo (the tactical, level-headed, devoted, and courageous one) to join our team of fantastic customer success ninjas, led by the sensei Christopher (https://www.linkedin.com/in/christopherwarrengash/). Are you ready to put on your mask and join us?

Alva in a nutshell
Ever stumbled upon a personality test in a recruitment process? Alva Labs is a SaaS scale-up that offers a unique candidate assessment platform. We help companies build their organizations with the right people in the right place, in a fair, accurate, and automated way. By combining state-of-the-art psychometrics, data science, and an obsession with candidate experience, we provide the needed tool for data-driven talent acquisition.

We are growing 2-3x per year and are in the exciting phase of launching Alva in new markets. With new customers coming aboard at a rate of knots and existing ones expanding scope, we're looking to build out our Customer Success team to help meet the demand and help us continue to deliver best-in-class service.

What will you do
- Take total ownership of your customers, both newly onboarded and mature accounts
- Fight injustice in recruitment alongside our industry category experts
- Build and implement strategies to drive account growth. You will be given retention and upsell targets to deliver against
- Cultivate and develop relationships across your accounts. Connect with key stakeholders to ensure Alva is viewed as a strategic partner
- Profoundly understand your customers’ objectives, challenges, and expectations. Collaborate both internally and externally to create delivery plans for short and long term growth
- Analyze performance data and deliver insight to customers
- Work alongside the rest of the customer success to build processes and steer projects


What have you done before
We believe in finding the right person, rather than the right CV. But it would be great if you have a background either in commercially focussed Customer Success roles and/or recruitment or psychometric testing in some capacity. We have a lot of in-house knowledge when it comes to psychometrics and tests, but we will pretty much expect you to handle the Customer Success role from the start. Plus, if you have fought crime in the sewers of New York City, that might just get you shortlisted.

Life at Alva

We are a diverse team of 45 people, representing 15 different nationalities. Your closest colleagues will come from a wide range of professional backgrounds, how about partnering up with an ex-professional dancer, a psychologist, an acro-yoga instructor, or a researcher?

At Alva, you will work in an exciting, fast-past environment, where you will have the opportunity to grow every day. Mixing business with pleasure is our secret weapon. So don’t be surprised when someone drags you along on a “run n talk” instead of an ordinary meeting, if you have a session of mindfulness or yoga in between meetings, or if the after-work ends up with butt-spins on a dance floor somewhere (speaking from experience). Simply put, you will work hard, and you will play hard! And you will do so surrounded by incredible, supportive people.

Why you should join our team:

- How about 7 weeks of vacation? If that doesn’t do it for you, check out the rest of our benefits (https://www.notion.so/alvalabs/Benefits-1abeeb8de8004f6ab915f2fced70f057)
- You will get to work with an exiting, and growing, customer base, impacting the way organizations hire and scale
- You will join a value-driven company, check out our values (https://www.notion.so/alvalabs/Alva-Values-630a69c6c72642f2b1caab5dab55b953)
- Oh, and yes. You will have A LOT of fun! ;)


There is a shift in the hiring market and in how companies value their people. Alva is part in driving that shift. Don’t miss out on this incredible journey, where we have the opportunity to become the Global leading HR tech SaaS!

Sales Development Representative to Alva Labs
Alva Labs is now out scouting for a great SDR to join our fast-growing startup! We have great momentum and are getting ready to launch in new markets. Come change the world of hiring with us!
Alva in a nutshell
Ever stumbled upon a personality test in a recruitment process? Alva Labs is a SaaS scale-up that offers a unique candidate assessment platform. We help companies build their organizations with the right people in the right place, in a fair, accurate and automated way. By combining state-of-the-art psychometrics, data science, and an obsession with candidate experience, we provide the needed tool for a data-driven talent acquisition.
Why is this role important to us
The SDR-role is maybe the most strategic and important role for our success within the full sales team and also to make the most out of all marketing initiatives. SDRs play the role of being the driving path between marketing- and sales funnel, and both convert Marketing Qualified Leads as well as untouched Ideal Customer Profile companies into sales qualified leads that will later work their way throughout the Sales funnel or back / into marketing funnel. Honestly? The SDR is the heart and soul of the sales process!
What will you do
You will be responsible for providing the Account Executives with relevant meetings in line with our Ideal Customer Profile.
Be an early part of our international launch (world domination, here we come!)
You will work with outbound and inbound sales: from prospecting and screening leads, setting up meetings through phone and email and helping moving them through the sales funnel.
You will work with the latest prospecting and CRM tools. You are to find, and take, the first contact with the right people.
You will be part of a small and nimble team and work closely together with our full sales team, Head of Sales, and our CEO and Head of Marketing.
Work with a former European champion, a World champion (yes, we have one of each), an interior decorator, an award winning boccia player, and a national team gymnastic coach. Oh, they do sales as well.

Who are you
You exhibit a strong “can-do” attitude and are a motivated self-starter
You move quickly and effectively and can excel in high-performing teams
You are assertive and owns your own goal fulfillment
You are business-minded and strategic
You are persistent
You are eager to learn, work hard and passionate about joining a dynamic startup journey
You are a great communicator (both written and verbal)

What have you done before
We believe that great people will find a way, regardless of previous experience. If you have skills within or have worked with sales/marketing, different digital systems, SaaS and/or people science before, great. If you haven’t, no worries! There is plenty of know-how in-house to get you started. However, we do believe you have a passion for sales and for hunting down opportunities.
About our team
We are currently a team of 35 happy campers, based in central Stockholm with a collective and extensive experience of building tech companies, Psychology, Psychometrics, Data Science, Engineering and Product Design.
We are a high performing team who loves to accomplish goals as well as learn from each other in multiple ways. We value flexibility in work, work-life balance, personal and career development and an inspiring working environment.
And yes, we are a tech start-up with MacBooks and coke zero, that love doing spontaneous after-works, lunch workouts, off-sites and epic team events.

Säljare till Alva Labs
Har du någonsin sökt ett jobb som passade dig perfekt, men sen inte ens fått komma på interju? Det har hänt de flesta av oss. Tragiskt nog, händer det dock av fel anledningar. Till exempel har personer med ett arabisktklingande namn 60% mindre chans att bli kallade på intervju jämfört med någon med ett svenskt namn, trots om de har likvärdig bakgrund. För ledarroller är det mindre chans att gå vidare i processen om du är kvinna eller om du är kort (ja, du läst rätt, kort!).

Men det behöver inte vara så här. Det finns alternativa sätt att anställa baserat på kriterier som verkligen spelar roll, baserat på personen bakom CVt. Alva är ett sådant alternativ. Nu letar vi efter säljare som kan hjälpa oss driva tillväxt och hjälpa våra kunder börja implementera morgondagens sätt att rekrytera, idag!????

Alva i ett nötskal
Någonsin gjort ett personlighetstest i en rekryteringsprocess? Alva Labs är ett tech bolag som erbjuder en unik plattform för kandidatutvärdering. Vi hjälper företag bygga sin organisation med rätt personer på rätt plats, på ett rättvist, tillförlitligt och automatiserat sätt. Genom att kombinera banbrytande psykometri, data science tillsammans med en besatthet av kandidatupplevelse, erbjuder vi det centrala verktyget för datadriven talent acquisition.

Vi växer 2-3x årligen och är i en spännande fas där vi lanserar Alva på nya marknader.

Vad kommer du göra?
Som säljare på Alva kommer ditt huvudsakliga ansvar vara att driva, utveckla och stänga affärer som blivit kvalificerade till dig av vårt Sales Development team.

Du kommer vara en del av ett tight team och jobba nära vår Head of Sales för att bygga och skala upp säljteamet. Vi rullar just nu ut produkten på nya marknader och behöver personer som vill växa med oss. Om du visar vad du går för finns det ingen gräns för hur långt du kan gå!

Lite mer om rollen

- Tydliga mål och delmål
- Du driver kunder genom säljprocessen, från kvalificerade första möten till signering
- Över tid finns det goda möjligheter att växa in i mer seniora roller inom försäljning
- Du är med och sprider Alva till nya, internationella marknader
- Du äger dina egna mål och hjälper till att hela tiden förbättra våra arbetssätt


Livet på Alva

Vi är ett diversifierat team som representerar 15 olika nationaliteter. Dina närmsta kollegor kommer från en rad olika professionella bakgrunder. Hur vore det att teama upp med en före detta professionell dansare, en psykolog, en ex inredningsdesigner, en acro-yoga instruktör, eller varför inte en före detta svensk mästare i boule? Åh, just det. Numera jobbar alla inom försäljning.

På Alva kommer du jobba i en snabbrörlig miljö med möjlighet att växa varje dag. Att ombinera nytta med nöje är lite av vår expertis. Bli inte förvånad om du blir meddragen på en “ring och spring” istället för ett vanligt möte framför skärmen, ifall din chef kommer indansande i apdräkt (japp, det har hänt), ifall du har en session av mindfulness eller yoga mellan möten eller om en AW slutar i gymnastikutmaning på en takterass (igen, det har hänt). Summa kardemumma, vi jobbar hårt med vi ser till att det finns tillfällen för kul också. Och du kommer hela tiden få göra detta tillsammans med helt fantastiskt gäng personer.

Varför du borde bli en del av vårt team:

- Vad sägs om 7 veckors semester? Som om det inte är anledning nog, kolla in alla våra benefits (https://www.notion.so/alvalabs/Benefits-1abeeb8de8004f6ab915f2fced70f057)
- Du kommer få jobba tillsammans med dessa (https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/14djNVJLVTsERBkdoiMKJ51YXWhkSG_HN32Q2Ue3ttwc/edit#slide=id.gc9030e567f_0_150) fantastiska människor!
- Du blir en del av ett värderingsstyrt bolag, läs mer om våra värderingar här (https://www.notion.so/alvalabs/Alva-Values-630a69c6c72642f2b1caab5dab55b953)
- Åh, och du kommer ha kul. Sanslöst kul ;)


Det är ett skifte i rekryteringsbranschen och i hur företag sätter värde på sina anställda. Alva är en del i att driva det skiftet. Missa inte denna fantastiska resa, där vi har möjligheten att bli det globalt ledande hr tech bolaget!

Content Marketing Manager to Alva Labs
Think back to the day of your graduation. Imagine the excitement, the newly ironed clothes, the giggles. Now imagine the people standing next to you, your classmates. You had passed the same courses, with the same (sometimes slightly weird) professors. On paper, you were all equal. If you all applied for the same job you should all be equally successful right? Probably not! Background and experience is obviously relevant, you all have something with you from your education that will bring value. But that is not the whole story. This is what’s broken with hiring today. Companies focus on certain aspects (experience, education and background), and miss out on other really important things (the individual). This is where Alva comes in. We help companies look beyond the CV and recruit based on science. Join us, and come tell our story to the world.

Alva in a nutshell
Ever stumbled upon a personality test in a recruitment process? Alva Labs is a SaaS scale-up that offers a unique candidate assessment platform. We help companies build their organizations with the right people in the right place, in a fair, accurate and automated way. By combining state-of-the-art psychometrics, data science, and an obsession with candidate experience, we provide the needed tool for data-driven talent acquisition.

We are growing 2-3x per year and are in the exciting phase to launch Alva in new markets.

Why is this role important to us
We have a great product that is truly making a difference for our customers. Just take a look at what one of our customers says here (https://www.alvalabs.io/blog/why-seb-chose-alva-to-join-their-path-to-increased-diversity). But we need to let more people in on this not-so-secret secret on how to revolutionize the way of hiring. There are several absolutely incredible thought leaders in the house, such as Kajsa (https://www.linkedin.com/in/kajsaasplund/), Morgan (https://www.linkedin.com/in/morganpihl/), Malcolm (https://www.linkedin.com/in/malcolmburenstamlinder/) and Sofia (https://www.linkedin.com/in/sofia-palmelius-kolga-155a595a/). We think a great content marketer can convert their brains into great content, and through that really bring value to potential and existing clients. To be frank, at the end of the day we believe you will convert your content creation into dollars!

What will you do
In essence, your job is to tell stories that will inspire, engage, educate and convert our target audience. On the path to building a content machine you will work both very strategically with our brand and goals, and at the same time get to roll up your sleeves to get the content out to the world. Your daily tasks will of course vary greatly (and change over time as we grow), but here’s what we think you will focus the most on:

- Create & package compelling stories for an international audience.
- Run our content marketing efforts, from idea to publication. You’re more or less building a small media production company - planning our content, building a content calendar, coordinating production, setting deadlines and measuring effects.
- Optimize delivery & distribution - maximizing reach & repurposing content, using an SEO and PR mindset to increase reach.
- Work closely with other teams at Alva to find opportunities where quality content can help prospects & leads to move further down the sales funnel, or existing customers & users to become brand ambassadors.
- Work with internal content producers as their editor - coaching them on how to write & proofread. Sometimes you might even act as a ghostwriter for them.
- Ensure we have enough production resources, either through internal resources or by leveraging freelancers/agencies.


Who are you
- A true storyteller and you know how to write WELL.
- Fluent in English (ideally fluent on a native level) as all of our communication is currently in English. Swedish is not a requirement for this role.
- A strong project manager that can handle a lot of different stakeholders, having a structured & organized way of working.
- You have an eye for what looks good or not. Basic layout & design skills are welcome but not required.
- You have good knowledge of PR & SEO mechanics and how to put wings on content.
- You know what KPIs to track (and how to track them) to understand what content works best and prove ROI
- A creative mastermind (but with the planning skills of a neat-freak).


What have you done before
We have really high standards and are searching for that person that will dazzle us. What makes you great, however, isn’t necessarily a long experience or the perfect university degree. A background as a journalist/experienced content marketer will likely give you a head-start once you join, and having worked with content creation, brand storytelling or social media could be relevant. However, we truly believe that great people will find a way, regardless of previous experience. So if you’re interested and curious about the role - hit that apply button.

About the team

We are currently a team of 35 happy campers, based in central Stockholm with a collective and extensive experience of building tech companies, Psychology, Psychometrics, Data Science, Engineering and Product Design.

We are a high-performing team that loves to accomplish goals as well as learn from each other in multiple ways. We value flexibility in work, work-life balance, personal and career development and an inspiring working environment.

- What we do has a great impact on our customers' performance and the way they operate their businesses
- You will have great opportunities to advance within the company. At some point, we believe this role is leading a content team.
- You will join a value-driven company, check out our values (https://www.notion.so/alvalabs/Alva-Values-630a69c6c72642f2b1caab5dab55b953)

But it doesn’t have to be like this. There are alternatives to hire based on the stuff that really matters, based on who the person behind the CV is. Alva is one of those alternatives.

The Account Executive is a quota-carrying role and your primary responsibility will be to drive, develop and close sales opportunities that are qualified by the Sales Development team.

You will be part of a tight-working team and work closely together with our Head of Sales to build and scale the sales team. We are currently expanding to new markets and need people that, at some point, can own those markets. Prove your capacity and not even the sky is the limit.

There is nothing hidden in your head

That the sorting hat can’t see

So try me on and I will tell you

Where you ought to be.”

The Sorting Hat, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone

If only recruitment was as easy as this. But outside of Hogwarts, there is no sorting hat. Or is there…? Alva Labs is building a tech muggle version of a sorting hat that helps organizations globally identify who is a good match for their job openings. We are now looking for a growth wizard that can work magic with our data, make dropouts from the sales funnel disappear into thin air, and conjure up more deals, faster.

And yes. We went with “Growth wizard” to bring the Harry Potter analogy home. Sometimes the role is also called “Growth Hacker”. But at the end of the day this role isn’t about hacks or magic. It’s about approaching marketing in a structured & data-driven way, where you use data & insights to find growth opportunities.

Alva in a nutshell
Ever stumbled upon a personality test in a recruitment process? Alva Labs is a SaaS scale-up that offers a unique candidate assessment platform. We help companies build their organizations with the right people in the right place, in a fair, accurate and automated way. By combining state-of-the-art psychometrics, data science, and an obsession with candidate experience, we provide the needed tool for data-driven talent acquisition.

We are growing 2-3x per year and are in the exciting phase to launch Alva in new markets.

Why is this role important to us
We are growing. Fast. We have a strong product-market-fit and happy customers (some of them raving fans, even). We are closing in on 100 000 assessed candidates, 8000 job positions, and 200 customers. We have proven that we can grow - now it’s time to start scaling. As our Growth Marketing Manager, you will be responsible for optimizing our sales funnel and building a lean mean lead machine. You will work across the whole customer journey: From getting visitors to the website, converting them to leads, helping the sales team close the deal and finally finding ambassadors and referrals within our existing customer base. This role is key in growing our revenue, and crucial in helping us expand in current and new markets.

What will you do
Your main responsibility is to drive new revenue and grow the company. Easy peasy, right? That also means you have to go where the data & opportunities take you, but here’s a shortlist of what we think you will be focusing on:

- Take control of the sales funnel- making sure data is collected and structured, finding insights and taking action on them
- Own campaigns & lead nurturing flows in Hubspot
- Distribute our content and find out what works and doesn’t work
- Lead the work of our agencies/freelancers in Paid social and SEM
- Lead our SEO and CRO efforts
- Work closely with the Sales team to understand their needs & challenges to find improvements in the sales funnel (and take action on them!)
- Work closely with the Customer Success team to understand the user journey & customer pain points to find improvements


Who are you
- A data & statistics lover. You understand numbers, how to slice data and what you want from a dashboard. And you know how to present it so non-marketers (a.k.a. muggles) understand it.
- A techy marketer. From choosing what tools you need (be it Hotjar, Google Optimize or GA4) to understanding how to implement it.
- You’re the jack of all trades. A one-person agile team - the product owner, the scrum master, the paid ads specialist and the creative. You will of course have resources to work with freelancers & agencies as we scale, but you should also be comfortable rolling up your sleeves.
- A goal-striving individual and a prestigeless team player. We have really ambitious goals here at Alva, and the only way to reach them is to work together as a team.
- Comfortable having a lot of interactions with other teams and stakeholders. As you will run a lot of cross-functional projects, managing expectations and partnering up with colleagues in other teams will be a key to succeed in this role.
- We expect you to be fully comfortable communicating in English, as it’s the official language at Alva. Swedish is not a requirement.


What have you done before
We have really high standards and are searching for that person that will dazzle us. What makes you great, however, isn’t necessarily a long experience. Perhaps you have a background in digital marketing, ideally from b2b. Or you know your SEM, paid social, web analysis, and SEO. Basically, you have most likely been hanging out in contexts with a lot of data. However, we truly believe that great people will find a way, regardless of previous experience. So if you’re interested and curious about the role - hit that apply button.

We are currently a team of 35 happy campers, based in central Stockholm with a collective and extensive experience of building tech companies, Psychology, Psychometrics, Data Science, Engineering and Product Design.

- Oh, and yes. You will have A LOT of fun! ;)

SDRs play the role of being the driving path between marketing- and sales funnel, and both convert Marketing Qualified Leads as well as untouched Ideal Customer Profile companies into sales qualified leads that will later work their way throughout the Sales funnel or back / into the marketing funnel.

- You will be part of a small and nimble team and work closely together with our full sales team, Head of Sales, and our CEO and Head of Marketing.
- Work with a former European champion, a World champion (yes, we have one of each), an interior decorator, an award-winning boccia player, and a national team gymnastic coach. Oh, they do sales as well.


Who are you
- You exhibit a strong “can-do” attitude and are a motivated self-starter
- You move quickly and effectively and can excel in high-performing teams
- You are assertive and owns your own goal fulfillment
- You are business-minded and strategic
- You are persistent
- You are eager to learn, work hard and passionate about joining a dynamic startup journey
- You are a great communicator (both written and verbal)


What have you done before

We believe that great people will find a way, regardless of previous experience. If you have skills within or have worked with sales/marketing, different digital systems, SaaS and/or people science before, great. If you haven’t, no worries! There is plenty of know-how in-house to get you started. However, we do believe you have a passion for sales and for hunting down opportunities.
