Principal Software Engineer – Build the Future of Risk Modeling

Principal Software Engineer -- Build the Future of Risk Modeling

Bislab is a fast-growing, product-focused tech company building the next generation of credit risk models -- helping people avoid financial distress, access essential services, and reduce loan fraud.
We work hands-on with real data, real users, and real impact -- already powering automated decisions across the Nordics.

We're now hiring two Principal Software Engineers to lead our backend and data platform efforts -- building secure, scalable, and AI-ready infrastructure essential for our international growth.

This is a unique opportunity for an experienced Senior or Principal Engineer ready to take full ownership of a platform -- with high influence, real equity, and the chance to shape how AI and data come together in production.

Why This Role Stands Out

• You'll own the platform -- architecting the systems that make AI-powered risk engines possible.

• Your work ships -- our models are live, impacting decisions daily.

• You join early -- with real equity and influence from day one.

• We're scaling now -- Sweden and Finland launch in 2025, with more markets ahead.

• In-person collaboration -- while we work flexibly, most of us choose to be in the Oslo office 5 days a week. In this growth phase, we need people who can prioritize the work and push forward with the team.

Responsibilities

We face exciting challenges and have ambitious plans for the future. We primarily work with C#, Python, Azure, PostgreSQL, and Neo4j. As part of Bislab, you'll:

• Take lead responsibility for developing and managing a secure and scalable data platform that analyzes large datasets across borders

• Build infrastructure that supports algorithms for credit assessment, risk analysis, and fraud detection

• Implement robust security solutions for handling sensitive data

Requirements

• An experienced developer who values product ownership and influence over the company's future

• Motivated by working in a dynamic environment where your contribution matters

• Interested in our technology stack, potentially with experience in operations and operational tasks

• Passionate about creating products that have a positive impact on society

What We Offer

• Total comp up to 1.5M NOK, including equity (structured to your preferences)

• Base salary tied to ARR milestones -- as we grow, so does your pay

• Deep ownership and autonomy in a high-impact role

• A collaborative, in-person culture -- while we work flexibly, most of us choose to be in the Oslo office together 5 days a week. In this growth phase, we need people who can prioritize the work and push forward with the team.

• A small, expert team (average 15+ years' experience) that prioritizes quality and speed

• Central Oslo office (Arbins gate 1) -- no bureaucracy, no noise

• A culture of clarity, care, and getting things done

Why Join Bislab -- Now?

• We're product-driven, and here for the long term

• Expansion to three markets in 2025 -- you'll build the infrastructure powering it

• AI is central -- your work directly enables its success

• You'll be part of a tight-knit, highly competent team where your work matters
