Work at Drakryggen

CEO Jonas och developer Christian talk about what it's like to work at Drakryggen! (Swedish version only)

Sustainability

Active environmental choices
At Drakryggen, they do as much as possible in their operations to protect the environment, both internally and externally. The company is not entirely carbon-neutral, but with the help of their sustainability strategy, they continuously measure their position and work towards improving it over time. All materials generated in the office, primarily office supplies and household waste, are properly sorted for recycling. They always strive to purchase organic food and drinks, for example, for kickoffs or the office pantry. When new furniture or similar items are needed, priority is given to purchasing products made from recycled materials, and anything no longer needed is donated or sold to promote circular trade. Even any business trips are guided by the sustainability policy, and they should be well justified in order to be carried out. Moreover, whenever possible, these trips should be done in an environmentally friendly manner, preferably by train or using electric/fossil-free cars.
Diversity
Currently, Drakryggen does not have a wide gender or ethnic diversity within the company, something they are well aware of. Increasing diversity is one of the main areas in the company's sustainability policy and is actively prioritized in future recruitments.
Benefits to society
Drakryggen is involved in several concrete projects that promote societal benefits in various ways. With a clear sustainability strategy based on several of the United Nations' global goals, the company is working towards engaging and contributing to the climate, equality and gender parity, as well as developing and disseminating new technology that contributes to a better society. Here are just a few of the projects they have worked on in 2021: Logistics solutions for the distribution of pharmaceuticals.Development of tools for remote support to reduce corporate travel.Development of an interactive playground to promote screen-free play and increase interest in nature among children and youth.These projects exemplify Drakryggen's commitment to addressing important societal issues and their dedication to creating positive change.

Personal development

Drakryggen strives to be a flat and non-hierarchical organization, where there is ample space for each individual to have a long-term impact on their work areas and responsibilities. They carefully listen to the wishes and dreams of all employees and make a sincere effort to find assignments and tasks that align with each individual's specific goals. Regular development conversations and follow-ups enable individuals to either step outside their comfort zone or remain in a position where they feel secure. For newly hired employees who may require additional support during their initial period at the company, a mentor is assigned to work alongside them, providing easy access for any questions or concerns. There is also a guide for new employees called the Drak Guide, which provides a comprehensive introduction to working at the company.

This is what makes us stand out

PlayIT is a playground project in which Drakryggen participated in 2020, together with Linköping Municipality, Uppsala University, KTH, and Ecorado AB. The project is part of the Magistratshagen activity park in Linköping. It features new unique play equipment, the "äggen" (eggs), and the "sagokojan" (fairy tale cabin) – two digitally enhanced installations that are changeable and interactive for those who play with them. Drakryggen's Jonas Hangvar, Richard Kappling, and Linus Evertsson were among those who contributed to this project in various ways.

Location

Kontoret utifrån Drakryggen
Drakryggen's Gothenburg office is located in a shared office space at Flöjelbergsgatan 20 B, on the border between Gothenburg and Mölndal. In fresh and pleasant premises, there are currently six IT consultants working on various types of development, primarily focusing on frontend and backend. The team occupies a dedicated section of the office space but shares the kitchen and other common areas with other companies, naturally fostering connections with more colleagues and people encountered at work.Lunch breaks here alternate between bringing food to the kitchen and enjoying meals at nearby eateries. When the weather is nice, lunch can also be enjoyed on the office's rooftop terrace. Tram lines 2 and 4 pass right outside the office, providing a 15-minute commute to central Gothenburg. The tram and several bus routes also provide access to Mölndal city center in less than 5 minutes, where Mölndal station enables longer-distance commuting by train.
