Career possibilities in Cybersecurity
Empowering work
At link22, there are countless reasons to look forward to work. The camaraderie at the coffee machine makes every day enjoyable, and together, we overcome challenges and celebrate our successes. Implementing and delivering secure IT systems for critical infrastructure gives our tasks profound meaning—they are essential, sometimes even lifesaving.

Whether it’s a nuclear power plant needing to export thermal data or a government agency requiring complete isolation from the internet, our products make a significant impact. We make a difference.

What's It Like to Work in Cybersecurity?
Our COO, Helena Gällerdal Högfeldt, shares insights on working in cybersecurity, building a career at link22, and just how much we enjoy coffee breaks at the office.
What to expect at link22
We believe in community and physical presence for reasons of security, well-being, and performance. While our deliveries impact critical infrastructure and our clients adhere to strict security requirements, it doesn’t stop us from having fun at work. To deliver quality and innovate, we need a stimulating work environment. Below, you can read about some job-related benefits and conditions for team link22.
Holidays
Vacation is a time for rejuvenation that we highly value. Therefore, in the midst of summer, we close the office for three weeks to ensure, as much as possible, that everyone enjoys a continuous and relaxing break.
Teamwork
Many of our tasks require physical presence, and we believe in close teamwork. Therefore, we work on-site. Keeping work and leisure physically separate is advantageous for maintaining a healthy work-life balance. By primarily working in the office and tackling daily challenges together, we foster secure, well-functioning teams and keep ourselves agile!
Colleagues
When someone is about to join your team, you and your colleagues get to meet the candidate to ensure cultural alignment. We believe everything improves when everyone feels at home.
Flexible worktime
Arriving a bit later in the morning or leaving a bit earlier in the afternoon is just as feasible as the opposite for us. Being able to be flexible with one’s working hours means that juggling life’s responsibilities becomes easier. Additionally, at our company, you can accumulate extra hours to later enjoy a full extra week off. We believe that’s flexibility!
Wellness allowance
At link22, we offer a substantial wellness allowance to encourage physical activity and self-care. We believe that exercise contributes to well-being and energized employees.
The Office
Our newly renovated premises have been designed by professionals. With link22’s needs in mind, they’ve created a comfortable and functional environment in a pleasant color scheme.
Fika
We value a pleasant social atmosphere where there’s always coffee available for everyday enjoyment, but where we also take the time to recognize and celebrate our successes together. For coffee enthusiasts, there’s always freshly ground, brewed, and delicious coffee—according to those who come to visit us, at least. For non-coffee drinkers, we offer chilled beverages and a whole box of tea. Fruits and crackers are also provided if an energy boost is needed.
Professional development
A lot happens in our daily work, and at link22, we’re constantly faced with new challenges. Making everyday tasks a part of personal learning and professional development is therefore an expectation placed on everyone. We continuously improve by absorbing new knowledge in various ways. At link22, there are many opportunities to grow and take on new tasks or roles.

Opening doors for the future
We deliver solutions to those facing tough legal requirements, enduring severe attacks, and requiring robust functionality. We must deliver quality and usability; the infrastructure we support must function, rain or shine. This is known in the industry; those who have been with link22 understand what quality means; they know what it takes to deliver cybersecurity without compromise. We do our best to retain talent and expertise while also serving as a gateway to continued careers in IT and cybersecurity.
”A big advantage of working at link22 is the variation of the tasks appointed to you, some are familiar and some completely new. When combined with the encouraging environment, it has resulted in a big development of my competence as an engineer.”
Alexander Källström - Software Developer
High demanding Customers
We cater to those with the highest demands. Often, they operate within a narrow space between legal requirements, functional demands, and usability requirements. Our customers expect quality; if we fail to deliver, it can sometimes even be illegal for them to use our products. Staying at the forefront of cybersecurity means understanding technology, laws, and threats. Being part of link22 means translating this understanding into practical solutions and delivering them discreetly.
A different kind of recruitment process
Security defines link22, and so does the recruitment process. To maintain our own quality standards, preserve certifications, and be an option for those with the highest security demands, we incorporate security into the recruitment process.
