At Nokia, you have a personal opportunity in an inspiring environment to make a global difference. Build a career that you will be proud of. Go on an adventure every day. Help shape a new era in the mobile industry. It’s your world. This is your moment to shape it.



Nokia's Location & Commerce team is building a set of APIs and tools that will "where enable" a new class of applications and services on both mobile and web. The API Platform is the delivery vehicle for those APIs, and their path to the end user.



We are looking for an Architect/Product Manager to define the next generation of the API Platform, its components, and ensure that it is serving the needs of Nokia's Map Platform in enabling intuitive access to our APIs for developers, partners, and 3rd party users going forward.



In this role you will be responsible for driving the conceptual development and implementation of the API Platform, including our OAuth-based security modules, the developer registration database, and interfaces for API metrics and analytics. You will interact with external suppliers where needed, in order to evaluate 3rd party solutions.



You will work closely with internal services and engineering teams, as well as the head of developer services, to ensure you have a clear understanding of needs.



Our culture is founded on openness, collaboration and honesty, with colleagues who are brilliant in their field, resilient, and above all, strive for the best. One team, where everyone makes a difference and everyone is heard. We care. Even in tough times.

We are driven by a better tomorrow, not just by past success. We make great products and services for millions of people, positively improving their daily lives. We are on a path where simplicity and “thinking big” can lead to great things.
