Global Commercial Digital – let’s introduce ourselves 

This role is within our Global Commercial Digital team, which is using digital technologies to reinvent the experience of becoming a Volvo customer. There’s no reason the experience of buying a car should be painful and difficult – it should be as enjoyable and exciting as actually having a new car. That is our mission.

What you’ll do

You will be a part of the Data and Personalisation area and support the Commercial data transformation journey towards a data culture where each product team expose their own data in an easily consumable way. To achieve this, we work in a multi-functional setting and our main responsibilities includes:

•    Building functionality that makes it easier for product teams within Commercial to expose their data using Volvo Cars Data Platform
•    Giving professional data engineering support to product teams and enable them taking ownership over and expose their data according to best practices
•    Building and maintaining data products on behalf of product teams that are not ready to take ownership or business critical data products built on data from several domains

The role involves significant interaction with stakeholders. You will both support product teams to expose their data and support analysts and business functions to consume data in an effective way. Understanding their needs and how we can assist them is a crucial part of the job. Collaboration with the central data platform team is also key, where you will suggest features that aid our team, product teams and data consumers.

What you’ll bring

We believe that the ideal candidate will possess not only extensive experience with the data engineering technologies we use, but also a high level of proficiency in soft skills.

Your main technical responsibilities include implementing tooling, developing data pipelines and data governance solutions. Previous experience working with Kafka and developing streaming solutions is essential for the role. Snowflake is used to expose data for analytical purposes and the role requires a solid understanding of Snowflake, including access handling and data protection. 

Our stack is based on Azure, ADF, Kafka, Airflow, SQL, Python, Snowflake and DBT and previous experience working with those technologies will be valuable in the role.
On the soft skills side, you should be a collaborative team player who is adaptable and open to changes. A keen interest in learning and delivering is essential, along with a receptiveness to different perspectives. 

The role is a full-time position based in Stockholm. You are currently expected to work from the office in average three days per week, but it could increase in the future as we have an office first policy.
