Now we’re looking for you who want to work with our EE-related roadmaps! Are you a detailed person who loves aligning people to work towards common goals?

About the role
Are you passionate about taking the electrical and electronic systems in our vehicles to the next level? As our new EE Roadmap leader, you will work in close collaboration with all departments throughout the Volvo group working with, or are affected by, our EE system. You will drive the complete EE system roadmap and secure alignment with and between these departments, including the business side. This means that you need to analyse both technical dependencies and portfolio dependencies between department roadmaps and to work towards resolving potential inconsistencies with the concerned stakeholders. By this, you also play an important role in anchoring necessary evolutionary steps of the EE architecture with the roadmaps and product plans in the bigger organization, as well as collecting needs and bottlenecks that help us to identify the next evolutionary steps of the architecture.


In addition to this, you will need to make sure that all prerequisites are in place, paving the road for realizing the roadmap in our product portfolio and backlogs.


Welcome to an exciting role, where you will have the opportunity to shape the future!
