Data driven software development with shorter and faster feedback loops are key in reaching that vision. The Build group develops, integrates, and operates state-of-the-art tools and environments to enable the development of world-class heavy-duty autonomous functionality.

This is a unique opportunity to join an ambitious technology area with disruptive technology, scale-up momentum, and the global business leading Volvo Group.






How you will make an impact


As Group Manager Build, you are responsible for leading and inspiring people as well as ensuring successful deliveries of SW build related solutions. The technology area is instrumental to the technology development


The group consists of two agile teams, focusing on Continuous Integration, -Deployment, Requirement frameworks, SW storage and versioning tools, and Automation of the SW factory. Each team has an uttermost level of expertise amongst its engineers, and we are proud to represent a broad diversity. As Group Manager your job is to coach, support and lead your direct reports, to unlock everyone’s full potential. You will also be responsible for recruiting new talents. Together with the teams, you are accountable for the build environments that allow development teams to focus on their core tasks. You’ll ensure the build contribution is a competitive advantage for our company in developing AD solutions. Your area is at the heart of what we do here at Volvo Autonomous Solutions.


You are also greatly influencing the vision and strategy of the Global Technology Area Infrastructure, being a key member of the management team. Together we find the optimal balance between existing Volvo processes and tools, and state-of-the-art solutions on the open market as well as strategic partners. You are encouraged to dream big, dare to fail, and always invest time in personal development.

Who are you?


We believe it is the right mindset and attitude that will make a difference within our organization. We would like you to have experience in leadership roles with a strong drive for developing and motivating people and teams. As this job is all about collaboration, we believe you are a good listener and communicator and that it is easy for you to connect with other people.

Our working environment is highly international, and hence you need to be proficient in English, both written and spoken.

Knowledge and experience in professional and production grade SW development tools, -processes, as well as agile methodology are meritorious. However, we believe your leadership skills, potential, personality, and the ability to quickly and efficiently understand new contexts are more important than having the domain skills today.

Are we a perfect match?
