Group Manager Cloud and App Development within E/E Development IO Asia

Are you ready for the greatest adventure of your life? Then come and write Scania history together with us at E/E Development Industrial Operations Asia!

Scania has decided to establish a third industrial hub in China. Alongside building a new factory and an expansion of the sales network we will also establish a local R&D organization in China. Our mission in R&D Industrial Operations Asia is to develop trucks specially adapted for the Chinese market, the biggest commercial vehicle market in the world.

The work will be carried out by a dedicated organisation that consists of colleagues from all brands within the TRATON Group together with many new colleagues from China. We are building the organisation simultaneously as we are driving the project and are now looking for a group manager that can help us grow with speed.

The starting point for the vehicle's electrical system is the Scania platform. However, to be successful in the Chinese market we have to adopt the electrical system to meet the challenging product cost target while at the same time secure that we meet the very high expectations on Infotainment and Connectivity solutions in the Chinese market.

Your team and work assignments
You will be responsible for building and coaching a team developing software and apps for the cloud, for the user's phone, and for the vehicle's infotainment system. This includes development of connected services running on a cloud platform, infotainment applications running on an Android-based infotainment system in the vehicle, and phone applications running on industry-standard platforms and frameworks. The cloud platform also needs to be adopted and deployed to the cloud in China. This will require you and your team to have good knowledge in the development of connected applications and how to build solutions using the Scania-provided platforms as well as the latest tools and frameworks suitable for China. As a group manager, you will be responsible for recruiting and establishing a team with the right competence and profiles to succeed with your tasks and you will actively lead the work together with the group's experts.

Your profile
You are comfortable working in an organisation under build-up, where not everything is in place, you like to take initiative and lead teams to fast and efficiently solve problems and deliver results. An interest and previous experience in software development are important.

As a person, you are engaged, solution-oriented, and like a high pace. You have courage, take great responsibility and have a good ability to develop and maintain a wide network of contacts at all levels. You enjoy working in an international environment and since you will have many international employees it is important that you feel comfortable in both written and spoken English.

We are looking for a candidate with a master of science in engineering and with competence and experience from working with software development and testing as well as previous experience from leading others.

Your location
Today our offices are located in Södertälje, building 322. At the beginning of 2023, we will start to relocate to China and the new offices in Shanghai. There will be possibilities for both Long term and Short term assignments depending on your role and your situation.
