Group Manager SW Development Toolchain Volvo Autonomous Solutions

Ready to shape tomorrow`s society together with us?
Volvo Autonomous Solutions is a new entity within the Volvo Group with the mission to offer transport and material handling solutions never seen before. Together we will work on autonomous solutions that will defy conventions and take us to the future. With entirely new business models and advanced technology, we will meet and exceed expectations from customers and contributing to a society that we want to live in. We have office locations in Sweden and in the US.


There is now an opportunity for you to be part in the development of autonomous transport solutions. We are now looking for a Group Manager Software Development Toolchain that will be part of the Infrastructure team in Volvo Autonomous Solutions (V.A.S).


Global Technology Area Infrastructure is the organization making sure we are enabling a modern approach to software development. We are creating new state-of-the-art solutions and connect them to the strengths of the Volvo Group, acting as a turbocharger on the Volvo Group engine.


We do this in the fields of Software Development, Simulations and Data Management. We believe in collaboration and partnerships, both internally in the Volvo Group and even more importantly with the solution providers of the area, incumbent and start-ups.


What will you be doing?
You will be heading the Software development toolchain group where we are working with continuous integration and deployment, release management and configuration management. As group manager you are expected to engage, inspire and lead the team as well as the product forward to success. How this is accomplished is partly up to you as the role is new and you will have the possibility to influence it.


Who are you?
You are eager to excel and take pride in both the soft values of leading people as well as your product deliveries. You are young or old, male or female, have a suitcase full of experience or the drive to fill one. What is valued is your mindset and wish to make this happen.


Experience in software development is important and you understand that building rapidly with continuous integration is important, but is not worth much without the capability to deploy the software and provide feedback to developers. Familiarity with Volvo Group CI/CD and toolchains, GitLab and/or Jama is valued.


What is like to work @ Volvo Autonomous Solutions
We are unified by diversity, great ideas and inclusiveness. Our colleagues are the most important part of the story and we value your well-being as well as work-life balance. Everyone matters and plays critical role in our journey.


There is plenty of room to learn and grow in this organization, from our ongoing learning programs and directly from our experts. You’ll work alongside talented group of colleagues who respect each other’s differences and seek to understand fresh perspectives.


We are yet a small but passionate and effective team that is stronger than the sum of its parts and ready to tackle the big challenges we have ahead of us. Challenges you will be facing can for instance be to create configuration management for entire sites and solutions with the trucks and machines, the cloud services and the infrastructure on the site. We are now looking for you who wants to join us in our endeavor to create customer solutions that enhance safety, flexibility and productivity.


Are we a perfect match?
Even if you feel you do not tick all the boxes, but are intrigued, we would like to hear from you!


We can promise you great colleagues and some truly exciting opportunities. You will work in a global environment that provides you with developmental prospects both professionally and personally. We at Autonomous Solutions want you to prosper and be happy.


We will go through applications continuously and we are looking forward to receiving your application.
