Head of Computing Architecture

CEVT is an innovation and development company at the forefront of mobility. Modular development, ground-breaking virtual engineering, software development and continuous innovation enable us to deliver world-class technology.

Today we deliver to different automotive brands in the Geely family such as Geely Auto, Volvo Cars, and Lynk & Co and are based at Lindholmen in Gothenburg.

The Computing Architecture team is responsible for the on-board electrical architecture, enabling feature development for both fleet customers and vehicle users. Our work effort has low visibility to external customers but is highly noticeable when issues arise. We are always in the core of software and functional issue root cause analyses and in many cases issue resolution. Keeping our electrical architectures from diverging between different brands and top hats, while at the same time being relevant for future functionality, is a challenge that we are skilfully continuously managing.

As Head of Computing Architecture, you are responsible to develop the Computing Architecture team and the individuals therein, to secure all related project deliveries and manage the finances of the team. You are expected to have an outlook into future technology trends and development and develop tactics and strategies for next level of electrical architectures. You are also expected to build relations both with internal stakeholders and key cooperation partners within Geely Group.

At CEVT, you will be a part of a global company with people who want to do great things and enjoy it. As Head of Computing Architecture, you will report directly to the Head of Platform Architecture and be based at Uni3 Lindholmen, Gothenburg.
