IT infrastructure lead engineer Scania China

Scania is currently undergoing an exciting transformation from a traditional truck manufacturer to a provider of complete sustainable transport solutions. IT is a crucial part of this transformation as Scania’s success is depending on flexible and efficient IT solutions that support current and future business requirements. 

In line with this Scania has decided to establish a third industrial hub close to Shanghai. The target is that this hub should be able to assemble Cabs and Chassis at the beginning of 2024. In order to realize the hub, we must establish an IT landscape supporting the business processes based on our reference architecture. Apart from this we will also be expanding our dealer network and integrate into the Chinese std services eco-system as needed by our business locally. 

 

Your responsibilities as IT infrastructure lead engineer  

A key part of your job is to technically secure the implementation of the needed infrastructure platforms and components in a timely and flexible manner for the ongoing  dealer network expansion and implementation of the new factory. You will be working together with Central IT and local partners to follow guidelines and standards as well as to adapt to local needs/possibilities. 

You will report to the IT manager on-site in Shanghai and be part of a global infrastructure team supporting you. Your role will also include the following key responsibilities.  


• Together with other technical architects translate architectural designs into implementation plans 
• Ensure services are integrated, delivered and operated as required
