Product Owner

As digital disruption sweeps through the manufacturing industry, we continue our forward-thinking journey to always stay two steps ahead when new technology evolves. Right now, we’re now looking for a Product Owner for our Cybersecurity Technology team within Sandvik IT. Are you a business savvy collaborator with a genuine passion for customer value and engaging collaborations? Then we have an exciting opening for you!

What’s in it for you?
We’re proud of the industry leading position we hold when it comes to cybersecurity, but we’re even more thrilled to offer you a feedback-friendly arena, where people support each other and learn together. You get a lot of freedom to shape your own work and it’s truly developing – both for your own career path and for the balance between work and family life. Simply put, a great place to work!

About the job
You’re one of our key players in ensuring that Sandvik Group has cutting edge cybersecurity products, and you always keep an eye out for any new trends in this field to maintain our momentum as we build our digital defense. The main products included in your scope are:
Endpoint Protection Platform (EPP)
Endpoint Detect & Response (EDR)
Rapid7

You drive the life cycle development and success for all of them by interacting with the business and truly understanding their needs and requirements. Together with our development teams and technical architects, you then coordinate the insights into applicable IT tools. In all of this, you work closely with our suppliers and partners to ensure a roadmap of their products that is developed in line with Sandvik's strategic goals. You also connect with our product management and senior business stakeholders to create products that fit our company portfolio and bring maximum customer satisfaction. Your outlook is both strategic and commercial and you have an inspiring way of communicating, challenging the status quo and creating engagement.
In this position, you’re based in either Gasverket (Stockholm) or Sandviken, however this position allows for some flexible working scheduling. As your colleagues and our partners are spread across different locations, some trips are included.

What we need from you!
Someone with a tactical mindset and smart, agile ways of working. You’re driven by business needs, focus on long term relations and you have what it takes to build successful arenas for great collaboration. You’re an engaged collaborator who enjoys interacting with team members, stakeholders and customers. Naturally, this means that you communicate fluently in English, while knowledge of Swedish is an advantage.
When it comes to your background, we think that a relevant degree – perhaps in IT, Business or Finance – could come in handy, but we’d rather hire you for your soft skills and your customer-centric, can-do attitude. Some experience in product leadership and agile product management methods is of course beneficial. Another plus is knowledge of the cybersecurity area and how to manage IT applications in a manufacturing industry.
