Product Quality Leader

Do you feel energized and motivated with the opportunity to help customers to be more successful and to improve the quality of products and services? If that is something for you, we are currently looking for a Product Quality Leader (PQL) to join our Quality & Customer Satisfaction team in Gothenburg, Sweden.


About The Role


This is a central role in our quality strategy. You will be working together with another five PQLs, taking care of the quality of our most innovative technology, Electromobility, and you will execute most of your work within the issue detection and pre-study areas.
We use different sources of data and information (i.e.: telematics, warranty, market reports, Technical Support, our dealer net, our brands, etc.) to identify quality issues and prioritize them according to their impact to our customers and our business. After that we prepare pre investigations containing technical details about the failure modes and their business impact. Next step is then to support the Product Owners in securing that appropriate corrective actions are taken.
Our typical goals are to identify important quality issues and protect customers as fast as possible. Hopefully we can find and mitigate those even before they become evident to the customers.
As a PQL you will also ensure communication on product quality and customer satisfaction within Volvo GTT and to our stakeholders.


This is you


As we use many different sources of data, you are a structured individual with passion for data analytics and data storytelling. You know how to bring facts from data and you can take decisions based on them.
You are interested in technology and work hard to make tomorrow better than today.
You are a convincing individual with good social skills and are able to build and keep a good network and strong relationships. You enjoy communicating and being the connection between different areas and different levels in the organization.
You show a winning attitude!
You are kind to yourself and your persistence makes you move through obstacles and setbacks to accomplish objectives.
"Lifelong learning" and "knowledge sharing" are characteristics that people use to describe you and you proactively use those skills to acquire new knowledges and help others in the same journey.
You are result-oriented and although you can work independently, you think being a team player is funnier and more rewarding.
