Senior Frontend Developer

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.
Who we are

Our group is developing applications that enable collaboration between the Traton brands within what we call the Product Information Sharing Flow. We provide services to cross-reference parts from different brands, and facilitate the workflow for our external partners. For example, one service we will develop in the coming months will help a bus body manufacturer exchange product information with Scania. We work closely with our colleagues at other groups to understand the business value and develop solutions that work for our customers.

Today, we work within a broader SAFe framework, organised into two agile teams. The two teams consist of a good mix of people with different backgrounds, interests and skills, and are really motivated to learn together to develop further. We are now looking for a Senior Frontend Developer to join one of the teams.

Your profile

When we have discussed the ideal candidate for us, our architect described the person we seek well. She explained it like this:

"We need someone who can work independently when needed, but who can also help the whole team grow by working together, mentoring, and supporting other developers in their development."

As a Senior Frontend Developer in our group, you will lead by example, developing our applications, and you will have a chance to grow within the role to be one of our lead developers.

You should have experience as a frontend developer, working with agile methods. We expect that you bring knowledge of and ability to use front-end frameworks to create responsive web applications. While we use Angular today, we believe that the ideal candidate for us will be someone who can adapt and learn new skills and frameworks, even if not having the deep experience with the frameworks we use today. We provide good opportunities to learn at work, by working with others in the group, participating in formal training prorgams, or working with external Open Source projects.

Furthermore, we expect you to be able to express yourself fluently in English, written as well as spoken.

What we can offer you

As a Scania employee, you have an almost endless variety of future professional development opportunities and great colleagues. Within our group, you will have the possibility to be part of, and shape, our future journey. We recognize each others' contributions, enjoy working together and support each other.

Working at Scania you are offered benefits such as a result based bonus, occupational pension, flexible working hours and lunch at reduced prices. If you live in Stockholm, we offer a direct bus service from Stockholm City, via Liljeholmen to Södertälje, called Scania Job Express. We often work one day a week together in Södertälje but are flexible about when and how to meet each other. For the days when you want to work from home, we provide desks, chairs, and suitable equipment to provide a comfortable and ergonomic work environment.

When you are in the office, you can choose from several different offices, including our activity-based offices with a lot of creative and flexible spaces. We also have an office hub close to the central station in Stockholm that you can use whenever you like. You can also use Scania Go to transport yourself between the different locations using our internal buses or electric bikes.
