Solution Architect

Do you want to join an industry leader within cybersecurity and drive important, cutting-edge projects within the field? Then we have the perfect opening for you!
To stay ahead of the game, Sandvik IT are right now transforming the Cybersecurity organization from a small department to a state-of-the-art resilience center – an enabler for our global, tech-savvy business. We’re now looking for a Solution Architect for Endpoint Protection (EPP) and Endpoint Detect & Response (EDR) to join us – someone who’s a flexible collaborator with a positive mindset, passion for change and a curiosity for innovations and improvements.

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
Close collaboration with stakeholders and suppliers gives this role a dynamic vibe – as you work to find appropriate technology, solve technical issues, and look at ways to make the most out of our cybersecurity activities. You create and improve the technical design and function of current products and services by staying updated on what’s buzzing. New tech often raises questions and a need to search for answers, and you process incoming tickets from the business and make our daily operations logical. Simply put, you’re a key player in contributing to a successful, agile and service-oriented organization for IT product delivery within the Sandvik Group.
Other tasks included in this role are:
Creating and managing the design and lifecycle of our EPP service and products in partnership with key suppliers and partners
Developing and anchoring technical roadmaps for EPP, including different components
Validating the quality and design of solutions suggested by suppliers and partners
Working with the service architect and the service owner to ensure that the right technology underpins business demand appropriately
Driving architectural standards to meet technical and business requirements
Supporting in development of new and existing services
Driving projects related to EPP

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!
As much as we truly value your customer-centric, can-do attitude, you obviously need previous experience in the field, and to thrive in this role we see that you have:
A solid background as a solution architect, most likely within cybersecurity and beneficially also with a proven technical aptitude in EPP and EDR
Good understanding of technical products and components, and an ability to evaluate, future proof and apply them for service effect
An ability to lead and co-ordinate technical development and maintenance of products or services

Experience from an international, complex organization with multiple stakeholders and suppliers, lots of requirements and shifting needs is beneficial. You easily connect with people and build trusting relations, and you’re skilled in explaining technical information in ways that make sense for everyone. Naturally, this means that you communicate fluently in English, while knowledge of Swedish is an advantage.
