At Volvo Group Connected Solutions we work at the forefront of connectivity with data from over
1 000 000 Volvo Group customer assets. Together with customers, partners and the Volvo Group we create real value, not only for our customers but also for society at large.


This is us, your new colleagues
As you can imagine, keeping track of over 1 000 000 connected customer assets rolling around the world is indeed a challenge. Now ponder, that vehicles in a few years will be autonomous – and you’ve got the challenge of your life. Our Technology team manages the development and maintenance of our global connectivity platform – and your experience is needed.


We are now looking for a Solution Engineer (a technically skilled System Analyst) within the product area Supporting Services. You are the bridge between customers/stakeholders and the development team, capturing requirements to explain WHAT is needed and WHY. Requirement breakdown is the central part of your daily work, and being product oriented we want to be seen as a partner more than just someone who delivers according to a provided specification. As a Solution Engineer you play a key role, knowing the current system behavior, capturing business needs and recommending new functionality in the system. You will work closely with the architect in the team.


The role
Keeping a constructive and cooperative relation with stakeholders and with other development teams is the basis for your work, which includes these responsibilities:
Lead in delivering the identified solution.
Provide detailed functional and non-functional requirements and specifications for proposed solutions including time and scope involved.
Work closely with Product teams to ensure products and solutions are available and working properly.
Ensure that the solution developed complies with given architecture guidelines, specifications and business partner quality requirements and ensuring the usage of standards, tools and platforms.
Identify and propose solutions and features to fit product.
Solve assigned issues together with the business.
Analyze current technologies used, research best-practices in the field and seek to find cost-effective solutions.



Your profile
Your personality is your major reason for success, but we think you probably have:
A university degree in Software Engineering, Computer Science or similar
Documented experience as Solution Engineer, Business Analyst or System Analyst working with requirement management in an agile manner. Alternatively, you have a solid background as Test Manager (in an agile context) and have a clear ambition to advance in the requirement management area
Experience from the automotive industry and preferably connectivity/telematics
Fluent in English - both written and spoken. Basic skills in Swedish is also preferable



What can we offer you?
You will be part of a team that creates great results through amazing people, strong relationships and a high- performance culture. We are of course using the latest technologies delivering a very modern micro service- based service platform hosted in the cloud. We use agile methods and as we are adopting the DevOps model your work will cover a broad spectrum, all the way from developing prototypes of future world class applications to managing the lifecycle of the existing ones.


Our main hub and headquarter is in Lindholmen Science Park in Gothenburg, a vibrant area that lives and breathes new technology like IoT, autonomous driving, electro mobility and digitalization.
