We are committed to be a driving force in the transition to efficient, fossil-free, and safe means of transport. Great progress is achieved by connecting great people, because together, we shape the world we want to live in.   

  

At Volvo Group Connected Solutions, we believe that connectivity is the key to making a difference. With vast amounts of data, we are pushing boundaries for what connectivity can do in a transforming industry.  

 

The Position

As Data Engineer in the Data Foundation team, you will be part of the Data, Analytics & AI organization which is an integral part in driving the transformation of the Volvo Group into a data driven culture. Here you will be creating and managing deliveries for Advanced Analytics, Machine Learning and AI to provide value in the form of data-centric services to both our colleagues in Connected Solutions and across the Group. 
 

In collaboration with Data Analysts and Data Scientists, you will facilitate data exploration and advanced analytics activities by processing, cleaning and structuring data which will be used for insight generation, dashboards, and AI models in operation. We are a team that work together for continuous improvement, whereas you will be part in driving advancements in data acquisition, testing, tooling, and automation to enhance data delivery and quality. You may be involved in performing analysis on internal or external data sets and processes to help answer business questions and identify efficiency improvement opportunities.
 

As part of the Data Foundation team, you will develop new and provide runtime support for existing data pipelines, using a modern data stack built around the Python and SQL. For more senior applicants, there are opportunities to focus on leading your colleagues in projects or be part of our project portfolio discussions to further expand your experience and skillset. You will also have opportunity to be contributing with input to the technology roadmap and future direction of the team.

What we can offer you

Here you get an opportunity to work together with highly skilled colleagues in an exciting, global environment. As part of the Data, Analytics & AI organization, you will be working alongside experienced Data Engineers, Data Scientists, and Data Analysts, allowing for great opportunities to share knowledge and collaborate.
 

We also put emphasis on having a good time at work, actively seeking out projects that motivate us and enable us to grow our skills. We regularly organize fun activities, both during and after work, and always strive to create a positive work environment. We are also committed to promoting long-term wellbeing through a healthy work-life balance, as we believe that a happy and healthy team is essential to achieving success in all areas.
 

Being based in Lindholmen Science Park in Gothenburg, you will work in the heart of a vibrant area that lives and breathes new technology like IoT, autonomous driving, electromobility and digitalization. We employ a hybrid working setup, combining the benefits of physical meetings with the flexibility of working remotely.

Your profile

We are looking for a Data Engineer experienced in developing and maintaining robust data pipelines on high performing data lake solutions in a cloud environment. We expect you to be an expert in working with Spark and SQL, have extensive working knowledge of databases and are comfortable in working with large unstructured datasets.
 

Deeper knowledge and experience with AWS data stack such as S3, Lambda, Glue, Athena, Kinesis, Step Functions, and Lake Formation is premiered. Since we are also looking into a data lake house solution (Databricks) to further improve our capabilities, such experience is considered a plus as well. To top things off, you should also feel comfortable with working in a Devops environment utilizing Github and infrastructure as code (such as Terraform or AWS CDK) together with above mentioned tools to deploy data pipelines through our centralized CI/CD solution.
 

As a person we believe you are an analytical, structured, and innovative team-player that loves problem solving and working together to solve complex challenges. We hope that you are communicative and would like to put your technical expertise to use in collaboration with cross-functional teams to accelerate data to value creation. We warmly welcome candidates who are motivated to facilitate their own end-to-end deliveries by effectively managing business and technical stakeholder needs and requirements in addition to their Data Engineering work. Additionally, we believe that you have a higher education in a relevant field and are keen on learning and staying up to date with the latest trends within the profession. 
 

As the position is based in Gothenburg, Sweden, we require you to hold a valid work permit for Sweden (if not an EU citizen).
