What you will do

At Volvo Group Trucks Operations in Skövde, you'll be a key person in the evolution of transportation, contributing significantly to society.

Your role will extend to supporting technicians in projects related to new machine acquisitions and team development, emphasizing process, standards, and work methods. Collaborating with cross-functional teams, contributing to global forums, and potentially participating as a team member for the introduction of new machinery lines will also be part of your duties.

 

By working with, for example, data analysis, machine learning and AI, we are able to work with preventive and demand-driven maintenance, where we become more proactive. By collecting data, this gives us great opportunities to identify early deviations in good time. In this role, you will be involved in the implementation of new technologies in collaboration to increase both productivity and efficiency. In addition, you will actively participate and drive the development of maintenance methods with other engineers, both in networks at the factory in Skövde and at other production units within Volvo.
