Job Description:

At Alstom, we understand transport networks and what moves people. From high-speed trains, metros, monorails, and trams, to turnkey systems, services, infrastructure, signalling and digital mobility, we offer our diverse customers the broadest portfolio in the industry. Every day, 74,000 colleagues lead the way to greener and smarter mobility worldwide, connecting cities as we reduce carbon and replace cars.

Your future role

Take on a new challenge and apply your technical and managerial expertise in a new cutting-edge field. You'll report to hiring manager Erik Simonson (Traction Control Site Manager, phone +46-702-32 10 80) and work alongside a team of control engineers.

You'll manage a team of about 18 engineers working with traction control products and its functionality. The scope covers both supporting order projects and standard control products applied in our traction and auxiliary systems as well as the orchestrating application software. The team is also responsible for developing and maintaining verification and validation activities for the entire traction control department.

Day-to-day, you'll work closely with teams across the business, such as control, system, electronics, and departments working with operating systems and supporting functions. Thus, fostering unpretentious cooperation with others is important.

We'll look to you for:

  • Perform Team Management tasks, maintain close contact with team members, workforce planning, performance management, recruitment, salary reviews, etc.
  • Participate in the Traction Control department leadership team working on visions and strategies, ways of working, and continuous improvement.
  • Participate in the management of the product organization handled by the department.
  • Maintain close contact with technical project leaders to secure deliveries as committed.
  • Develop and maintain relevant competency and skills in the team.

All about you

We value passion, attitude, and experience. That's why we don't expect you to have every single skill. Instead, we've listed some that we think will help you succeed and grow in this role:

  • Degree in Engineering Physics, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Robotics, or equivalent.
  • Multiple years of technical and managerial experience.
  • Genuine interest in coaching, supporting, and developing team members.
  • Ability and interest in leading, developing, and challenging the organization.
  • Knowledge of software safety (IEC61508, ISO26262, etc.) and/or experience from rail applications is an advantage.
  • Familiarity with applying agile methods for software development.
  • Fluent in Swedish and English at a business level is essential for the job.

Things you'll enjoy

Join us on a life-long transformative journey – the rail industry is here to stay, so you can grow and develop new skills and experiences throughout your career. You'll also:

  • Enjoy stability, challenges, and a long-term career.
  • Work with state-of-the-art control functionality for traction and auxiliary systems installed on trains delivered to the global market.
  • Be provided with opportunities to work globally, both through traveling and virtual meetings.
  • Collaborate with transverse teams and helpful colleagues.
  • Contribute to innovative projects.
  • Steer your career in whatever direction you choose across functions and countries.
  • Benefit from our investment in your development through award-winning learning.
  • Benefit from a fair and dynamic reward package that recognizes your performance and potential, plus comprehensive and competitive social coverage (life, medical, pension).

You don't need to be a train enthusiast to thrive with us. We guarantee that when you step onto one of our trains with your friends or family, you'll be proud. If you're up for the challenge, we'd love to hear from you

Important to note

As a global business, we're an equal-opportunity employer that celebrates diversity across the 70+ countries we operate in. We're committed to creating an inclusive workplace for everyone.
