Senior Product Owner (Automotive) IRC275196

Description

The client’s purpose is to make safe and intelligent mobility real, for everyone, everywhere. The company develops the complete software stack for advanced driver assistance systems and autonomous driving, from sensing to actuation. Their focus is to build a single, cutting-edge software platform in order to serve various levels of autonomy and offer unequaled scalability at the same time. The head office is in a major tech hub in Sweden. The client’s first self-driving deployment will be launched on the next-generation vehicle platform from a major car manufacturer.

The company believes that self-driving cars, when a reality, are estimated to reduce fatal car accidents by more than 85%, saving over 50,000 lives from human-error-related accidents each year. They feel this is a goal worth pursuing.

Their mission is powered by a belief that technology, software, tools, and datasets would not mean much without the best people behind them. The team consists of some five hundred of the best engineering minds globally, stationed across two continents, who collaborate with a shared passion: to bring autonomous driving to the streets for real and create a safer journey for everyone. This is part of the client’s culture and how they work, develop, and grow together.

The company has a flexible and modern approach, happy to offer its employees the possibility of a combination of work at the office and from home. Beyond a person’s skillset, they believe a strong mindset will take them even further. With a genuine team-playing attitude and a high feeling of responsibility and thoroughness, individuals can quickly thrive and grow in their roles. The client makes space for ambition and encourages team members to mentor others by sharing their knowledge in software craftsmanship.

They strive for a T-shaped competence profile for all team members, so every member must be open to working on all topics relevant to the team while still fostering their special expertise.
