Solution Architect to focus on Continuous Improvement

For Sandvik Coromant and our Digital Platform team in Gimo, we’re now looking for a structured and curious Solution Architect to engage in our work with Industry 4.0. Someone with a passion for technology, manufacturing, and teamwork, who’s eager to join an exciting company with many opportunities for both personal and professional growth!


Sandvik Coromant in Gimo is a great place to work, just a short stop from cities like Uppsala, Stockholm and Gävle. We’re a market-leading manufacturer of products for metal cutting. Globally we employ many brilliant minds and we’re proud to create solutions that truly shape the future of manufacturing. Joining us, you’ll become the center of the circle of a small and competent team where you lead and inspire us to an even brighter future!


About the job
Big data is collected from machine and process equipment, facilities, sensors, other systems just to name a few sources of information. This needs to be modeled and presented to other systems and stakeholders as base for our journey to continuously become more efficient and building the factory of the future. Joining us as Solution Architect within the area of Industry 4.0 for continuous improvement and machine analytics, you’re responsible for design, development and maintaining the strategies in the area. As part of this process, you create and sustain roadmaps, information models and guidelines while you proactively develop new solutions based on state-of-the-art technology in order to meet future demands.


In our production flows, we’re mostly using automatic processes and robots – all the way from managing raw materials to finalized product – and some production cells are run completely without any human interaction. It’s an environment that places great demands on connectivity and information management between our software and cloud architecture and machine connectivity, but also creates important benefits in analytics, accuracy, efficiency, and economy.


We offer flexibility, although you need to spend time in Gimo on a weekly basis as you work in close collaboration with our on-site production teams, internal stakeholders and take part in development projects.


Some travel is normally also included in the job.


About you
We're looking for a detailed and visionary Solution Architect. Your background is formed within automation, maintenance, engineering, or similar - and is backed by a relevant academic degree or the corresponding work experience. You've gained a deep understanding of production IT and automation connected to the industry. At Sandvik Coromant, we act on a global scene and you need to be fluent in English and confident speaking and writing professionally.


To genuinely enjoy this role, you must feel confident about being in the center of attention. Showing inspiring leadership qualities – you thrive when having people listen to your innovative solutions. You influence all stakeholders to think from different perspectives and using your excellent communication skills to get people in the loop. You demonstrate an analytical approach, always eager to explore the details to find new ways of doing things. And as a true team player, you understand the importance of collaboration. In this role, you have the chance to make a real impact, pushing us to think one step ahead – always with quality and consistency in mind!


We believe that our diversities lead to a successful business environment, and we’re looking forward to meeting you. Meanwhile, if you want to know more about Sandvik Coromant, we recommend a visit on our website, LinkedIn or Facebook page.
