ABOUT THE POSITION

Are you ready to accelerate your career as a DevOps Engineer in a global, agile team? Join the Monitoring TRATON Collaboration Team, where you will play a key role in maintaining, optimizing, and innovating our infrastructure. You will have hands-on learning and growth opportunities, working within a supportive and inclusive team that values collaboration through mob and pair programming. Your closest manager, who originally started as an I-Talent, understands the journey and is committed to fostering an environment where you can thrive. If you have experience with Grafana, GitLab, AWS, or Python, that’s great, but if not, we value your willingness to learn and grow. We believe that having the right mindset is just as important as technical skills, and we are looking for someone who is proactive, adaptable, and driven by curiosity. A passion for self-driven learning and problem-solving is essential, as you will continuously explore new technologies, troubleshoot complex issues, and innovate solutions that improve our infrastructure.

WE ARE LOOKING FOR YOU WHO

In this recruitment, we will place great emphasis on your personal qualities and your interest in both the position and Scania as a company. Make sure to clearly motivate in your application why you chose to apply! We are looking for committed and talented problem solvers who are happy to come up with new ideas about how things can be improved.
