Configuration Manager (CM) at Combitech in Stockholm

Combitech in Stockholm is looking for a Configuration Manager (CM) with experience in both software and hardware for assignments with one of our defense-oriented clients. Here, you will play a key role in technically complex projects where structure, traceability, and quality are crucial for success.

Your Role as Configuration Manager

As a Configuration Manager, you will be responsible for configuration management (CM) throughout the entire project lifecycle - from the bidding and startup phase to delivery and maintenance. You will develop, establish, and manage CM plans that form a central part of project governance and ensure that agreed processes, routines, and tools are followed.

The role is varied and adapts to the maturity level of the projects. In newly started projects, you will establish working methods for documentation, version control, and change management, creating a solid foundation for the project's continued work.

In more mature projects, you will drive the operational CM work, which includes building and managing product structures together with technical experts, organizing and leading Change Control Boards (CCB), ensuring that product and system configurations are correctly defined, updated, and documented at agreed delivery points, and following up to ensure that governing documents and processes are adhered to.

You will participate in change management forums, contribute to technical reviews, and keep project and program management continuously informed. An important part of the role is also to make CM capabilities visible and strengthen them in the projects, as well as contribute to method development and improvement of working methods and development processes.

The projects are unique customer deliveries, meaning that each project has its own structure and working methods based on the end customer's requirements. The common denominator in all CM work is a focus on risk management, traceability, and delivering consistent and predictable quality to the end customer.

Who Are You?

We are looking for someone with several years of experience in configuration management (CM), either at a strategic level where you have established CM processes in new projects or organizations, or at an operational level with responsibility for version control, change management, and product structures in ongoing projects.

Since the products are of a very high technical level, experience with software and/or electronics is a significant advantage.

We would like you to have experience in organizing and leading Change Control Board meetings and the ability to quickly create an overview of development processes in larger organizations. You are comfortable building and maintaining networks with project managers, technical specialists, and other stakeholders, and you communicate fluently in both Swedish and English, in both speech and writing.

Experience with tools such as Jenkins, IFS, or Doors is a plus, but not a requirement.

As an employee at Combitech, you are attentive, unpretentious, and adaptable. You understand that each organization has its own variations of CM work and use your experience in a situationally adapted way to create the greatest possible value in the assignment.

As the position involves work covered by defense secrecy, you are required to undergo and be approved in a security clearance with background check.

Selection will take place after the application deadline due to the Christmas holiday. We look forward to your application!

Come and Make a Difference

We believe that you do a better job when you can focus on the right things, which is why we make it easy to combine work with everyday life. We invest in our employees, who are the core, brain, and heart of our business. Moreover, we stand on a solid foundation of high technology, research, and job security with the defense and security group Saab as our owner.
