Are you ready to make an impact on the next generation of mining equipment?
We are seeking a Release and Configuration Manager with a strong focus on System Engineering who is eager to push boundaries and optimize the performance, reliability, and efficiency of autonomous machines in a fast-changing industry.
Join our team
We are leading the way towards a smart and sustainable future with our Autonomous drill fleet to complete its mission of drilling safely and productively with minimal to no human intervention. Are you ready to be part of this journey? Join our fantastic team of engineers and play a pivotal role in advancing the Autonomous Mining Technology.
Your Mission
As a Release and Configuration Manager, you will ensure that our software, parameters, and system configurations are planned, verified, documented, and consistently released across platforms and product lines.
You will work at the interface between software engineering, system architecture, product development, and operations, ensuring high-quality releases and a stable configuration baseline.
The role combines technical understanding with coordination and process ownership, rather than full-time hands-on development or system simulation.
Please note that this role does not include people management. The “manager” responsibility refers to managing releases, configurations, and processes rather than leading a team.
Release Management
- Plan, coordinate and execute high-quality software releases for autonomous drilling systems.
- Drive release readiness, documentation, quality assurance compliance, and cross-team alignment.
- Ensure predictable delivery and compliance with Epiroc’s software processes and product standards.
Configuration Management
- Maintain and control configuration baselines and the SW-BOM across complex system landscapes.
- Manage change control, reviews, and traceability for software, documentation, and parameters.
- Ensure data integrity across CM tools and documentation systems (e.g., Git-based tools, PLM, DevOps).
System Engineering (Complementary Responsibilities)
- Contribute to system architecture, functional evaluations, and design proposals.
- Analyze system-level impacts of software and hardware updates.
- Support development, validation, and integration activities across projects.
Collaboration
Work closely with R&D teams, service, production, purchasing, suppliers, marketing, and global customer centers. Drive communication, alignment, and continuous improvement in release and configuration practices. Act as a key link between engineering disciplines in a fast-moving, project-driven environment.
Your Profile
- MSc degree or equivalent engineering background.
- 5+ years of experience in Release Management and Configuration Management or System Engineering or related fields.
- Strong understanding of software/hardware control systems and system-level interactions.
- Solid experience with:
- Software release processes
- Configuration management and version control
- Managing SW-BOMs and release dependencies
- Strong communication, stakeholder-coordination, and internal customer liaison skills.
- Ability to plan, prioritize, and drive workflows independently in a dynamic environment.
- Fluent in English (spoken and written).
Meritorious
- Experience from autonomous vehicles, embedded systems, or heavy equipment.
- Familiarity with simulation, modeling, or system verification.
- Proficiency in Swedish is considered beneficial.
Location and other
The position is based in Örebro, Sweden, with a hybrid way of working.
Application and contact information
We encourage you to submit your application in English through our online career site as soon as possible, but no later than 10th of February 2026.
