Engineering Manager Software - Stockholm

Job Description

Are you a people-focused engineering leader who wants to help shape a growing R&D site? We are looking for an Engineering Manager within software to our R&D office in Stockholm, where you will lead a team developing the next generation of network video and security solutions.

What is Axis?

At Axis, we've always been about pushing the boundaries in pursuit of innovating for a smarter, safer world. We do this by developing IP-based products and innovations for security and video surveillance. 

Our employees are the driving force of the company and move it forward towards our goal of being number one in our industry. As the global market leader in network video, Axis drives the industry by continually launching innovative network products based on an open platform – delivering high value to our customers. 

We are now looking for an Engineering Manager within software. You and your team will be part of the Multichannel Products department (MCP), focusing on the development of new network video and security solutions. 

Who is your future team?

The Multichannel Products department is part of the Extended Video Products organization within R&D and develops new network based detection products from idea to mass production.

You will lead a team of eleven colleagues to start with – and the team will grow – including engineers within frontend, backend, ux and firmware working with embedded development and software solutions for our products. They work in close collaboration with a range of competence areas such as electronics, mechanics, quality assurance, industrial design, production tests, industrialization and regulatory approvals. 

Around you in the department you will also find technical leads, project managers and line managers, as well as industrial leads, production test engineers, sourcing engineers and quality engineers. Our goal is to run highly efficient product development projects and deliver high-quality products that strengthen Axis' market-leading position. 

What you'll do here as Engineering Manager

You will lead a multidisciplinary team working with product development ranging all the way from idea, through conceptual design, execution phase, industrialization and finally handover to volume production. As our Stockholm site is still growing, you will not only lead the work – you will help shape how it is done. 

• Nurture a culture of openness, trust, freedom, responsibility, quality and pride in what we do and how we act 

• Take responsibility, together with your team, for developing Multichannel Products from idea to production 

• Grow your team's competence and capability, always ensuring people have real opportunities to develop their skills, experience and careers 

• Collaborate with product managers, project leaders and other internal and external stakeholders on priorities, expectations and requirements 

• Engage with the leadership team to set and execute the strategic direction of the department

• Take responsibility for the technical roadmap and requirements connected with your team’s work related to optics, imaging and firmware development

• Create clarity for your team in an evolving environment 

Who are you?

You lead from a people perspective – coaching, giving feedback, identifying development needs and following up. You see the power of a team where people bring different perspectives and experiences.

As a manager at a growing site, you are comfortable when things are not yet fully defined. The role is highly collaborative, so you communicate clearly with a wide range of colleagues and stakeholders inside and outside the organization, and you actively contribute to a good team spirit.

We believe that you have extensive experience of leading people within product development. You have an engineering degree in relevant field and experience from embedded software, optical engineering, imaging or another relevant technical discipline. 

Professional working proficiency in Swedish and English, spoken and written, is required for this role. 

What Axis can do for you

This is an opportunity to be part of building our R&D office in Stockholm. You'll enjoy the advantages of working at a small, agile site while also being part of an exciting, successful organization that is already the world leader in network video.

At Axis Stockholm we are a newer R&D site with 50+ engineers so far. You will be part of creating and maintaining the collaborative atmosphere and can influence how we want to work in our part of Axis.

Here, you'll contribute to meaningful projects that shape the future of security and surveillance — developing solutions used worldwide. As an Engineering Manager you will have great opportunities for development in an organization that values creativity and promotes individual growth.

Your well-being matters to us. We offer a range of benefits, including a company bonus, Friday cake, wellness allowance, health insurance — and even your own Axis bicycle.
