At Sandvik Group IT we’re currently looking for a Solution Engineer to our Core Application and Platform Operations. Welcome to a dynamic and developing environment where collaboration is the key!

About your job

As our Solution Engineer, you play a key role in transforming business requirements into IT solutions – offering technical guidance to the product team to ensure alignment with goals and strategies.
