Product Leader

The crisp morning air fills you with energy as you pass the gates to the Volvo site. Approaching the office building, you take a quick glance at a row of parked test trucks, shimmering in the morning sun.
The beautiful line up of vehicles wake up some good memories from your past work weeks.

You remember the excitement you felt when leading a cross-functional SW team to quickly nail down a root cause to a fault found during a recent system test. Thanks to your ability to listen to the involved engineers and coach them in the problem analysis, you manage to secure the function to be delivered in time. You also recall the great feedback you got from a group of Product Owners, when you presented a functional plan for our next important truck introduction. They really appreciated your way of connection activities in their backlog to important product milestones, which helped them to prioritize and plan their tasks for the coming weeks.

The nice memories, in combination with the cold temperature outside, sends some good shivers down your spine and your lips forms slowly into a proud smile. You open the door to the office and step inside.
This day will be awesome!
