R&D Manager

We’re looking for an R&D Manager to co-lead one of our development departments at CPAC Systems. If you’re excited by technology, comfortable with complexity and genuinely enjoy helping both people and ideas grow this could be your next step.

CPAC Systems develops advanced control systems for marine and industrial applications. Since 1999, we’ve been turning complex operations into intuitive experiences. From drive-by-wire to intelligent automation, we work at the intersection of safety, efficiency and user experience. We are proudly part of Volvo Group where our role is to lead advanced technology development and explore the next generation of smart control systems.

The Role

You’ll lead a group of highly skilled engineers working on cutting-edge product development. This is a hands-on leadership role where you’ll work both strategically and operationally: coaching people, managing projects, solving technical problems and shaping how we work.

Responsibilities

• Leading a cross-functional development team and being part of their daily work
• Driving product development within both software and hardware, from idea to delivery in customer projects
• Coaching engineers and building a team that thrives
• Taking ownership of delivery, quality and budget
• Making sure we work smart, continuously improving our methods and processes
• Collaborating with other leaders to align tech, organization and business goals
• Being part of a project team yourself to stay close to the technology

Key Qualifications

You probably have a background in software, embedded systems or systems engineering. You’ve worked in product development and you’ve led people in a technical environment. You like digging into the details but never lose sight of the bigger picture.

• Has experience in product development, ideally within embedded or software-heavy systems
• Enjoys technical problem-solving and isn't afraid to challenge the status quo
• Is confident in your leadership: listens, supports, drives motivation
• Communicates clearly and builds trust across teams
• Thinks long-term and makes decisions with both people and product in mind

Why CPAC Systems?

• You’ll work on real tech that makes a real difference for real users
• You’ll be part of a collaborative, curious and driven team
• You’ll get the freedom to explore, question, build and improve
• You’ll join a company that combines the agility of a tech firm with the muscle of a world-leading industry group
