Want to be part of transforming road freight – for good? Einride is showing the world a new way to move, based on the latest digital, electric and autonomous technologies. Through our offering – freight capacity as a service – we enable businesses around the world to accelerate towards their sustainability goals.
Founded in 2016, Einride became the first company in the world to deploy a cab-less autonomous electric vehicle on a public road (Sweden, 2019). In 2022, we were the first to successfully operate such a vehicle on a US public road. Today, we are a team of more than 500 people, and our award-winning technology is being deployed across 8 countries (and counting). Our clients include some of the world’s biggest shippers, including Fortune 500 companies.
We are looking for an energetic and deeply-technical software manager who is passionate about leading a team of experienced software engineers and helps building up and maturing our autonomous driving software stack. As Vice President for Autonomous Driving Software at Einride, you will join our senior leadership team and you will have the opportunity to lead and drive change together with other ambitious, innovative and product-focused people who all challenge conventional thinking, think big, and aim high.
At Einride everyone is responsible for their work end to end, from development to production. As one of our central leadership team members, you will help us to improve developer happiness, foster our fearless development culture and lead by example.

You will:

  • Lead a large and diverse team of software, algorithm and platform developers
  • Guide, lead and challenge your team to become a world-class software development organization
  • Drive our goals to automate software quality assurance to the highest possible level
  • Be the main stakeholder for all autonomous software stack related topics

We expect you to:

  • Come from a strong automotive software background, ideally in the robotaxi or autonomous delivery/freight domain
This is a full-time position based in Gothenburg or Stockholm. We recommend that you submit your application as soon as possible since selection and interviews are held continually.
Please note that as part of our standard recruitment process, we conduct a background control on the final candidate for this role. This may include verification of education, employment history, any relevant professional certifications or other information that may be of our interest.
At Einride, we are innovators, building solutions the world has never seen before – but urgently needs. That’s why we take action, and it’s why we are always eager to be challenged. We know that our best innovations come from having a diverse mix of people, including those of different experiences, career paths, and walks of life. By coming together and sharing our perspectives openly – by disagreeing, discussing, and committing – we deliver greater impact.
