Together, we thrive in our friendly, open, and collaborative culture and inspire each other to think beyond the expected. United by our commitment to inclusion, diversity, and sustainability, we consistently seek to develop our skills and way of working.

Are you a hands‑on leader with a passion for technology, industrial systems, and people? Do you enjoy building strong engineering teams and driving continuous improvement in a high‑tech manufacturing environment? At Axis, you'll lead a team responsible for developing and maintaining the advanced equipment that powers the production of world‑leading network video products. We are now looking for a Hardware Manager to join Production Engineering & Technology (PET) at our headquarters in Lund.

You will lead a team of 12 engineers working across mechanical and electronics development, focused on the machines and systems that power Axis production. This includes everything from optical alignment solutions to other advanced manufacturing equipment. The systems you’ll work with often combine motion, control, and precision — motors, sensors, and electrical cabinets are central building blocks.

The team uses Creo for mechanical development, Windchill for documentation and E‑plan for electrical design. You’ll work closely with software, QA, and industrialization teams, playing an important role in shaping how we develop and improve our production capabilities.

As part of the PET management team, you collaborate with managers, product owners, and project leaders to align priorities, drive improvements, and ensure our global manufacturing runs smoothly.

What will you do?

• Set direction, goals, and priorities for the group
• Drive continuous improvement in tools, processes, and ways of working
• Coach and develop your team
• Resource planning, recruitment, and performance management
• Budget responsibility and delivery follow‑up
• Contribute to the broader PET management agenda

Who are we looking for?

We’re looking for a structured and pragmatic leader who combines technical curiosity with a genuine interest in developing people. You create clarity, build trust, and know how to engage a team around common goals. At the same time, you are comfortable making decisions, driving change, and challenging established ways of working when needed. You bring a solid technical foundation and know how to create structure and momentum in a team.

• A degree in mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, mechatronics, or similar
• Several years of experience leading hardware or cross‑functional engineering teams
• Experience from industrial systems involving electronics, mechanics, and motion
• Familiarity with tools such as Creo, PLM systems like Windchill, E‑plan or Xpedition
