Our values – customer first, respect, team spirit, responsibility, and elimination of waste – are at the heart of everything we do.

Role Summary

Traton is in the middle of transforming how we deliver workshop tools and services across multiple brands. As part of this journey, we are now looking for a dedicated UX Lead to help build and champion a user-centered design culture within the the Workshop Suite product family.

In this role, you will work closely with our external UX team (currently embedded in our product teams), as well as with product owners, system architects and developers.

You will take responsibility for understanding user needs across brands and contexts, and ensuring that these insights are reflected in our design, development and strategy. You will also play a key part in shaping a long-term UX strategy for the workshop suite and the broader ecosystem — driving consistency, usability and value across our suite of tools.

Job Responsibilities

• Translate user needs into actionable requirements and support product owners in refining the backlog with a user-centric perspective.
• Collaborate closely with the external UX team to align research, interaction design and validation activities across development teams.
• Be an active contributor in strategic and visionary work — bringing the user’s voice into roadmaps, concepts and priorities.
• Work side-by-side with system and business architects to include usability and design thinking in architectural decisions.
• Communicate UX insights to stakeholders across the organization and help drive user advocacy in product planning and governance.
• Safeguard quality in user journeys and UX deliverables in collaboration with teams during implementation.
• Lead and maintain an overarching UX strategy for the workshop suite and connecting brands — driving consistency and cross-brand alignment.

Who You Are

We are looking for a skilled UX professional with a strong background in UX design, service design, or product design—ideally gained in complex system environments. You are experienced in facilitating cross-functional collaboration and aligning UX goals with both business and technical needs.

Confident in driving user research, you know how to synthesize insights and translate them into both strategic direction and hands-on improvements. You thrive in hybrid environments with multiple stakeholders, brands, and tools, and you are comfortable working across abstraction levels—from conceptual frameworks to detailed interface feedback.

Proactive, structured, and passionate, you are motivated by the opportunity to improve the user experience at scale. Fluency in English is required, while Swedish is considered a plus.

Meriting Experiences

• Experience leading or mentoring other designers or design teams.
• Understanding of developer workflows and collaboration in agile/DevOps teams.
• Knowledge of accessibility standards, UX maturity models, or design systems.
• Familiarity with Traton/Scania service processes and workshop tooling is a plus.

We welcome applicants from all backgrounds – your unique experience and perspectives is valuable to us.
