The opportunity
The Digital Lead plays a key role in the company's digital transformation journey. As part of a newly established function, this is a unique opportunity to join early and help shape how digitalization is done in practice. Together with the team, you drive, coordinate, and realize digital initiatives that create real value across both production and administrative functions. Acting as a bridge between business, IT and external partners, you help turn digital strategy into practical improvements that make every day work smarter and more efficient.
This is an operational and broad role where you move between analysis, coordination, hands-on execution, and close collaboration with the business. You will be encouraged to test ideas, explore new technologies (including AI), and turn concepts into working solutions. The role combines drive, curiosity, a holistic perspective, and a strong focus on solving real problems in day-to-day operations
The role reports to the Digital Transformation Manager and is part of a small, cross-functional digital team with a wide area of responsibility. You will work closely with operations and collaborate across functions such as engineering, production, logistics, sales, continuous improvement and support teams -helping to build the future way of working together.
How you´ll make an impact
Turn everyday pain points into "wow, that's easier" moments - you'll spot bottlenecks in production/office work and help turn them into smart digital improvements people actually use.
Go from idea → prototype → real working solution - you'll coordinate initiatives end-to-end and help embed them into daily routines.
Get hands-on (because impact beats PowerPoints) - you'll jump into config, data handling, testing, and simple programming when needed to move fast.
Run "AI mini-pilots" with the team - we want to experiment, learn quickly, and scale what works (think practical AI that improves flow, quality, decisions and daily work).
Be the connector that makes collaboration smooth - you'll bridge operations, IT and external partners so we build the right thing, the right way.
Help grow digital confidence in the organization - you'll share learnings, inspire new ways of working and help build real digital momentum.
Your background
Ideally 2+ years of relevant experience (digitalization, production/industrial engineering, IT, data/BI, automation)
You enjoy working in the sweet spot between people, process, and tech - and can communicate with both "business" and "tech" stakeholders.
You have a hands-on, experimental mindset - you like testing ideas, iterating, and making things real (programming curiosity/experience is a big plus).
You bring a solid foundation in IT systems / digital applications that support business processes (and you're not afraid of learning new tools).
Bonus if you've been close to manufacturing / industrial processes - but what matters most is curiosity and the ability to learn the environment fast.
You're a team player with a growth mindset - ambitious, collaborative, quick to learn and comfortable asking questions and trying again.
What we offer
Collective agreement
Flexible working time
Health care and wellness allowance
Fantastic career possibilities within Hitachi Energy both within Sweden and globally
Mentor to support you throughout onboard phase
Various trainings and education supporting employee development
