Responsibilities

Coordinate the integration of mechanical, electrical, and software subsystems for new and existing rotary drill products. Ensure all subsystems (PLC-based controls, hydraulics, structural components, etc.) work together seamlessly, identifying and resolving interface issues early in the development cycle

Develop and implement system-level test strategies for product validation. Oversee the creation of test plans, test cases, and procedures to verify that integrated systems meet design specifications and safety standards. Manage both lab-based testing and field trials (e.g. prototype evaluations at mine sites) to validate performance under real-world conditions

Lead a team of engineers. Provide mentorship, set priorities, and foster a collaborative culture focused on quality and continuous improvement. Drive team efforts to meet project milestones and product release deadlines

Oversee troubleshooting and root-cause analysis for any system-level issues that arise during integration or testing. Guide the team in diagnosing complex problems that span multiple domains (mechanical, electrical, software) and drive timely resolutions and design improvements

Uphold Sandvik’s safety and quality standards. Demonstrate respect and commitment to the IMS system (ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015 and ISO 45001:2018) taking accountability for its effectiveness and continued improvements. Ensure all testing follows Zero Harm safety practices and that any incidents or hazards during testing are addressed. Verify that products meet relevant industry standards and regulatory requirements through proper test documentation and analysis

Work closely with product design engineers, software developers, and project managers in the Product Development & Management department. Ensure integration and testing considerations are built into the product development process (e.g. participate in design reviews and sprint planning to represent integration/test needs)

Stay abreast of the latest tools and methodologies for system integration and testing. Introduce best practices such as test automation, simulation, and Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) testing where appropriate to improve test coverage and efficiency. Champion a culture of continuous improvement in integration processes, testing methods, and team competencies

Proven ability to oversee multi-disciplinary system integration and develop effective test strategies for complex machinery

Excellent troubleshooting and root-cause analysis skills

Strong project management abilities – adept at planning, organizing, and delivering integration and testing activities on time

Effective leader with experience building and motivating engineering teams

Strong communicator who can coordinate cross-functional efforts and clearly convey technical information and project status to diverse stakeholders

Demonstrated ability to work across departments (Design, R&D, Product Management, Field Service) to achieve common goals

Preferred

Master's degree is a plus

Professional certifications such as Project Management Professional (PMP), Certified Test Manager (ISTQB CTAL), or relevant Six Sigma/quality certifications are desirable, but not required

Experience in the mining equipment sector or heavy mobile machinery is highly valued, with an understanding of the environmental and operational conditions of mining or construction sites

Familiarity with product lifecycle management tools (e.g., Teamcenter), test automation frameworks, and simulation/HIL (Hardware-in-the-Loop) testing setups

Exposure to safety standards (ISO/IEC) for machinery and experience with field testing and commissioning of equipment is a plus
