I’m working almost 8 years for Hyva where I’ve spent most of my time in the development of digital solutions for our tipper market. Hyva has a clear and ambitious vision in digitalizing and automation of their products, and it feels great to be part of that. No day is the same and the diversity of components and activities where I’m working with in the day-to-day business is enormous. That really makes the job exciting and challenging.

During my Hyva career I worked with very enthusiastic teams, and I’ve got great opportunities to grow in my personal development. Hyva really invests in the development of their employees. I experience working within Hyva as informal with convenient interactions across departments which makes Hyva a great place to work!
