Embedded SW Application Engineer for Emission Control

Volvo Group’s mission is to drive prosperity through transport solutions. Our customers bring goods to every corner of the world and people to their workplaces or families. But with increasing transportation comes the need to minimize the environmental impact through high-tech innovations. Working with emissions and aftertreatment-system is an important brick in this puzzle.
 
This is us, your new colleagues:
The Exhaust AfterTreatment System (EATS) department is responsible for the global platform development of exhaust aftertreatment systems for Volvo Group’s products around the world.
We develop hardware as well as the features and functionalities. We are accountable for the lifecycle management of our products, from advanced engineering, through product development into the maintenance phase.
Our group, EATS control, is responsible for all the software functions in the aftertreatment system. With new concepts, new CO2-demands and emission legislation, our group develops new innovative emission control solutions.
We are also cutting edge with new control strategies such as model based control, predictive control, machine learning and making use of vehicle connectivity.
With our understanding of the real-life performance of the EATS system in our customers operation, we will design the best solutions for robust and effective functionalities.

Work description:
As a software application engineer you will be part of many aspects of development and implementation of embedded software functions.
You and the team will understand the legal and customer requirements, will design and implement a robust software solution and do the verification of the logic. The work involves the entire chain; from early concept development with new innovative control strategies to maintaining our functionality in our production fleet.
A working day can be both software development in front of the computer, as well as driving a truck, testing your developed functionality!  
We work in agile teams of 5-7 colleagues with complementary skills committed to a common purpose. Every team plan their work in 3 week sprints and deliver solutions together as a team. We mostly use the graphical programing tool, Simulink/Targetlink, but knowledge in m-scripting, and C programming is useful to understand and improve our software architecture and testing framework. 

Responsibilities and tasks will be:
Analyze, design and implement EATS control strategies in software using Targetlink (Matlab/Simulink)
Verify EATS control strategies and also develop verification tests
Participate in system engineering work supporting the EATS product, together with Quality and Customer Satisfaction, Calibration- and Aftermarket Engineers
Analyze, provide feedback and develop procedures and processes, e.g. for automated and manual verification tests or for software function development

Who are you?
To be successful in this position you should be a team player and have a solution oriented attitude. You are communicative, have very good technical skills and are curious about learning new things. You focus on quality and can be part of our development towards improved verification methods.  
We believe that you possess following skills and competencies:
Previous experience in embedded SW-development
Fluent in English, both spoken and written
Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Mechatronics, Applied physics Chemistry or comparable
A plus if you have previous experience from the automotive industry

What can we offer you?
We can offer you an exciting and global working environment which will give you valuable experience that will contribute to your future development within the Volvo Group. You will influence the development of our future products.

Our CEO Martin Lundstedt often says that “going to work should be fun for real”. We think that too! Therefore we organize “hack days” every 10 weeks where everyone can spend time on their own project for competence development, develop new things or improve our development environment. We also have social activities to get to know each other.
Your manager will be supporting you in your personal development. There are a lot of career opportunities in different areas within Volvo, both internationally and in Sweden. We will prepare you for your next step when you are ready.
 
Are we a perfect match?
Volvo Group is one of the world’s leading manufacturers of trucks, buses, construction equipment and marine and industrial engines. When joining us you will be a part of the biggest technology shift in the transport industry in decades, with our innovative products we make our customers win. We want you to be in the front seat. Do you want to join us on our future journey?
