Are you looking for a creative and stimulating job with enthusiastic and highly skilled colleagues? Would you like to be a key player within transmission development? In addition, you will have the possibility to contribute to the future sustainable transport solutions together with us. We stand in front of challenging demands and are now creating new products, conventional powertrains as well as electrified.


If you want to be a part of this, please join us at Volvo Group!


This is us, your new colleagues

Transmission Simulation and System Design is a group with 20 engineers, within the Driveline department at Group Trucks Technology. The Swedish organization has worldwide product platform responsibility for Heavy-Duty Powertrains, electric and conventional, and of the installation in European Volvo products. We participate in all stages of the product cycle – from advanced engineering to industrial development and maintenance.


Our group is responsible for transmission analyses within many different areas: FEA, 1D flow, 1D mechanical, CFD, as well as system layout and gear design. Within the FEA area we perform simulations to optimize durability, weight, and noise/vibration to support our HW design teams and in order to bring our customers world-class products.

At driveline you will be working at a department that in addition to hardware design also includes verification and workshop, NVH testing including noise chamber, and software design. We work together with both the vehicle assembly plants as well as our own gearbox factories. It gives a unique opportunity to work with all aspects of the world renowned I-shift gearbox and to be part of shaping our future.


Role description

As a Principal Simulation Engineer, you will plan, lead and perform structural dynamic simulations of our driveline systems and components. You will be involved in the design and analysis of new concepts and technologies.


You will be responsible and drive the method and tool development in your field and collaborate with universities and external institutes. It is also important for you to be in close contact with our physical verification team to correlate models. Your experience will also provide important input to Product and System Roadmaps. In your role you will train and mentor less experienced colleagues.


Who are you?

To be successful in your new role we believe you have the following skills/experience:

  • Master of Science or higher in Mechanical Engineering with focus on Applied Mechanics or equivalent
  • More than 10 years of experience of Powertrain analysis from product development within automotive industry or research
  • Several years of work experience within CAE and dynamics, preferably in the tools Abaqus, ANSA and ROMAX
  • Knowledge in acoustic simulations is a strong merit, as well as experiences of physical NVH testing
  • Programming competence in Matlab or Python is seen as an asset
  • C/CE driving license is seen as a merit (if not, you will have the opportunity to take it)
  • Fluent in English, written and spoken

We think that you have a genuine technical interest, especially in mechanical systems. You need to be able to work both independently and in cross functional teams. You need to have the ability to explain your results and conclusions in a structured and pedagogical way to your colleagues and stakeholders. As an experienced CAE engineer, you are a natural go-to person.
