Who are we?
Volvo Cars is a company on a mission; to bring traditional car manufacturing into a connected, sustainable and smart future.
Since 1927, we have been a brand known for our commitment to safety, creating innovative cars that make life less complicated for our consumers. In 2010, we decided to transform our business, resulting in a totally new generation of cars and technologies, as well as steady growth and record sales. Today, we’re expanding our global footprint in Europe, China and the US, and we’re on the lookout for new talent.
We are constantly pushing our own skills and abilities to drive change in the automobile industry like never before. We are looking for innovative, committed people to join us in this endeavour and create safe, sustainable and connected cars. We believe in the power of people and will challenge and support you to reach your full potential. Join us and be part of Volvo Cars’ journey into the future.

Test Engineering to our new central platform in future Volvo Car
We imagine that our friends, families, and children are transported in a personal, sustainable and safe way. What we build is a self-driving, fully electric, connected, and super safe Volvo Car. 
We build a new platform. The heart of the platform will be a core computer with the capacity to carry a vast majority of electric control units and applications- a vehicle control unit. In our part of the R&D we code the base software on the computer to refine computational power and to enable successful integration with applications.

The future vehicle with a core computer-in-the-car-architecture- will enable advanced connectivity, machine learning and autonomous drive. 
This is a computer built into the Volvo Car that will transport ourselves and our families around. Quality code is therefore fundamental for us and which is why we are looking forward to welcoming a new colleague with responsibility for:

•    Developing base test case scenario for the other teams to build upon.  
•    Secure our stage of testing, proving quality and compliance to safety regulations.
•    Supporting the development teams in way of using your base test scenario as well as providing guidelines for our test framework.
•    Participate in requirement definition and documentation in test record
We expect you have experience from working as a system tester in a modern SW development environment with a highly automated test framework and continuous integration.  
To be successful in this job we also believe that you have experience from supporting and educating others in using, updating and troubleshooting our tests. You need to have a basic understanding of requirement handling and an interest to work with, and learn how to, prove that our product meet safety standards and reliability requirements.
The team is improving in Scrum and uses this approach to plan the work in two weeks cadence.
Competence in developing code using Python and automotive HIL testing are what you will use in your daily work.
Functional safety/ISO26262 we consider meriting.
We are curious what you think about the future. Would you like to know more about the R&D and the intended roles?
