What will you do?

You will be a key developer and driver within our System Analysis team, with the potential of becoming a team lead/architect.

The team is diving into areas and system-wide issues, which other parts of the organization have a hard time solving. The team is working in various domains, including performance optimization, traceability and visualization, and the creation of a crash dump analysis pipeline. The team makes great contributions and aims to elevate the well-being and performance of our platform.

Our department (in Lund) at large is working with many different areas from car feature development, SW architectural design, SW build tools & CI pipelines, and system analyses. The teams are working in an agile way, with great independence, ownership, and trust. We have a warm and relaxed atmosphere where you will be an important contributor to the team. Our software will run on emulators as well as hardware rigs and finally the car itself. You will build the next generation of Volvo cars.
