Android Software Developer

The On-Board Telematics (OBT) is a global department within GTT Vehicle Engineering, established to secure connected vehicles supporting the increasing demand for connected services and in-vehicle entertainment functions, within the Volvo Group. Connectivity is a key enabler for fleet management, uptime services and advanced vehicle services as driver assistance and fuel reduction, targeting reduced costs as well as increased revenues. The telematics and entertainment components build a global platform utilized by the brands within the Volvo Group.
The products developed at GTT have a complex functionality, which is divided into a set of independent E2E (End-to-End) functions. When developing the E2E functions at OBT, we strive for a balance between commonality and brand distinction. This requires careful communication and coordination with different stakeholders such as Product Planning, Brand representatives and other Engineering departments.
OBT department develops and verifies embedded systems that integrate with the vehicle electronic architecture and the telematics back office systems. You will join a tight team of highly skilled engineers, well organized with colleagues in US, Brazil and India.
OBT is looking for talented and committed Android Software Developers contributing to our present development of our next generation of telematics software platform as well as development of new connected and entertainment services.
