BATTERY PRODUCTION P&L – Product Development Engineer

Scania is now undergoing a transformation from being a supplier of trucks, buses and engines to a supplier of complete and sustainable transport solutions.

Dedicated to a sustainable future
The electrification trend within the automotive business is moving rapidly. For P&L this means that we need to prepare for ramping up production of electrical vehicles and help Scania become more sustainable. One major component in an electrical vehicle is the battery. Therefore we are investing in production lines for battery production.

For us within the Battery Production Unit it is important to secure a product introduction according to Scania’s principles and core values. In order to do so we are currently installing a pre series line for the next generation of batteries and in parallel building the full capacity production lines as a next phase. Next generation batteries are developed in close collaboration with R&D designers and since it is a new developing product we need to work in a process where we can verify both product and process changes before we introduce it in production. We strongly believe that key factors for success in this area is through a tight partnership with both production and R&D designers, in combination with utilization of digital tools. Therefore we are now looking for a product development engineer to develop together with us in our journey of digitalisation.
