Development Engineer to Customized Truck Development

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

Are you a graduate engineer, or equivalent, in Integrated Product Design, Mechanical Engineering, Vehicle Engineering, or similar and have experience in development and/or production? Do you have good knowledge about the whole truck and you are interested in, and able to see, the broader picture? 

Customized solutions for trucks are an important and growing area where Scania aims to fulfill specific customer demands and enter new segments and markets.

The section RSM is responsible for the development of customized trucks in areas from alternative fuels and electrification to specialized applications such as mining, heavy haulage, and fire trucks. Everything we do starts with a direct customer request.

At RSM we strive for a work environment where we help and trust each other and where all skills and experiences are utilized in the best way possible. We offer a healthy and inspiring workplace with plenty of opportunities for you to develop and progress in your career.

About the team
The team that you will be working in is a small group of highly motivated development engineers from three different groups within the section: RSMU, RSMC, and RSMP. The focus within the team is on ensuring compliance so that the customized products we supply meet international product legal requirements.

RSMU delivers customized solutions for the urban and long haulage segments and RSMC is specialized in solutions for the construction segment. RSMP is responsible for larger development projects. The adaptations that we do are results of direct customer requests and utilize Scania’s modular system.

Your assignment
You will work with legal investigations of customer requests and specify and describe the legal limitations of our adaptations in the product description system. The team is monitoring new legal demands, which they have the responsibility to interpret and analyze to be able to recommend which actions to be taken to fulfill them. Within the team, you will have the chance to take part in creating and developing work processes and methods as well as integrating the team within the organization.  We have a high focus on long-term solutions and we are striving for an effective way of working to ensure high-quality products.

The team act as a link between the technical solution and the legal requirements. We have the responsibility for the whole vehicle and for a high variety of products. Therefore our work requires close collaboration within our department, sales & marketing, R&D, and the regulation & standards organization. Due to the high complexity, we aim to tackle our challenges together and to spread our knowledge within our team and the organization.

The extent of the tasks you will handle can vary from known adaptations where you can process several per day to new adaptations that require deeper and longer investigation. The spread in scope and complexity creates great possibilities for you to develop your competence. The knowledge you will accumulate about Scania’s products and processes will make you attractive for other positions within the company.

Your Profile
You are a person that takes initiative, enjoys learning new things, and likes to work with varying tasks. You are good at creating team spirit and have the ability to share experiences and information with your colleagues in a generous way. The work is highly collaborative which demands skills in communication and cooperation. As a person you are flexible and you can change direction quickly due to changing market demands, but you also thrive with complex tasks. You are also willing to step out of your comfort zone and try new challenges and new areas.

You are a graduate engineer, or equivalent, in Integrated Product Design, Mechanical Engineering, Vehicle Engineering or similar. You have experience of development and/or production.

Most likely you have good knowledge about the whole truck and you are interested in, and able to see, the broader picture. Knowledge about Scania’s products and the modular system as well as certification is highly meriting. Work experience from similar positions and tools such as OAS is also meriting.

If this sounds interesting don't hesitate to apply. We are interviewing continuously.
