Hardware designer - HIL

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 interested in developing your career into electronics design?

The group "Hardware Test Platform", EPTH, is responsible for the design and build of the hardware in the HIL (Hardware in the Loop) test platform. The HIL platform is used to perform integration tests of the complete vehicle’s electrical system. Our new concept FlexHIL is scalable for many test levels. This means that the same HW that was designed to the complete vehicle testing could be used as well for single ECU testing.

Since we support integration of all systems in the vehicle, this position offers a unique overview and insight in all development within embedded systems at Scania.

The group consists of 6 employees and an additional group of consultants formed by 8 people.

Your task

This role is focusing on the HW design part, and requires a person that must be able to perform:


• Schematics design.
• Component selection.
• Analog electronics design (such as filters, voltage and current amplifiers, DACs, ADCs).
• Digital electronics design (such as digital filters, implementation of electrical layer in communication protocols – UART, SPI, CAN bus, Ethernet, USB –, use of microcontrollers).
• Embedded C programming
• Development and performing of functionality tests during the development process

Some “nice to have” skills:


• PCB layout design: components placing, multilayer board routing.
• HW close programming (e.g. FPGA - VHDL)

Together in the group we develop the HIL-environment to a modular platform that can support Scania´s project and function growth.

Your profile

You have:


• a relevant university degree e.g. within computer science, electrical, mechatronics engineering or similar
• a strong interest in electrical or electronics engineering that you have either acquired through studies or own projects,
• a good knowledge in embedded systems hardware development

You are:


• self-going
• responsible
• service-minded
• thorough
• solutions-oriented
• fluent in English, Swedish is a big plus

Working in a similar role within a company in the automotive industry would be a huge plus.

We offer  

We work with all embedded systems for the complete vehicle. This gives you the possibility to work with the latest technology for example for electric vehicles and autonomous vehicles. We collaborate with the owners of the different embedded systems which will give you a broad network within Scania and also the possibility to learn about the details.
