HIL Engineer to Complete Electrical HIL

Who are we?
Volvo Cars is a company on a mission; to bring traditional car manufacturing into a connected, sustainable and smart future.
Since 1927, we have been a brand known for our commitment to safety, creating innovative cars that make life less complicated for our consumers. In 2010, we decided to transform our business, resulting in a totally new generation of cars and technologies, as well as steady growth and record sales. Today, we’re expanding our global footprint in Europe, China and the US, and we’re on the lookout for new talent.
We are constantly pushing our own skills and abilities to drive change in the automobile industry like never before. We are looking for innovative, committed people to join us in this endeavour and create safe, sustainable and connected cars. We believe in the power of people and will challenge and support you to reach your full potential. Join us and be part of Volvo Cars’ journey into the future.

Working with the future at our part of R&D
We at Complete Electrical HIL, have the responsibility to develop and maintain HIL rigs (Hardware in the Loop) at complete vehicle level. Our HILs are used for Integration and verification of both HW and SW in early phases. The purpose of HIL is to stimulate the system and its components to believe they are in a real vehicle with all their dynamics. This is achieved by simulating environmental models that execute in real time on dSpace SCALEXIO simulators. We secure that the HIL rigs can be updated with new technology to support future projects such as electrification and autonomous vehicles.
The work
As a HIL engineer you will work in a cross functional HIL team, with continuous improvements regarding test automation, modeling in Simulink and integration of HIL solutions. You get a broad understanding of Volvo Cars Vehicle systems and Electrical functions. You will also work with other groups at Volvo, our suppliers and create a wide network. The role gives you a varied and challenging work. Together with your colleagues, you will further develop the HIL concept to enable test automation and “Continuous Integration”.

Who are you and what do you need to know? 
You are as a person curious and like to solve problems. You are flexible and can handle multiple parallel tasks at the same time. You are social and work effectively together with others to achieve results. You are driven, quality conscious and like questions about the improvement of methods and processes.
