What kind of challenge you might wonder?


The wind is changing within the automotive industry and current digital and connected solutions are constantly challenging us in how we develop and sell our products.

This is us, your new colleagues

In our group, we focus on the development of Vehicle Connectivity and Driver Environment. Having a global responsibility, the solutions developed within the team can be found in Volvo buses all over the world helping millions of people every day to reach their destination. Imagine that as a legacy!
