Research Engineer in Autonomous Motion for Autonomous Transport Solutions

Scania genomgår nu en transformation från att vara en leverantör av lastbilar, bussar och motorer till en leverantör av kompletta och hållbara transportlösningar.

Are you a curious, dedicated and responsible person that believe leading the way towards sustainable transport solutions would be exciting?

At Autonomous Transport Solutions (ATS) Pre-Development & Research, Scania R&D, we pursue top-quality research and development of future cutting edge ATS concepts. We operate in agile and self-steered teams that work in close cooperation with the Volkswagen group, leading technology suppliers, and academic institutions, with the ambition to detect and evaluate upcoming technologies. Our culture is built based upon delivering added customer value through research and practical experiments that iteratively lead to concepts for industrialization.

Does this sound like an interesting technical area? Then send us your application and we will be happy to give you a more detailed explanation.
