Research Engineer in Trustworthy Automated Driving DevOps

Scania is undergoing a transformation from being a supplier of trucks, buses and engines to a supplier of complete and sustainable transport solutions.
Innovative software solutions for connected automated vehicles will be the key to driving this shift successfully. To ensure success and position Scania at the forefront as a software company, we are building a research team of PhD-students and research engineers in the area of software defined vehicles. The goal is to increase the speed of product development by utilizing solutions based upon software combined with digitalization and automation of the development framework.
We apply a case-study-driven research approach, meaning that research ideas are implemented and evaluated using case studies, and the results are used to drive the next steps in research. As a research engineer you get the opportunity to contribute in development of novel methodology using state-of-the-art knowledge with overall goal to prepare Scania to take next steps needed to stay in a top position as a software driven automotive OEM.
This specific position is for the project TADDO – “Trustworthy Automated Driving DevOps”, in which we intend address the insufficiency of current DevOps practices for safety-critical systems. Trustworthy DevOps refers to the need to trust the entire “loop”; from monitoring over updates to the actual safety risks and performance related to the “updated behaviors” and their impact. A focus of the work will be formal methods to ensure modular trustworthy architectures for autonomous and semi-autonomous vehicles. Furthermore, solutions developed need to take into account the high degree of configurability of Scania products.
The project is a collaboration between Scania, KTH, Einride and more. For more information see https://www.vinnova.se/en/p/taddo---trustworthy-automated-driving-devops/ .
