Senior System Design Engineer – AD/ADAS

Do you want to create the future with us? 
The future belongs to those who are empowered by a great idea and with ability to carry it out.   
At Volvo Cars we are redefining the automotive experience and are innovating to make people’s lives less complicated. Freedom to move in a safe, personal and sustainable way! This is our purpose.  

What do we offer?  
Volvo Cars is on an ambitious journey to redefine the experience related to car usage and ownership. Combining technologies and innovative services, we are committed to offering the most personal, safe, and sustainable solutions in mobility.
At our Department of Autonomous Drive and Active Safety Functions, we design, integrate, and verify the complete vehicle solution for autonomous cars and active safety functions. We collaborate with some of the most innovative industry partners to reach our future visions of safety, convenience, and mobility.
Autonomous driving has the potential to fundamentally change how cars are used and are part of our society. As a member of the AD/ADAS Domain System Engineering team you will contribute to the team's purpose to take the lead in safe, customer valued and purposeful functions for Advanced Driver Assistance systems (ADAS) and Autonomous Driving (AD). The responsibility, communal with the team, is to develop and launch a robust safe, world-class functionality.

What will you do?
We are looking for an experienced engineer with competence in robust and safe system design to set the fundamentals of the AD/ADAS platform. The system design we do is the fundament of the AD/ADAS functions that are being built upon.
You will be one of the team players in a cross-functional team where you will contribute with your system engineering competence but also work to secure the complete AD/ADAS domain functionality. We think you are a person who has a strong interest, even a passion for AD/ADAS and wants to be part of the big shift into autonomous driving vehicles and new customer experiences.
The team is responsible for driving the AD/ADAS needs towards the rest of the vehicle, such as steering, braking, and HMI, and balancing the complete design. This means you need an understanding of how the different AD/ADAS functions work and their needs and you make a system design that scales over time. In this process, you collaborate closely with other teams at VCC and with our partners, and you have fun every day!

You feel confident to deep dive into a variety of areas such as fault/mode handling, allocation of SW, diagnostics, requirement handling, robust interface design, System Safety (ISO26262), and configuration.  We think that you have experience from coding in your previous positions, but you are now looking for another step in your career. An agile, cross-functional, and collaborative way of working is natural for you to reach high-quality results in time. You are a committed and trusted team worker, and you also get energized by leading others with your leadership skills.
