This is us. 
Volvo Cars has an ambition to expand its in-house software development. At the Department of Core System Software, we are part of this ambition. Our teams are building the next-generation high-performance in-vehicle compute cluster, designed to host different vehicle applications, stretching from basic vehicle state machines to advanced active safety and unsupervised autonomous drive functionalities. This compute cluster will be launched in our coming generation of pure electric and self-driving Volvo models. Our task is to create safe, reliable, and secure software that serves as a platform for our stakeholders and partners to deploy and innovate their applications. 

Our multi-core architecture includes high-performance (HP) systems on a chip (SoC), providing a framework for current and future services. We are now looking for experienced software development engineers with a genuine problem-solving attitude to strengthen our software development organization. 

What you´ll do? 
In our part of the R&D, we develop the base software for the Core Computer. We do that to provide computational power and enable successful application integration. Our teams work in an agile manner to be able to quickly adjust to changing requirements. We work with a state-of-the-art embedded multiprocessor environment from Nvidia including hypervisors, Linux, QNX, Rust, and other modern technologies. 

In this team, we develop the Diagnostic communication stack for our Core Platform. It includes DoIP gateway, CAN gateway, ODB/UDS services, diagnostic firewall, interfaces to customer application diagnostics and diagnostic monitors. A typical workday can consist of any combination of feature and platform development including tests, system test development, requirement management, system design, and more.  


What do we offer? 
Everything we do starts with people, and we want to be the employer of choice where people make a difference.
