Software Engineer integration

Who are we?
Volvo Cars is a company on a mission; to bring traditional car manufacturing into a connected, sustainable and smart future.
Since 1927, we have been a brand known for our commitment to safety, creating innovative cars that make life less complicated for our consumers. In 2010, we decided to transform our business, resulting in a totally new generation of cars and technologies, as well as steady growth and record sales. Today, we’re expanding our global footprint in Europe, China and the US, and we’re on the lookout for new talent.

Software Integration Engineer focusing on the complexity with interfunctionality 

Are you a problem solver that have a passion for integration orchestration? Are you looking for a new challenge, setting your skill-set in use in a large-scaled embedded SW development organization? Are you used to outline visual descriptions of a system, looking into electrical system capabilities and the dependencies between them in a build order from basic functions to “customer value”? -Apply today!  

At Volvo Cars, we are making bold digital visions come true. We aim to lead in the automotive world by creating a digital ecosystem built around making our customers' lives less complicated. We are moving towards becoming more of a software developing company and where our products give the driver’s a car-experience that improves every day. We look for curious, creative people who want to change the world through innovative thinking.

Working with the future at our part of R&D
Complete Test and integration, we have come to an important step in the development of our new software-centric platform. Test and integration on the complete software and electronics system level are highly prioritized. The mission in our team is to bring integration-driven development and test into product creation to continuously demonstrate that we deliver the best electrical system in the automotive world. We are also held responsible to secure a stable and robust electrical system for Volvo Car’s new SW and electronics platforms.

We are now looking for you who can help us bring it all together from functional needs, SW development to embedded SW integration, in a continuous integration and automatic testing flow, to well defined release candidates in car products. 
In order to orchestrate integration, we are using an integration driven development (IDD) approach that combines plan-driven, incremental development with agile methods. Our planning is based on visualization of dependencies between needed system changes - called anatomies.   

The work
As an Software Integration engineer you will be part of a competent team that will drive the roadmap strategy and implementation of integration driven development (IDD). With system anatomies, resembling both customer value and testability aspects, you will form and maintain the roadmap on how the electrical platform shall incrementally evolve over time. The roadmap you and your team create will continuously lead the organization on what to develop next to meet various needs.
You will take part of creating the integration orchestration in the organization to adopt and bring in new innovations and make sure they create business value. Also, you will…
•    Create an IDD and test strategy for new platforms that can be used to maximize the value of integration testing.
•    Create an integration plan that is used to lead and visualize the complete integration.
•    Drive and lead Workshops focusing on integration driven development  
•    Have a mind-set of thinking product instead of project to enable the integration to be performed in the most efficient way.

Who are you and what do you need to know?
We believe that collaboration and networking come natural to you as well as the goal that our software- and electronics- architecture and processes should enable our business. You are communicative and can use suitable value argumentation in dialogue with both product managers, stakeholders and when empowering the test and integration developers. You can make sense of complex high quantity, and sometimes contradictory, information to effectively solve problems. You actively seek ways to grow using both formal and informal development channels.

You have…
•    M.Sc in Electrical and Software Engineering or similar relevant experience
•    Knowledge and experience in how to create and drive roadmaps, vision and steps to get there
•    Extensive experience from working with sw integration within a large-scaled embedded system
•    Integration planning from large scale software product development including hands on experience
•    Software experience

Meritorious:
•    Experience working with integration driven development focusing on anatomies. 
•    Experience within automotive and from working in an international environment
•    Agile frameworks and development such as SAFe.
•    Driver’s license (B-level)
