Position Description

You now have a great opportunity to join the Special Vehicles Engineering Team, which are dedicated to developing low volume solutions and specific customized offers for Volvo Trucks Heavy Duty ranges (FH, FM, FMX). We take an active part in making Volvo Trucks the world leader in sustainable transport solutions and we need you to join our team and contribute to our challenging assignments.

We work with low volume development tasks from first sketch to full industrialization, but also with development of demo-trucks and staggered introduction of new technologies such as e-mobility, alternative fuels, automation, and connectivity. In addition, we develop specific solutions for Volvo Defense providing transport solutions for military & civil defense operations.

Volvo have delivered trucks to the Swedish army since 1928 and we are today delivering transport solutions for the defense and civil protection segment. The products are based on the commercial operation and offers a high degree of communality. We will now reinforce the Special Vehicles team in order to support this segment even further. The defense business is tender driven and the relation and understanding with the customer is crucial.

This is us, your new colleagues

We are a team with a cross functional mix of experienced people from different areas, chassis, cab, geometrical architecture, electrical wiring, and software. Within the department we also have chief project managers and vehicle architects, which means we can take on really challenging development tasks together.

Our culture is based on trust, accountability, business mindset and we all share the same belief that everything is possible if we do it together.

Our way of working is lean and we continuously develop and implement innovative ways of working to secure high performance in time to market, quality, and reduced development costs for all our products.

Lead development tasks in cooperation with both internal experts and external partners
Drive the technical dialogue with engineering, manufacturing, purchasing, suppliers, partners and most importantly our customers
Develop and share acquired competence and provide technical advice

You are curious and thrive to take the lead with courage and integrity and feel comfortable working autonomously. You have ability to build trust and to manage networking across the engineering-, manufacturing-, purchasing and sales and marketing organizations.

We find that well balanced teams increase group dynamics, creativity, and our overall efficiency. We are therefore actively working to establish teams that will take maximum advantage of the strength inherent to differences in knowledge, experience, age, gender, and nationality, among others.
