About Volvo Cars
In 2020 Volvo Cars released its first fully electric vehicle, the XC40 Recharge, with ambitions to electrify its entire line-up by 2030. Electrification of the vehicle and the entire automotive business is at the core of Volvo Cars strategy and one highly prioritized area within the Company. While this transition is in line with our core value of sustainability, we recognize electric vehicles are only part of the equation when it comes to sustainable mobility.
About us

The team is the core competence centre in Northern Europe regarding Charging solutions.
The on-board charger (OBC) is essential for electrified vehicles, it holds the functionality to charge the traction battery from the grid as well as of communication externally to the car and it is for sure of highest importance in a pure electric vehicle. AC- and DC-charging are in current projects and technologies like smart charging, plug and charge and wireless charging is around the corner.
The external energy system area is growing and will play a more important role for Volvo Cars going forward. The ambition is that our customers shall have the opportunity to charge their vehicles in a sustainable and safe way, and the possibility to integrate with smart energy management systems. Part of this is to develop the best hardware quality and functionality in the market and continuously evolve our way of working. This is where we want your help!
About you
You are passionate about energy solutions and cars, both from a customer and technical point of view. You have a high level of engagement and a strong enthusiasm.

What you will do
As a Hardware Designer you will be responsible for the hardware design of the external energy systems. You will need high competence and drive in developing energy efficient solutions that are integrated in a seamless way. Integration is both in technical terms towards the electric grid and the car but also towards the customer to create a leading user experience.
