At Research & Development you will be a key contributor to the next generation outstanding luxury cars from Volvo. Together with other engineers around the world, you and your team will create innovative human-centric car technology that makes life less complicated and more enjoyable for people. Are you interested in design and connected car technology? Do you share our passion for people, the environment and our urge to create a superior driving experience? Research and Development is the place for you to prosper.
Craftsmanship & Ergonomics Centre (C&E C) is an attribute centre at Vehicle Engineering responsible for Solidity, Ergonomics and Perceived Quality.
