Scania is now undergoing a transformation from being a supplier of trucks, buses and engines to a supplier of complete and sustainable transport solutions.Join our dynamic and ambitious team at Scania R&D as we work to revolutionize the transportation industry with our cutting-edge autonomous transport solutions (ATS). Our culture is centered on delivering added value to our customers through innovative concept creation and real-world experimentation. We strive to maintain a start-up vibe while enjoying the stability of a large organization.

Are you ready to turn your ideas into reality? Apply now and be part of a team that is shaping the future of transportation.

Background

High-definition maps (HD maps) are critical to the success of autonomous driving systems, as they enhance a vehicle's perception of its environment, which is essential for accurate localization, planning, and prediction. However, the accuracy of HD maps begins to degrade from the moment data is collected, which presents a significant challenge.

As a member of our team, you will have the opportunity to tackle this problem head-on and make a significant contribution to the development of this technology. You will work alongside other talented and motivated individuals who are passionate about pushing the boundaries of what's possible in the field of autonomous driving.

Join us and be at the forefront of the next generation of autonomous driving systems! You will have the opportunity to work on cutting-edge projects, collaborate with top talent in the field, and make a real impact on the world around us. Don't miss this opportunity to be part of a team that is changing the future of transportation.

Life-long Mapping and Localization

Lifelong mapping system that can facilitate the long-term deployment of autonomous vehicles in changing environments. This is a crucial area of research, and your contributions will be integral to the success of this technology.

As part of this project, you will have the opportunity to investigate innovative approaches that can identify changes in the information contained in HD maps based on the vehicle's sensory observations. This will involve utilizing machine learning techniques, statistical methods, and other cutting-edge technologies to match and associate data collected through the vehicle's sensors with a-priori map information.

You will be working with a team of experts from Autonomous Transport Solutions (ATS) Research at Scania and the division for Robotics, Perception, and Learning (RPL) at KTH-Royal Institute of Technology. Under the guidance of Prof. Patric Jensfelt (academic supervisor) and Rohin Mohanadas (industrial supervisor), you will pursue multi-disciplinary research in areas such as statistical filtering, deep learning, graph theory, optimization, and sensing technologies.

Your profile


Are you a talented and driven individual with a passion for technology and innovation? Do you want to take your skills to the next level and work on cutting-edge research that can make a real difference in the world? If so, we want to hear from you!

We are seeking applicants with a Master of Engineering degree (or equivalent) in applied mathematics, computer science, machine learning, robotics, engineering physics, electrical engineering or a related technical science or engineering subject.
