We take an active part in making Volvo Trucks the world leader with the heavy duty truck range FH, FM, FMX in sustainable defense logistical transport missions, and we need you to join our team and contribute to our challenging assignments. 

This is us, your new colleague

We are an experienced engineering team from different areas cross-functionally in chassis, cab, electrical hardware and software. Within the Special Vehicles department we also have chief project managers and vehicle and geometrical architects, which means we can take on really challenging development tasks together. 

Our way of working is based on that 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.

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.

Role description

You will be part of a team responsible for the chassis engineering activities within Special Vehicles Defense Engineering. As a core member in our team, we offer you the opportunity to work in a collaborative atmosphere and a culture of can-do attitude.

For this position your main responsibilities will be:

• Lead and take part in the chassis design activities from concept to industrialization for Defense vehicles products and deliver technical solutions agreed with our customers
• As the Defense business is tender driven meaning that you need to be able to quickly adapt and sometimes deliver solutions with short lead times.
• 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
• Contribute to continuous improvement activities regarding way of working, business development, innovation and together build the team spirit

Education, Experience, Knowledge and Skills

For success in this role, we expect you to have:

• University degree in Mechanical Engineering or similar technical field of study
• Work experience in relevant field for a minimum of 7 years
• Extensive knowledge of design engineering work within the chassis area of trucks, or similar areas within the automotive sector 
• Extensive experience with 3D CAD-tools, such as Creo or Catia, and PDM-systems is needed to be efficient in this role
• Experience from the Defense sector or Governmental sales is needed to be successful in this role

You are curious and thrive to take the lead with courage and integrity and feel comfortable working autonomously. You have the 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.

If you have an open mindset to new innovative ways of working and get energized by working close to the customer and constantly evolving to meet their needs, you might be our next colleague.  

Are we a perfect match?

We promise you some truly exciting technical challenges and the opportunity to join a team of skilled colleagues. We are eager to learn from you and you will get fantastic opportunities to learn and develop with us. So, if you are a person who is flexible, who sees challenges as something positive and is ready to act? Then we hope to hear from you. 

As this role is connected to the Defense business we have to perform a background and security control.

Curious and have some questions, call me?
