Senior Embedded Software Engineer

Let's introduce ourselves

The future belongs to those who are empowered by a great idea and can carry it out. At Volvo Cars our purpose is to provide freedom to move in a personal, sustainable, and safe way. Do you want to be part of creating a safe, reliable, and secure software platform for our future Volvo models? 

This is us. 

Volvo Cars have an ambition to expand its in-house software development. At the department of Core System Software, we are part of this ambition. Our teams are building the next generation high-performance in-vehicle compute cluster, designed to host different vehicle applications, stretching from basic vehicle state machines to advance active safety and unsupervised autonomous drive functionalities. This compute cluster will be launched in our coming generation of pure electric and self-driving Volvo models. Our task is to create a safe, reliable, and secure software that serve as a platform for our stakeholders and partners to deploy and innovate their applications on. 

Our multi-core architecture includes high-performance (HP) systems on a chip (SoC), providing a framework for current and future services. We are now looking for experienced software development engineers with a genuine problem-solving attitude to strengthen our software development organization.
