About the position You will be one of the senior embedded SW engineers in the development of embedded software platform, its integration on specific hardware and associated tools for current & future “Software-Defined Vehicles”. The Embedded SW platform that you will be working will be integrated in the “brain” of the vehicle which we call our centralized computational node which is based on high end SOC with multiple cores hosting several operating systems some of them on top of Hypervisor and providing capabilities for application developers to develop application with mixed criticality levels. This will be used by most of the Volvo brand vehicles.
You will work with development and integration of concepts and technologies for our embedded software platform with focus on Hypervisor technologies. The other products within the department are around Volvo Autosar Platform (VAP), Linux, and Volvo Dynamic Software Platform (VDSP) based on Adaptative Autosar. The work is done in very close collaboration with our different suppliers and various development/architecture teams at Volvo. The work may include integration of these platforms in different ECUs and software development of platform features. This position offers variation in challenges and assignments and requires an open mind to new technologies and concepts.
Who are we? The mission of the Base SW Group within Electrical and Electronics Architecture at Vehicle Technology is to provide best in class embedded software platform & technologies, that enable’s software-driven transport solutions for Volvo. We believe in “Software-Defined Everything” and strive to be in the forefront. We foster teamwork and collaboration with continuous improvement mind-set.
We are responsible for the complete life cycle, from strategy to maintenance of the on-board base SW platform which also implies that the group explores/uses both latest technology and tools as well as matured technology and tools. We have the product and technical ownership of the on-board base SW platform delivered by the team.
