Support vehicle packaging through Digital Mock-Up (DMU), kinematic analysis and virtual validation.

Execute and support simulations related to human factors, ergonomics, cable routing, flexible systems, vehicle kinematics, digital validation, operations and maintenance.

Support the integration of PLM systems with immersive visualization platforms and contribute to SDK- and API-based engineering workflows.

Collaborate with Vehicle Architects, Geometrical Architects, Product Design Engineers, Simulation Engineers, Manufacturing Engineers, Human Factors Specialists, IT, PLM teams and Digital Product Owners.

Your work will help improve engineering efficiency, collaboration and product quality by connecting product development, simulation, PLM and immersive technologies into a unified digital engineering ecosystem.

Your future team

You will join a cross-functional digital engineering environment that works closely with vehicle development, product design, simulation, manufacturing, IT and PLM stakeholders. The team supports engineering organizations across the product lifecycle and combines expertise in vehicle architecture, geometrical integration, simulation, software development and immersive technologies. You will work in close collaboration with all development sites.

Profile description: Who are you?

Do you dream big? We do too, and we are excited to grow together. In this role, you will bring strong technical expertise, an analytical mindset and a passion for using emerging technologies to improve how vehicles are developed and validated.

Essential requirements

Several years of relevant experience in one or more of the following areas: advanced visualization and XR engineering, vehicle packaging, geometrical architecture, digital engineering, engineering simulation, or PLM and CAD integration.

Advanced knowledge of immersive engineering tools and workflows, with expert-level experience in IC.IDO and IPS, or equivalent industrial XR platforms.

Experience developing or supporting simulation methodologies related to areas such as ergonomics, human factors, cable routing, kinematics, assembly, maintenance or operational scenarios.

Strong knowledge of CAD and PLM data management, including experience with tools such as CATIA V5, Creo Parametric, Creo View, Creo Illustrate, Windchill or PDMLink.

Fluent in spoken and written English.

It is a plus if you also have

Hands-on experience with XR and visualization technologies, including Digital Twin solutions, driving simulators, 3D content creation, and Unreal/Unity engines, supported by tools like Pixyz, Vuforia, GWYN, Blender, and MATLAB.

Strong understanding of engineering and product data ecosystems, including Volvo engineering systems (e.g. GWYN, DCT, VAview, EDB, KOLA), PLM-to-XR data pipelines, and Digital Twin strategies.

Software development and integration experience, including Python programming, familiarity with C#/.NET, and working with REST APIs, workflow automation, system integration, Microsoft Azure, and cloud-based solutions.

You are a strong analytical and creative problem solver with excellent visualization and spatial reasoning skills. You can understand complex vehicle systems and balance requirements related to design, manufacturing, serviceability, aerodynamics, safety and product modularity. You are self-driven, service-minded and motivated by continuous improvement. You build trust with stakeholders, communicate with clarity and enjoy presenting, training and sharing knowledge. Most importantly, you are curious about emerging technologies and want to turn digital transformation into practical value for engineering teams.
