Job Description - System Design Engineer


Software, the fuel for mobility
We bring bold digital visions to life. So we’re on the lookout for more curious and creative engineers who want to create change – one line of high-quality code at a time. Our transformation isn't for everyone, but if you're excited about solving the leading-edge technological challenges facing the auto industry, then let’s talk about your next move.


Let's introduce ourselves

The Manage Electrical Energy (MEE) team is responsible for developing core system platform functionality related to energy and power optimization across the vehicle. Our responsibility spans the full lifecycle—from early concept and system definition to industrialization and field follow‑up.



We are a cross‑functional team working closely across System Design, System Safety, Software Development, Verification, and Quality Assurance, collaborating to deliver robust, scalable, and future‑ready electrical energy solutions for the vehicle platform.

What you'll do

As a System Design Engineer, your main focus will be system design and function specification within the electrical energy management domain. You will:



  • Lead system design activities and develop concept solutions for balancing energy consumption across the complete electrical system throughout all vehicle life phases

  • Define, document, review, and sign off system requirements and technical documentation

  • Take ownership of system documentation and requirement management

  • Monitor implementations in ongoing vehicle programs and ensure feedback is fed back into the concept solution

  • Work closely with software, hardware, and system engineers, contributing across disciplines and learning from a broad technical landscape

  • Collaborate with multiple stakeholders to ensure robust, safe, and scalable system solutions

What you'll bring

We believe you are a result‑oriented and analytical engineer who enjoys problem solving and thrives in a changing environment. You are self‑driven, structured in your communication, and comfortable taking ownership of complex systems.


 


You bring:



  • A BSc degree or higher in Software Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or equivalent experience

  • 5+ years of experience in system design, preferably in automotive or telecom environments

  • Strong communication skills and the ability to present technical results in a clear and structured way


 


Experience with:



  • System design of large, distributed systems

  • System safety

  • Software development

  • Hardware knowledge related to DC/DC converters, LV/HV batteries, and power supply systems

  • A valid EU driver’s license (category B)


 


It is considered a strong advantage if you also have experience or knowledge in:



  • Elektra

  • CarWeaver / SystemWeaver

  • Embedded software testing

  • Automotive communication protocols such as CAN, FlexRay, Ethernet, SOME/IP

  • Power electronics


 


You value teamwork, collaboration, and continuous learning — and you’re motivated to grow your competence while contributing to a shared technical vision.


Volvo Cars. For Life.
For nearly a century, Volvo Cars has empowered people to move freely in a personal, sustainable and safe way. Today, we are driving bold advancements in electrification, sustainability and automotive safety. To realise our ambitious vision, we are seeking innovative minds who are ready to tackle the challenges of tomorrow – today.

At Volvo Cars, we believe extraordinary things are achieved by ordinary people with a passion for making a difference. If you’re inspired by the opportunity to help redefine the future of mobility, we invite you to be part of our journey.

Ready to take the next step?
Submit your CV in English and tell us why you’re the ideal candidate for a role at Volvo Cars. Applications must be received no later than 15th of June 2026. You will receive a confirmation email after your submission. 

As part of the recruitment process, the final candidates will undergo a background check. 

We welcome your application!
