Transport is at the core of modern society. Imagine using your expertise to shape sustainable transport and infrastructure solutions for the future. If you seek to make a difference on a global scale, working with next-gen technologies and the sharpest collaborative teams, then we could be a perfect match.

At Volvo do Brasil, we believe that diverse perspectives, experiences, and talents strengthen our ability to develop solutions that create prosperity for society. We are committed to fostering an inclusive workplace grounded in equal opportunities, and we encourage people with disabilities (PwDs) to apply for all our job opportunities.

What you will do

At Powertrain Technology you will contribute to the transformation of our company, the transport industry and society at large. As a Verification Engineer, you will play a crucial role in ensuring the quality of our products through comprehensive system verification for current and future propulsion systems. Working with Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) environments and vehicles, you will help ensure that our electrical and electronic systems fulfill their intended functions and expected behaviors. Your holistic view, curiosity, resilience, and drive to continuously improve how we verify our products will be key to our success. As part of an agile team and a global engineering community, you will have the opportunity to shape our test environments, methods, and verification strategies, increasing automation, enabling earlier verification, and improving product and software quality.

You will:

• Perform system verification using HIL rigs and vehicles, analyze results, report verification status, and create problem reports when deviations are identified.
• Develop automated test methods, test specifications, test cases, and verification scopes.
• Configure, maintain, and continuously improve HIL rigs and their test environments.
• Investigate failures, troubleshoot complex system behaviors, and support root cause analysis together with software, calibration, and system engineering teams.
• Collaborate with Product Owners, Embedded Solution Leaders, software developers, and other stakeholders to plan, execute, and report verification activities.
• Contribute to automated verification and its integration into CI/CD pipelines, enabling earlier and faster feedback throughout software development.
• Build strong relationships across our global engineering network and contribute to continuous improvement, standardization, and reuse of verification solutions.

Your future team

You will join a diverse engineering team working across four main areas: sensors, software configuration, software delivery, and system verification. Our verification activities are centered on a HIL laboratory supporting powertrain development, where embedded software and electronic systems can be integrated, tested, and matured in representative environments before vehicle-level verification. As part of a global organization, we develop and verify solutions used by customers around the world. The role offers daily collaboration with international teams in Sweden, France, the United States, and India, providing broad exposure to powertrain systems, embedded software, test automation, simulation, and modern verification technologies.
