Mechanical Engineer for Powertrain Installation Bus

Scania is undergoing a transformation from being a leading supplier of trucks, buses, and engines to providing complete and sustainable transport solutions. Together with TRATON and our sister brands MAN, Volkswagen Truck & Bus, and International, we are working to shape the future of mobility with innovative and environmentally conscious solutions. Our values – customer first, respect, team spirit, responsibility, and elimination of waste – are at the heart of everything we do. Together, we are at the forefront of creating a sustainable future.

Role Summary

Do you want to see your mechanical designs come to life in a complete vehicle?
As a Mechanical Design Engineer within Powertrain Installation, you will work close to the product throughout the entire development journey — from early concepts to production‑ready solutions. Your work will have a direct impact on the performance, quality, and competitiveness of the Scania bus.

You will be part of a professional and collaborative engineering environment where quality, structure, and teamwork are central. Together, we develop robust, cost‑efficient solutions that become an integral part of the complete Scania bus — used by customers all over the world.

Job Responsibilities

Depending on your background and experience, you will take ownership of one or several of the following areas:

  • Design and development of battery suspension solutions for bus applications
  • Benchmarking and analysis of competitor solutions to drive continuous improvement
  • Contribution to product and process improvements across the development chain
  • Securing compliance with regulatory certifications and internal requirement standards
  • Close collaboration with component owners, function owners, bodybuilders, and cross‑functional teams to deliver production‑ready, high‑quality solutions for the Scania bus chassis

 

You will have real ownership of your designs and clearly see how your work fits into — and influences — the complete vehicle.

 

 

Who You Are

You are a structured and quality‑oriented engineer with a genuine interest in mechanical design for vehicles. You enjoy working close to the product, take responsibility for your deliveries, and understand the importance of designing solutions that work not only in CAD — but in real life.

You collaborate naturally with others, communicate clearly in English, and are motivated by continuous development — both of yourself and of the products you help create.

We believe you have:

  • A Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related field
  • Experience or a strong professional focus within mechanical design, preferably involving sheet metal and/or cast components
  • Experience working with CATIA (or similar mechanical design tools)
  • Experience from Scania or a similar automotive or heavy‑vehicle development environment is a strong advantage

 

The role is well suited for engineers with a few years of experience who can work independently within their area while actively contributing to the team.
At the same time, driven early‑career engineers or recent graduates with the right educational background, strong technical curiosity, and a clear ambition to grow within mechanical design are very welcome to apply.

This Is Us

We are a design section consisting of five closely collaborating design groups, focusing on hardware installation within Scania Bus R&D. Our culture is characterized by team spirit, openness, and continuous learning.

We believe in supporting each other and creating an environment where engineers can grow — both technically and professionally. We actively support you in:

  • Developing and deepening your technical design skills
  • Strengthening communication and cross‑functional collaboration
  • Building engagement and ownership in the products and innovations we create together

Here, your ideas matter — and your contribution makes a visible difference.
