Test Rigs Project Manager

The Integration Group
The integration group consists of approximately 30 highly skilled engineers who are working in smaller teams at the Electrical Department in Gothenburg. Each team is working independent of each other, but still there is a high degree of teamwork between the teams. Also each team have the communication with their counterparts in other sites within Volvo Group Truck Technology. The group is responsible for the global development of test rigs for the electrical department as well as Integrating HW and SW delivered from different suppliers. In order for the organisation to work smooth, one of the teams develop the tools required, one team develops the test objects and one is making sure that the electrical installation in production plant is running smooth. Within the group we also have the trouble shooting for the test rigs and test trucks used within electrical Verification. Never to forget that fun during the work day is also as important and this something we always strive toward. As an addition this group gives a perfect overview of how the complete electrical system is constructed in a truck at the same time as you have the opportunity to work with highly motivated engineers all around the globe.
