🚀 We’re Hiring: In-Vehicle Test & Verification Engineer – ADAS | Automotive

Hykmann Global Business Solutions AB is looking for an experienced In-Vehicle Test & Verification Engineer for a long-term consulting assignment with an internationally renowned client in the automotive industry in Gothenburg, Sweden.

Are you passionate about automotive technology, advanced driver assistance systems, and testing vehicles in real-world driving conditions? This is an exciting opportunity to contribute to the verification and validation of intelligent vehicle functions that improve safety, driving experience, and customer confidence.

We’re looking for a hands-on engineer who enjoys working close to the vehicle, analysing technical behaviour, and translating test findings into actionable improvements for development teams.

📍 Location: Gothenburg, Sweden

🏢 Work model: 100% on-site – no remote work

📅 Assignment period: 26 October 2026 – 31 August 2028

🎯 Seniority: Intermediate

🗣️ Working language: English

🎯 About the Role

You will work with the verification and validation of advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and vehicle functions, with a strong focus on physical in-vehicle testing and customer-relevant driving scenarios.

You will plan, prepare, execute, and document tests using complete vehicles, proving grounds, and public roads. Where appropriate, you will complement physical testing with rig-based or simulation environments.

Your work will help ensure that vehicle functions are safe, reliable, robust, intuitive, and suitable for everyday driving.

🔧 Key Responsibilities

• Plan, prepare, execute, and document in-vehicle tests for ADAS and advanced vehicle functions.
• Validate functional behaviour and performance in real-world driving situations and customer-relevant scenarios.
• Prepare test vehicles, test objects, test setups, and driving routes.
• Conduct structured testing on public roads and proving grounds.
• Define test scenarios, acceptance criteria, pass/fail criteria, and verification methods.
• Evaluate function robustness, availability, usability, comfort, and overall driving experience.
• Analyze vehicle logs and test results to identify deviations, investigate issues, and support root-cause analysis.
• Provide clear, structured feedback to software developers, function owners, system engineers, and other development stakeholders.
• Work with in-vehicle communication, diagnostics, and data-logging tools.
• Contribute to continuous improvement of test methods, test coverage, and testing efficiency.
• Collaborate with test leads, fleet coordinators, suppliers, and cross-functional engineering teams.
• Use simulation, HIL/SIL, rig testing, or automated verification where appropriate to complement vehicle testing.

✅ Required Skills & Qualifications

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Mechatronics, Electrical Engineering, Automation and Control, Automotive Engineering, Computer Science, or equivalent relevant experience.
• Hands-on experience with complete vehicle testing, preferably within ADAS, active safety, automated driving, or other customer-facing vehicle functions.
• Experience planning, executing, and documenting physical vehicle tests.
• Understanding of verification and validation methods, test scenarios, acceptance criteria, and deviation handling.
• Ability to assess vehicle functionality from both technical and customer perspectives.
• Experience analysing vehicle logs and test results to support troubleshooting and root-cause analysis.
• Knowledge of in-vehicle communication, diagnostics, and data logging.
• Familiarity with automotive test tools such as CANoe, CANalyzer, CANape, INCA, DLT, or equivalent tools.
• Valid Swedish B driving licence and confidence conducting structured tests in real vehicles.
• Proficiency in English, both written and spoken.
• Strong analytical, documentation, communication, and problem-solving skills.

⭐ Nice-to-Have Skills

• Basic scripting or automation skills, particularly Python, for log analysis and test preparation.
• Experience with HIL, SIL, test rigs, simulation, or CI/CD-based verification.
• Experience with ADAS, active safety, collision avoidance, or automated driving systems.
• Additional driver training or experience as a safety driver.
• Proving-ground testing experience.
• Experience with customer-oriented vehicle testing or fleet operations.

👤 Our Ideal Candidate

You are a self-driven, structured, and practical engineer with a genuine interest in vehicles and advanced automotive technology.

You enjoy investigating how vehicle functions behave in real driving conditions and understand the difference between a feature that technically works and one that feels safe, reliable, and intuitive to the driver.

You communicate clearly, take ownership of your findings, and work collaboratively to transform observations into meaningful engineering improvements. You are comfortable moving between hands-on vehicle testing, technical analysis, and discussions with cross-functional development teams.

🔐 Important: Background Check

This assignment is classified as sensitive and requires the relevant background checks to be completed before the assignment begins.

• The necessary background verification must be completed after candidate selection and before the start of the assignment.
• Any discrepancies identified during the screening process must be reported and may affect eligibility.
• Evidence of completed background checks may be requested during the assignment.

Candidates should be prepared to cooperate with the required screening process.
