The posting

Together, we develop and refine the systems that create the distinctive driving experience that defines a Polestar.

Let us describe the challenge we offer

You will be working in the Driving Dynamics department within the Vehicle Motion team. The team covers every aspect of vehicle drivability, including longitudinal vehicle controls, vehicle dynamics, braking, steering, and suspension.

As a Vehicle Motion Development Engineer, you will play a key role in shaping the driving experience that defines a Polestar. Working at the intersection of software, systems engineering, and vehicle dynamics, you will contribute to the development of vehicle motion functions that bring together technical performance, customer expectations, and the distinctive Polestar driving DNA.

You will collaborate with a broad network of stakeholders across software development, systems engineering, attribute development, quality, and supplier organizations. The role offers the opportunity to influence vehicle behavior throughout the development lifecycle while working with some of the industry's most advanced chassis and vehicle motion technologies.

This position is located at our HQ in Gothenburg. Some travel is required to support vehicle testing and validation activities in different climates and conditions.

What you'll do

Within Vehicle Motion, software components of the chassis systems are developed, calibrated, and validated to ensure we deliver an exceptional and unique driving experience for our customers.

For example, you will:

  • Conduct vehicle-level tuning and calibration activities on chassis software components to deliver key Polestar attributes and driving characteristics.
  • Collaborate with software developers, system engineers, and attribute leaders to optimize system functionality and performance.
  • Coordinate development activities with internal stakeholders and external suppliers.
  • Develop Design Verification Methods (DVMs) and test cases to support system validation.
  • Validate vehicle attributes and system performance in various climates and driving conditions.
  • Develop and maintain system function targets and requirements.
  • Create and maintain validation plans for both internal and external testing activities.
  • Manage fleet vehicles and associated hardware and software needs, including updates, tunables, spare parts, and consumables.
  • Analyze test data and drive continuous improvement of vehicle motion systems and customer-facing attributes.

Who you are

You are an analytical and hands-on engineer who is passionate about vehicle dynamics and automotive technology. You enjoy solving complex technical challenges and working collaboratively across disciplines to develop high-performing solutions. You thrive in an environment where innovation, ownership, and continuous improvement are part of everyday work.

To be a fit for this position we believe you have:

  • A bachelors or masters degree in a relevant engineering discipline.
  • 2-5 years of experience within automotive development.
  • Documented experience working within the chassis domain.
  • Strong knowledge of automotive systems and development processes.
  • Experience with calibration tools such as CANoe, CANape, and INCA.
  • Strong analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills.
  • Experience working in an international environment across different countries and cultures.
  • A valid driver's license.
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills in English.

At Polestar, you will be part of a cross-functional and international team, with English as a natural language for written and spoken communication. Since Polestar’s in a scale-up phase you thrive by working in a fast-paced environment.
