Our values – customer first, respect, team spirit, responsibility, and elimination of waste – are at the heart of everything we do.

Role Summary

We are now looking for a FEM Simulation Engineer – IC Engine Strength & Durability to join TRATON Group’s Simulation domain within the Modular Solutions area.
In this role, you will work with strength and durability simulations of internal combustion engine platforms and components, supporting development across the entire TRATON Group.

You will be part of an agile organization delivering simulation expertise to Value Creation Teams (VCTs) within the Powertrain area.
This is an excellent opportunity to develop cutting-edge engine technologies while collaborating across disciplines and brands in a global engineering environment.

Job Responsibilities

As a FEM Simulation Engineer, you will contribute to engineering decisions by providing robust simulation insights for IC engine systems and components.
You will work in close collaboration with designers, test engineers, and other key roles to solve complex technical challenges.

Your responsibilities include:

• Performing finite element (FE) analyses on engine components and sub-systems, documenting results in technical reports
• Collaborating with design and test teams to define loads, boundary conditions, and propose solutions to technical challenges
• Developing and improving simulation methods to better capture failure modes and physical phenomena
• Contributing to process improvements aimed at eliminating waste and increasing efficiency
• Correlating simulation models and establishing method capability using data from field usage, rig testing, and vehicle measurements
• Automating simulation workflows through scripting to improve efficiency and quality
• Benchmarking current best practices and emerging trends within simulation, including AI/ML applications

Who You Are

We believe you are a curious, self-driven engineer who enjoys problem-solving and working collaboratively with others.
You take ownership of your work and are motivated by creating real impact through your technical contributions.

We expect you to have:

• A Master’s degree in solid mechanics, computational mechanics, mechanical engineering, or equivalent (e.g.
  fatigue, dynamics, material mechanics)
• Fluency in English, both written and spoken; Swedish is considered an advantage
• A collaborative mindset and a positive, solution-oriented attitude

Experience in one or more of the following areas is considered a merit:

• Programming or scripting (through work or personal projects)
• Engine development
• Thermo-mechanical fatigue
• Simulation tools such as HyperWorks, ANSA, FEMFAT, or similar

At TRATON, we place strong emphasis on attitude and teamwork.
We hire for potential and mindset and support your growth by developing skills needed for the job.
