Role Summary This role is a part of TRATON Group R&D, located in Södertälje, Sweden We are looking for a new team member to join our Cab Durability and Crash simulation unit at TRATON in Sweden. As the transport industry undergoes a major transformation - driven by sustainability, electrification, and autonomy - our group plays a key role in shaping the vehicles of tomorrow. Our responsibilities span FE strength and fatigue analyses of vehicle cabs, complete-vehicle crash simulations, and the passive safety properties of our vehicles. We also play a key role in vehicle homologation, including compliance with regulations such as UN ECE R29. Together with us, you have a unique opportunity to take an important part in developing TRATON’s future products as well as optimizing the existing ones. Job Responsibilities As a CAE Engineer, you will be part of a skilled team working at the intersection of simulation, testing, design, and certification. You will have the opportunity to influence product development from early engineering decisions through validation and homologation. Your main responsibilities will include: Drive crash safety through simulation. Apply your knowledge of solid mechanics and FE analysis to evaluate structural performance, identify potential improvements, and support designers in developing components and systems that deliver excellent passive safety. Challenge and improve our methods. Contribute to the continuous development of simulation methodologies, improving predictive capability, efficiency, and turnaround times. Shape our simulation strategies. Develop load cases, establish product acceptance criteria, and coordinate simulation activities across our global organization. Connect virtual and physical testing. Work closely with crash test engineers to correlate simulation results with physical tests, understand discrepancies, and develop relevant test methods. Contribute to vehicle safety and compliance. Support the development and verification of passive safety performance in line with applicable crash safety and homologation requirements. Collaborate across disciplines. Work closely with designers, testing specialists, certification teams, and international colleagues to turn engineering insights into practical design solutions. Who You Are You are a curious and analytical engineer who enjoys solving complex technical problems and transla
