Tackling real-world challenges in autonomous systems

We hope you are a talent who has recently finished your master's program or is about to graduate in the next few months! Or maybe you have one or two years of work experience. Perhaps you are looking for a PhD position at a top university while remaining close to the industry to understand real-world problems. Please continue reading if this is you.

The role

Scania is developing autonomous transport solutions and has recently announced autonomous trucks for mining applications. Widening the operational design domain (ODD) from confined areas to, e.g., transportation of goods on public roads is a significant undertaking. There will always be so-called long-tail problems, scenarios that are hard, or even impossible, to foresee and test the system against. The autonomous system must therefore be so generic that it can handle such unseen scenarios in the ODD. In recent years, foundation models have shown promise in enabling generalization and reasoning and a thriving research field is investigating different applications of these models, including autonomous driving.

One key aspect of autonomous systems is their sensing of the external environment. For autonomous vehicles, a sensor setup of, e.g., cameras, lidars, and radars is used. The sensor data must be processed in such a way that no important information is lost but it is still compressed to a manageable amount for the downstream tasks to be performed in a timely manner.

Scania and KTH are setting up a joint project, Multi-modal Open-set Perception for Safer Autonomous Trucks (MOPS), partly funded by Vinnova, where sensor data processing for and by foundation models will be studied in the context of autonomous driving. In this project, Scania will hire one industrial PhD student who will conduct research in this area supervised by KTH and Scania. 

The PhD student will be employed by Scania CV AB, and affiliated to the Division of Robotics, Perception and Learning, KTH Royal Institute of Technology. A PhD student position constitutes normally 80% academic work and includes coursework and research. The academic supervision is done by Olov Andersson, more information about his research and research group can be found here https://www.kth.se/profile/olovand

We are dedicated to an inclusive and diverse workplace, and you will be working alongside a diverse and talented group of developers, designers, and engineers who are committed to devising innovative solutions that redefine the way we deliver and learn.

Job responsibilities

* Research, write scientific papers, write PhD thesis.
* Take academic courses required by the PhD education.
* Work with applications of foundation models and other deep learning methods.
* Support and coach product development projects in proof-of-concepts validating approaches resulting from the research.
* Tech transfer of the research results to ensure long-term benefits at Scania, taking non-technical feasibility into account.


Your profile

* You hold, or will soon obtain a Master of Engineering degree (or equivalent) in applied mathematics, computer science, machine learning, robotics, or a related technical field. 
* Knowledge in deep learning.
* Preferably you have written a Master´s thesis on deep learning, and have solid theoretical knowledge of foundation models, sensor data, and vehicle autonomous systems.
* Strong coding skills and the ability to demonstrate results through running software on robotic platforms.
* Fluency in English, both in writing and speech.


If you consider this to be your dream job and feel that you have a fair share of what is mentioned above, please apply!

Our offer

We offer a healthy and inspiring workplace with respect for the individual, where you have great opportunities to shape your work and your future. Your personal and professional development is important, and we encourage and support it. We offer permanent relocation support for foreign applicants.

We drive the shift!

Scania is undergoing a transformation from being a leading supplier of trucks, buses, and engines to providing complete and sustainable transport solutions. Together with TRATON and our sister brands MAN, Volkswagen Truck & Bus, and International, we are working to shape the future of mobility with innovative and environmentally conscious solutions. Our values – customer first, respect, team spirit, responsibility, and elimination of waste – are at the heart of everything we do. Together, we are at the forefront of creating a sustainable future.

Role summary

The increasing availability of data collected from connected vehicles presents a unique opportunity to revolutionise the understanding of tyre behaviour and performance in real-world conditions. Tyres play a critical role in vehicle safety, efficiency, and environmental impact, yet many of their key properties—such as wear, rolling resistance, grip, and inflation pressure—remain difficult to characterise comprehensively across diverse operating scenarios.

Today, hundreds of thousands of vehicles are equipped with sensors and telematics systems that generate large-scale, real-time data streams. This data includes information about the vehicle, such as load, speed, tyre pressure, temperature, and ambient conditions, offering unprecedented insights into the complex interaction between tyres, vehicles, and infrastructure.

The ultimate goal is to develop methodologies that allow for nearly real-time assessment of tyre properties under varying operational and environmental conditions. This will support innovations in tyre and vehicle design, predictive maintenance, and sustainable transport strategies. The project contributes to the broader vision of intelligent transportation systems, where data-driven insights enable safer, more efficient, and environmentally conscious mobility.

Candidate profile

The ideal candidate holds a Master’s in Vehicle Dynamics, Mechanical Engineering, Physics, or a related field, with strong analytical skills, the ability to work independently, and excellent English communication. They should be confident presenting insights and committed to becoming an expert in the field.

Skills
Required qualifications:
* Good knowledge of tyre mechanics and vehicle dynamics.
* Competence in data analysis and statistical modelling with tools such as Python and MATLAB.
* Experience working with large datasets and time-series data from sensors or telematics systems.
* Signal analysis and processing.
* Strong problem-solving mindset and a proactive, solution-oriented attitude.
* Excellent communication and presentation skills, able to translate complex technical insights into actionable conclusions for various stakeholders.


Meritorious - preferred qualifications:
* Experience in machine learning applications related such as predictive maintenance or pattern recognition.
* Experience with vehicular simulation tools (e.g., Adams or Simulink).
* Proficiency in Swedish (written and spoken) for effective internal communication.
* Preferably at least 2 years in work life involving engineering work.


We offer

We offer a dynamic, flexible workplace with hybrid work options, including Scania Sergel and Midway hubs. With a structured development plan and courses, Scania supports your career growth both locally and internationally.  

Benefits include training at our health center, Gröndal, or wellness allowance, result bonus, flexible hours, and company car leasing. Scania also hosts events for employees and their families, and Stockholm residents enjoy direct access to Södertälje via Scania Job express buses.

Application

Your application should include a CV and any relevant certificates. We welcome all applicants and strive for diversity in our recruitment processes.

Apply as soon as possible, no later than 2025-05-31. Screening will take place on an ongoing basis during the application period. Logical and personality tests may be used as part of the selection process, and a background check may be required for this role.

Our culture is built based upon delivering added customer value through research and practical experiments that iteratively lead to concepts for industrialization.

Background

Vehicle autonomy has been heavily promoted as a means of improving transportation safety on the roadway. This goal, however, requires the vehicle to possess a high level of scene perception and situational awareness — that is, the ability to correctly perceive and understand the surrounding environment, the other road users and how the scene evolves over time.

One of the reasons why human drivers can safely navigate in complex environments is that they augment their sensing capabilities and anticipate the need to react to potential hazards. As an example, a driver slows down because she foresees the risk of collisions that arises due to the presence of vulnerable road users, occlusions in the traffic scene, or unfavourable weather conditions.

Despite rapid research and innovation in scene perception for autonomous driving, dealing with complex traffic scenes and scalability for the production of L4-L5 capable autonomous vehicles is still challenging.  At the current time, there is no established theoretical and technological framework that enables the same capability for self-driving vehicles – specifically, when dealing with occluded traffic
participants.

Project Description

You will be developing novel theoretical concepts and evaluate these in practice on an experimental testbed. The goal of the project is to investigate and develop a new scene perception module that (1) incorporates multi-sensor information to create a scene representation including possible occlusions; (2) fuses the output of multiple developed algorithms to enhance the robustness of scene perception in different traffic scenarios; (3) integrates scene metadata for context-aware detection, classification and prediction of occluded road users; (4) operates under real-time conditions, which is validated through simulation and real data. The project target is to detect, classify, and track all road participants that share the road network with the ego vehicle.

To achieve these objectives, the industrial PhD students will pursue a multi-disciplinary research in the areas of sensor fusion, environment perception, behavioural learning, prediction, machine learning, artificial intelligence and probabilistic modelling.

This research project will be conducted in an agile multi-cultural research team within R&D. The team is responsible for concept evaluation and software development of environment perception algorithms for autonomous driving.

The results of this research project will be implemented in Scania’s development environment for autonomous driving and they will be experimentally evaluated in operating prototype vehicles (trucks and buses) equipped with sensors and a platform setup for autonomous driving.

Your profile

To apply you should have a master of engineering degree (or equivalent) in applied mathematics, computer science, machine learning, robotics, engineering physics, electrical engineering or in a related technical science or engineering subject

The candidate is expected to have a solid mathematical knowledge and demonstrable programming skills. We look for a candidate who is self-motivated, engaged, that can communicate in a pedagogic way to the team and the rest of the organisation.

Extra meritorious are:

• If you are fluent in English both in writing and in speech.

This research will be conducted in collaboration with Vinnova, FFI and the Robotics, Perception and Learning department at KTH – The Royal Institute of Technology, in Stockholm. Start date: 01st Jan 2021. Number of PhDs: 2

Despite rapid research and innovation in scene perception for autonomous driving, dealing with complex traffic scenes and scalability for the production of fully autonomous vehicles are still challenging – specifically, when dealing with occluded traffic participants.

PhD Thesis Description

This PhD position lies within a bigger research project with the overall target to detect, classify, and track all road participants, specifically the occluded ones (i.e. road participants partly observable by onboard sensors), that share the road network with the autonomous vehicle. Within this PhD position, you will be focusing on the development of novel theoretical concepts and evaluate these in practice on an experimental testbed. The thesis goal to develop algorithms for enabling the prediction of future states of scene objects particularly the occluded ones. These reasoning algorithms will be based upon the prior information for object positions and classes derived from scene context information both perceived (e.g. from objects detected in multi-sensor data) and from scene metadata (e.g. HD maps). The algorithms will have to perform in real-time conditions while being validated through simulation and real data. To achieve these objectives, the industrial PhD student will pursue research in the theoretical areas of sensor fusion, behavioural learning, prediction and probabilistic modelling.

This research project will be conducted a research team responsible for concept evaluation of environment perception algorithms for autonomous driving.

Renewable fuels are a key factor in the pursuit to provide sustainable transport solutions and are a prioritized area for Scania. Especially for long haulage transports, renewable fuels offer a fast-track to lower their carbon foot print. At the same time, society poses ever more stringent requirements for lower emissions, not least regarding particulate matter. In order to meet future requirements, a system-thinking and a close cooperation among different academic disciplines, biofuel producers, vehicle manufacturers and suppliers of exhaust aftertreatment system will be needed.

The FFI project Future Particulate Filters for Next Generation Biofuels is such a cooperation with the focus on how the use of an advanced lignin-based biofuel, as well as other biofuels (e.g. HVO, FAME and biogas), affect the particulate emissions and the performance of the exhaust aftertreatment system. Especially, the project will address how particles from biofuels are filtered, accumulated and regenerated in the particulate filter. The aim is to enable optimization of fuel, engine and particulate filter in order to maximize the powertrain efficiency and minimize emissions of harmful particles.

Your role
Your role as an industrial Ph. D. student is to plan and perform scientific studies on the ash and soot deposition in particulate filters. The research project includes both practical and theoretical parts. A significant part of the project is to set up and commission a test rig for accelerated ash accumulation financed by Scania but placed at Process Technology, KTH. The rig will be used to study the soot and ash deposition in the filters and you will be responsible for designing and conducting the experiments in collaboration with researchers from KTH, Scania and the other partners of the project. Moreover, engine tests and other studies will be performed both at Internal Combustion Engines (ICE) at KTH and at Scania. An important part of the project is also to maintain contact and spread the results between the different partners in the project, i.e. Scania, KTH, RenFuel and Johnson Matthey.

As support you will have close contact with researcher both at academia and at Scania and the other industrial partners.

Your profile
The most important demand we have on you is that you see research and science as something fun and that you have a burning interest for learning new stuff. It is also good if you like doing practical work in the lab, although hopefully that does not mean that you shy away from theoretical discussions and the use of computers. Moreover, it is seen beneficial if you have good communication skills and can write and speak English well. Formally, you have a relevant master’s degree in chemical engineering, mechanical engineering, engineering physics or similar.

About the industrial Ph.D. position
The industrial Ph.D. position is a full-time position formally placed at NXPK (Catalyst and Filter Performance) but you will in practice work at YTMC (Materials Technology for Powertrain Fluids and Aftertreatment) during the 4 year period that the project runs for. A condition for the position is that the applicant is approved as a Ph. D. student by KTH, i.e. fulfil the basic demands for doctoral studies at KTH.

Our culture is built based upon delivering added customer value through research and practical experiments that iteratively lead to concepts for industrialization.

Background

Vehicle autonomy has been heavily promoted as a means of improving transportation safety on the roadway. This goal, however, requires the vehicle to possess a high level of situational awareness---that is, the ability to correctly perceive and understand the surrounding environment, the other road users and how the scene evolves over time.

One of the reasons why human drivers can safely navigate in complex environments is that they augment their sensing capabilities and anticipate the need to react to potential hazards. As an example, a driver slows down because she foresees the risk of collisions that arises due to the presence of vulnerable road users, occlusions in the traffic scene, or unfavourable weather conditions.

At the current time, there is no established theoretical and technological framework that enables the same capability for self-driving vehicles.

Project Description

You will be developing novel theoretical concepts and evaluate these in practice on an experimental testbed. The goal of this project is to investigate and develop a situational awareness framework for decision making based on analysing, understanding, learning, and predicting the surrounding environment and its evolution. The complexity of this systems is given by: 1) scale (a lot of agents); 2) diversity (different kinds of agents; 3) relationships (inter-related agent are interacting with each other and their relationship changes over time); 4) infrastructural support (traffic rules and management systems). The framework will enable the possibility of selecting the most effective and reliable decisions while navigating in uncertain or occluded environments, minimizing the collision risk and maximizing efficiency and safety.

To achieve these objectives, the industrial PhD student will pursue a multi-disciplinary research in the areas of behavioural learning and prediction, machine learning, artificial intelligence, probabilistic modelling, formal- and variational methods.

This research project will be conducted in an agile multi-cultural research team within R&D. The team is responsible for concept evaluation and software development of tactical decision-making and situational awareness algorithms for autonomous driving.

The results of this research project will be implemented in Scania’s development environment for autonomous driving and they will be experimentally evaluated in operating prototype vehicles (trucks and buses) equipped with sensors and a platform setup for autonomous driving.

This research project will be conducted in an agile multi-cultural research team within R&D. The team is responsible for concept evaluation and software development of tactical decision-making and situational awareness algorithms for autonomous driving.

Projektbeskrivning

Forskarutbildningsämne: Industriell produktion

Den pågående transformering mot smarta och uppkopplade fabriker skapar helt nya möjligheter till transparens och visibilitet i intern och extern logistik.

Genom att känna till var material och resurser befinner sig och vilken status de har, kan vi förbättra hållbarhet, effektivitet och flexibilitet. Dagens realtidstekniker och datakraft ger nya möjligheter till detta. Även efterfrågan på exempelvis miljökonsekvensanalys ökar, vilket ställer nya krav på verktygen. I projektet LOVIS (Production Logistics Visibility), där denna tjänst ingår, har vi två perspektiv i samma projekt: intern och extern visibilitet. LOVIS involverar KTH, Lunds Universitet, Scania, AstraZeneca och Odette. Scania och AstraZeneca bidrar med olika perspektiv och erfarenheter kring interna och externa materialflöden. Odette medverkar med sin expertis inom standarder och best-practice. KTH och Lunds Universitet ska skapa en samlad kunskapsbild om intern och extern visibilitet.

Doktoranden kommer att arbeta i en dynamisk forskargrupp vid KTH som i tät samverkan med industri forskar fram nya metoder för analys av avancerade industriella logistiksystem. Doktoranden kommer att tillsammans med övriga forskare bidra till framtagning av nya metoder och applikationer för att beskriva och förutsäga prestanda och beteende i produktionslogistiksystem. Tjänsten inkluderar 20% institutionstjänst vilket kan omfatta undervisning och handledning inom våra utbildningsprogram. Arbetet börjar med en kartläggning av tekniska, processmässiga och organisatoriska förutsättningar och hinder för intern och extern visibilitet inom produktionslogistik. Därefter ska vi ta fram utvecklingsspår mot ökad intern och extern visibilitet, i tät samverkan med industriella parter och standardiseringsorgan.

At Autonomous Transport Solutions (ATS) Pre-Development & Research, Scania R&D, we pursue top-quality research and development of future cutting edge ATS concepts. We operate in agile and self-steered teams that work in close cooperation with the Volkswagen group, leading technology suppliers, and academic institutions, with the ambition to detect and evaluate upcoming technologies. Our culture is built based upon delivering added customer value through research and practical experiments that iteratively lead to concepts for industrialization.

Background

Vehicle autonomy has been heavily promoted as a means of improving transportation safety on the roadway. This goal, however, requires the vehicle to possess a high level of situational awareness---that is, the ability to correctly perceive and understand the surrounding environment and the other road users and how the scene evolves over time.

One of the reasons why human drivers can navigate in complex environments is that they augment their sensing capabilities and anticipate the need to react to potential hazards. However, this skill is not sufficient for many scenarios where impeding dangers are obstructed from view. For example, a car slamming on its brakes two vehicles ahead. With access to information from nearby vehicles, the driver could retrieve pertinent information of the occluded surroundings. In the previous example, the driver can be provided with the visual information of the preceding vehicle, and she would brake in advance avoiding the collision.

Project Description

You will be developing novel theoretical concepts and evaluate these in practice on an experimental testbed. The goal of this project is to investigate and develop a shared situational awareness framework for autonomous connected vehicles enabled by V2X communication. The framework will provide the ability to share information between connected vehicles and/or infrastructure. The vehicle will select the most effective and reliable decisions while navigating in uncertain or occluded environments.

Some of the main research questions are : 1) how much information should each vehicle broadcast; 2) what is the relevant information that each vehicle should broadcast (e.g., velocity, location, intended route, state of the surrounding agents, etc.); 3) how to modulate the amount of information that is sent over the network; 4) How this information can be mediated by smart traffic infrastructure (e.g., connected intersections).

To achieve these objectives, the industrial PhD student will pursue a multi-disciplinary research in the areas of multi-agent systems, machine learning, artificial intelligence, networked systems, probabilistic modelling and variational methods.

The results of this research project will be implemented in Scania’s development environment for autonomous driving and they will be experimentally evaluated in operating prototype vehicles (trucks and buses) equipped with sensors and a platform setup for autonomous driving.

The final applicant in combination with this research project will be submitted to the Wallenberg AI, Autonomous Systems and Software Program (WASP) at the latest 26th April for external founding. As a PhD student within the WASP graduate school additional courses, research visits to partnering universities, and visiting lectures will be offered to support forming a strong multi-disciplinary and international professional network between PhD-students, researchers and industry.

Your profile

To apply you should have a master of engineering degree (or equivalent) in applied mathematics, computer science, machine learning, robotics, engineering physics, or in a related technical science or engineering subject.

The candidate is expected to have a solid mathematical knowledge and demonstrable programming skills. We look for a candidate who is self-motivated, engaged, that can communicate in a pedagogic way to the team and the rest of the organisation.

Extra meritorious is:


• Knowledge and experience within software languages such as C++ and/or MATLAB/Simulink and/or Python along with a keen interest in programming.
• If you are fluent in English both in writing and in speech.

This research will be conducted in collaboration with the Decision and Control department at KTH – The Royal Institute of Technology, in Stockholm, under the supervision of Professor Karl H. Johansson and Associate Professor Jonas Mårtensson.
