Fuel System Test Engineer, XPI Fuel System, Cummins Scania XPI Engineering

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.

The Södertälje office has grown both in personnel and capability over the last few years and we are at the moment roughly 30 employees, working in 3 separate groups. We are now looking to add an engineer within fuel system testing to the System Performance and Integration team (DIXP). 

Job Responsibilities

As a Fuel System Test Engineer, your primary responsibility will be to operate pump and injector test rigs to deliver high-quality data to our product development teams. You will work with both established testing procedures and custom-developed methods tailored to specific requirements.
In the event of test issues, you will also be involved in failure investigations related to the rig systems. You will act as our representative at the Scania Fuel System Testing department, working closely with engineers and technicians in that team.

 

Additionally, you will collaborate with our colleagues in Columbus, USA—especially the rig testing group—who will provide technical support and guidance for your day-to-day work. Building and maintaining strong working relationships within the global Cummins and Scania fuel systems organizations will be key to your success in this role. Occasional travel to the USA will be required for relationship-building and training purposes.
As we are a small team based in Södertälje, we value a collaborative mindset. We both ask for and offer help as needed, and depending on your skills and interests, you may also be assigned additional tasks to support your colleagues.

Who You Are

We are looking for you, who loves a hands-on job and to share your expertise within a multi-functional team, as well as working on your tasks on your own. You understand the importance of creating good relations, and enjoy collaborating with people both locally and globally. You approach your assignments with an analytical mindset and thorough execution, while paying attention to details. Helping a team member, or reaching out for help comes naturally for you, even though it might be slightly outside our role as test engineer.

 

•    You have an engineering degree or at least 3 years for relevant work experience within automotive testing. Experience from operating fuel system and/or engine testing rigs is considered a strong merit. 
•    You are comfortable using standard software interfaces for controlling the test environment, e.g. Vision and/or INCA.
•    You enjoy working in a lab environment, and to work directly with rig hardware and systems including sensors and measurement system, hydraulic system, controllers, electrical system etc.
•    You have excellent communication skills in both Swedish and English

This Is Us

For the last 20 years, Scania has partnered with Cummins Engine Company in a joint venture to develop and manufacture common rail fuel systems. Today this fuel system, known as XPI, is used extensively on both Scania and Cummins engine platforms. The main product development site for the high-pressure pump and fuel injectors used in the XPI system is located at Cummins Fuel Systems in Columbus, USA and since 2017 a product development and product support office has been established at Scania in Södertälje to allow for a closer cooperation with current and future European customers and suppliers. Being located at Scania has further developed our collaboration with the Scania R&D organization, allowing us to jointly develop and tailor future fuel systems for customers within the Traton organization. We operate with a large degree of autonomy and have responsibility for an exciting portfolio of fuel system development projects.
