Experienced Mechanical Engineer
Ji'nan, CN, 250102
Transport is at the core of modern society. Imagine using your expertise to shape sustainable transport and infrastructure solutions for the future. If you seek to make a difference on a global scale, working with next-gen technologies and the sharpest collaborative teams, then we could be a perfect match.
What you will do
At Volvo Construction Equipment Technology (China), you will contribute directly to the transformation of our products, our industry, and a more sustainable society.
As an Experienced Mechanical Engineer, you will take ownership of critical structural systems that define the durability, safety, and performance of Volvo’s flagship loaders and excavators — including in the era of electrification.
You will:
-
Design, develop, and optimize critical structural components, such as undercarriages, linkages, frames, and major load-bearing structures for global wheel loaders and excavators.
-
Own components across the full lifecycle — from concept design and CAD, through verification, industrialization, and SOP — ensuring cost efficiency, quality compliance, and alignment with Volvo’s global machine standards.
-
Act as a technical owner for assigned components/systems, making informed engineering trade-offs between performance, durability, manufacturability, and cost.
-
Collaborate cross-border in English with global engineering teams (EU, South Korea, etc.) to resolve field issues, perform root-cause analysis, and implement robust design upgrades.
-
Support structural solutions for electrification-related installations, including battery systems and high-voltage components, ensuring safety, robustness, and serviceability.
岗位职责|你将做什么(为什么这个岗位重要)
在 沃尔沃建筑设备技术(中国)有限公司,你将直接参与公司、行业以及社会向可持续方向转型的进程。
作为一名资深结构工程师(Experienced Mechanical Engineer),你将负责沃尔沃全球主力装载机/挖掘机产品中关键结构系统的设计与交付,这些结构系统直接决定了整机的耐久性、安全性和性能表现,在电动化时代尤为关键。
你将负责:
-
设计、开发并优化关键结构件,包括底盘、连杆机构、车架、主要承载结构等,服务于全球市场的装载机和挖掘机产品。
-
端到端负责结构件全生命周期:从概念设计、CAD建模、仿真验证到工业化和SOP,兼顾成本、质量和全球标准要求。
-
作为所负责结构件/系统的技术Owner,在性能、耐久性、可制造性和成本之间做出专业工程判断。
-
与欧洲、韩国等全球工程团队进行英语技术协作,共同解决现场问题,开展根因分析并实施设计改进。
-
支持电动化相关结构与安装系统(电池、高压部件等)的结构设计,确保安全性、可靠性和可维护性。
Your Future Team
You will join the JTC Structure Team, a highly skilled engineering group acting as system owner for both:
-
Conventional structural systems (frames, arms, linkages, undercarriages), and
-
E-mobility installation systems, enabling electrified machines.
The team is deeply involved in Virtual Product Development (VPD) and physical validation, and plays a key role in ensuring that Volvo machines meet demanding requirements for durability, safety, NVH, and cost — across global markets.
Here, structural engineering is not a support function, but a core contributor to product competitiveness.
你将加入济南技术中心(JTC)结构团队,这是一个具备深厚经验的核心工程团队,作为:
-
传统结构系统(车架、工作装置、连杆、底盘等)的系统负责人
-
电动化(E-mob)安装系统的系统负责人
团队在虚拟产品开发(VPD)和实物验证方面经验丰富,在整机耐久、NVH、安全和成本目标实现中发挥关键作用。
在这里,结构工程不是辅助职能,而是产品竞争力的核心组成部分。
