About the role

Aptiv Gothenburg Student Engineer Initiative
Each year, we welcome several Student Engineers to join our team in Gothenburg. Our long-term goal is to support your development and transition into a permanent role. Here's how the journey typically looks:
- Part-Time during Semesters : You’ll be employed on a part-time basis during the academic year, with a recommended workload of 1–2 days per week.
- Full-Time during Summer : We offer full-time contracts over the summer period, while ensuring you have the flexibility to take vacation.
- Ongoing Collaboration : We aim to extend your contract for as long as it’s mutually beneficial and you're interested in continuing.
- Master’s Thesis : You’ll have the opportunity to complete your master’s thesis (or equivalent project) with us.
- Permanent Employment : Our ambition is to offer you a permanent position after graduation. Note however that this is dependent on current needs and is not a guarantee.

At APTIV’s Gothenburg site we value autonomy, responsibility and our community. You will be trusted to work in interesting projects ranging from internal R&D to customer facing projects.
As a person, we believe you to be positive, an avid solutions seeker, and a strong team player. In return, we promise you the opportunity to drive the automotive industry beyond the future in a global and responsible organization.
Your Background
