We are reaching out to our incredible #BestCommunityEver with an exciting professional opportunity. We are currently seeking a specialized External Vehicle Preproduction Researcher to collaborate with our development team on a paid basis, offering both full-time and project-based engagement options. If you have ever dreamed of contributing your expertise to the evolution of SCS Software, we invite you to explore the details below.

As the driving force behind Euro Truck Simulator 2 and American Truck Simulator, vehicles are at the absolute heart of everything we create. The journey of every truck featured in our titles begins long before the first 3D model is rendered. It starts with meticulous, comprehensive research—and this is where we intend to bolster our capabilities.
This pivotal role involves investigating real-world machinery and their complex components based on our internal technical specifications. You will be responsible for authenticating data accuracy and synthesizing your findings into structured, high-quality reference materials for our vehicle artists. Beyond mere data gathering, this position requires a keen eye for detail—knowing which mechanical nuances are essential for a high-fidelity simulation and understanding how to balance depth within our engine’s technical parameters.
We are searching for candidates with practical, boots-on-the-ground experience in the automotive or logistics sectors. This includes professional truck drivers, heavy vehicle technicians, manufacturing specialists, or logistics experts. If you possess a deep understanding of how heavy-duty vehicles operate from a mechanical and functional perspective, you may be the perfect fit. Furthermore, a thorough familiarity with our game world is considered a significant asset.
