Job Description:
Do you have a genuine interest in mechanical design and want to work with the development of the vehicles of the future?
Now we are strengthening our team in Stockholm and are looking for experienced design engineers who want to work on qualified assignments within Automotive.
With us, you will have the opportunity to work through the entire development chain – from concept and prototypes to finished product and industrialization.
Our mechanical design team, based in Haninge, works with the development of components and systems within Automotive, focusing on, among other things, drivetrains, chassis, packaging and installation. Our assignments are with some of the industry's leading players and cover both passenger cars and heavy vehicles.
In the role of mechanical design engineer, you work with design and product development in advanced customer projects, where you often become an integrated part of the customer's organization. You contribute both technical expertise and drive in deliveries, and work with everything from concept development and detailed design to the production of 3D models and drawing documentation. The work is performed in CAD tools such as CATIA V5, Creo or equivalent, and you are involved throughout the entire development process, from idea and prototype production to finished product and industrialization. The role involves close collaboration with cross-functional teams within development, production and purchasing, as well as responsibility for analysis, follow-up and documentation of technical solutions. You also maintain an ongoing dialogue with both customers and internal stakeholders to ensure quality and progress in the projects.
