Company Description

AFRY offers services in engineering, design, digitalization, and consulting. We are dedicated experts in industry, energy, and infrastructure, creating value for future generations. AFRY has a global reach with deep roots in the Nordic region. Together, we accelerate the transition to a more sustainable society.

About the Role

With a proud history and an exciting future, the nuclear power industry is the place where you can make a real difference in shaping tomorrow's energy landscape. At Nuclear Sweden, we work closely with our clients, executing projects of various sizes ranging from complex modernization projects, replacement projects to decommissioning projects. In other words, we have a broad competence that allows us to help both our clients and each other to grow. Join us at Nuclear AFRY and let’s create a better and greener world together!

We currently have a need to strengthen our team and are looking for more automation engineers. In the role of automation engineer, you will work as a consultant on various assignments in the nuclear power industry, either directly within the client's organization or in one of our in-house projects.

Our assignments vary from shorter maintenance projects to longer and more complex modernization projects where we are usually involved right from the project analysis stage. We work on advanced and challenging projects within the fields of automation and digitalization. Within the group, collaboration and mentorship are key principles, and we always help each other develop in the best way. The work may include, but is not limited to, the following tasks:

• Design, systemization, programming, verification, and commissioning of automation projects within the nuclear power industry
• Actively contribute to feasibility studies, investigations, support, and service commitments
• Participate in the sale of technical support and meetings with clients and subcontractors
• Participate in the development of methods and tools for streamlined engineering and improved quality

Since the position operates in security-classified areas, you will need to undergo drug testing and security clearance before employment can begin. To work in security-classified areas like this, Swedish citizenship is required.

Requirements Specification

Competence comes in various forms and packages, but what unites us at Nuclear is that we all see ourselves as Brave, Devoted, Teamplayers. This means we enjoy collaborating with each other rather than competing, and we are driven and curious to constantly learn new things.

As you will often be working on parallel assignments in this role, it is also important that you have the ability to quickly absorb new knowledge and create structure in your daily work. This is to adapt to different types of expectations and manage your projects in the best way, both for yourself and your clients.

In addition to these personal competencies, we are looking for someone who has:

• Post-secondary education in automation or a related field
• Experience working independently as an automation engineer in industrial projects
• Good knowledge of ABB 800xA
• Good knowledge of Swedish in both spoken and written form, as Swedish is frequently used within AFRY and with our clients
• Driving license B, as travel is a natural part of the role

We consider the following as merits:

• Experience with ABB Advant AC450
• Experience from the nuclear power industry

The location for this role is Uppsala, Gävle, or Västerås. Travel occurs on a weekly basis to our clients' nuclear power plants.
