Vacant job

THE DESIGNER with a capital D (or perhaps a capital M if you prefer the English term Mechanical Designer)

You don’t have to be boring to be an engineer – but if you happen to be, you are of course also warmly welcome!

About Swedtech Systems

At Swedtech Systems AB, we appreciate all types of engineers – from the creative problem solver with a twinkle in their eye to the methodical analyst who lives for order and structure. No matter what type you are, we have a place for you in our team. Here, it’s about contributing your unique skills and becoming part of an environment where innovation and professionalism go hand in hand.

We are a young company, but our owners are veterans in the industry. They have been around long enough to not only build machines – they can build companies. With over 25 years of experience and a network that spans the entire machine manufacturing industry, Swedtech Systems is a safe place to land. But it is also a place where we dare to try new things, where we are not afraid to fail, and where innovation is our fuel.

With us, the atmosphere is anything but stiff. We like to think differently – square balls, anyone? – and we appreciate designers who dare to do the same. This is a workplace where you can be both an inventor and a precision engineer. We have ambitions, but we also have fun along the way.

About the Role

As a mechanical designer with us, you will work on everything from small machine parts to entire production lines. You will be involved from start to finish – from the first sketches in Autodesk Inventor to seeing the machine spin for the first time. Here, it’s about understanding the whole picture, but also paying attention to the details. We talk about manufacturability, not theories.

You will work on sizing rather than strength calculations, and you don’t need to know difficult mathematical formulas – but a creative mind and a sense of design are good to have. This is not a place where we do what has always been done. We think new and we dare to test.

What We Are Looking For

We are looking for someone who:

• Has at least 2-4 years of experience in mechanical design – or equivalent practical experience. You might be the engineer from college, or you have learned the trade hands-on in production.
• Has worked with Inventor or equivalent CAD software and knows how to turn an idea into a solid model.
• Has a sense of production and design – do you understand what is aesthetically pleasing, practical, and manufacturable? Then we already have something in common.
• Is someone who enjoys being part of a smaller organization where you can really make a difference.

Why Swedtech Systems AB?

Here you get the chance to help shape the future of a company that combines security and entrepreneurial spirit. Our owners are not only experienced, they are also playful and open to new ideas. We work closely together and like to challenge conventional structures. Here, it’s okay to fail, as long as we learn something along the way.

You will be part of a company that:

• Works on exciting projects in machine manufacturing and automation.
• Gives you the freedom to think outside the box (or perhaps outside the square ball?).
• Offers a great atmosphere where coffee, laughter, and an entrepreneurial spirit are the norm.

Location and Application

We are located in Staffanstorp and work hybrid when possible, but your workplace is in Sweden – not on the other side of the world. Start date? Preferably yesterday, but we understand that you may have a notice period (which we see as a good sign that your current employer likes you).
