Hardware Designer at SAAB
SAAB ABStockholms län, Järfälla
Are you driven by seeing your ideas come to life?
Welcome to our exciting and technology-intensive world.
Your Role
Are you a university or engineering graduate looking to deepen your knowledge in hardware design? Are you also an initiative-taking person who enjoys developing technical solutions for support systems/system rigs and maintaining them? You now have the chance to grow alongside 8 competent hardware designers and systems engineers who are all looking forward to welcoming a few more colleagues to the team.
In the role of hardware designer for System Rigs, you will work with your closest colleagues to develop high-quality development rigs, maintain and further develop them over time. You will be responsible for designing, procuring materials, assembling, testing, and maintaining your design, as well as providing support to the people using your system. The time required to develop a support system can vary, but often you will work on longer projects together with colleagues from the integration and verification section. You will also collaborate with colleagues who work on software development for the rigs.
In addition to hardware designers, the group also consists of systems engineers, RF developers of simulators, and individuals who develop circuit boards. The experience level in the team varies, and the group has a strong cohesion. Many in the team have extensive knowledge both in the field and about SAAB's other products, which is very valuable; knowledge is shared continuously among colleagues in a natural way. There is a commitment to maintain the positive atmosphere that has been built up.
The group's work spans a broad technical field, which provides good opportunities for development, and there is also room for those who want to find their niche. In this role, you will also have the opportunity to visit other units within SAAB in Sweden in connection with environmental qualification or customer contact.
Your Profile
As a person, we believe you have gathered valuable experience, either in this area or in a related field. What matters most to us is not exactly where you come from, but that you have a genuine interest in both hardware design and SAAB as a company. You thrive on taking responsibility, drive your work forward independently, and dare to take the initiative when you see opportunities for improvement.
To succeed in this role, we also see that you are curious, technically interested, and have a natural sense of service. You communicate clearly and find it easy to build good relationships with colleagues, suppliers, and customers. You work methodically and structured, but also have the ability to be flexible when the situation requires it. Since the role involves both troubleshooting and practical work, we prefer that you are someone who does not hesitate to roll up your sleeves when needed. You are social, enjoy sharing your knowledge, and are inspired by collaborating with others. At the same time, you have an analytical eye and can make wise decisions even when the parameters are not entirely clear. Great emphasis will be placed on personal suitability - we are looking for someone who wants to grow with us and contribute to SAAB's continued success.
We are looking for someone who:
- Has an academic degree as a university or engineering graduate in Electronics.
- Has a few years of experience in hardware design - analog and digital, as well as good knowledge in schematic and layout design and circuit board pattern design, but also cable construction.
- Has knowledge of other components in electrical systems.
- It is an advantage if you have an understanding of measurement technology with knowledge in the RF area or have worked with various tools for electronic design such as Mentor Graphics.
The position requires you to undergo and be approved according to the applicable regulations for security protection. For positions where Saab has requirements for security classification, this may, in some cases, involve requirements for certain citizenship.
