Systems Engineer in Railway Systems at AFRY

Do you want to help accelerate the transition to a more sustainable society? We are now looking for a systems engineer in railway systems at AFRY with the possibility of flexible stationing location. Apply today as we are working with ongoing selection.

ABOUT THE POSITION

AFRY is a leading European company with a global reach in engineering, design, and consulting. At AFRY, there are 19,000 dedicated experts in infrastructure, industry, energy, and digitalization, creating sustainable solutions for future generations.

AFRY's railway organization is national with offices from Örnsköldsvik to Malmö, and through close collaboration, they assist their clients in complex assignments ranging from the idea and concept phase to commissioning. The projects within the Railway Systems section include areas such as signaling systems, railway vehicles, and homologation/various types of third-party reviews. We are now looking for a systems engineer who is ready to take on an exciting everyday life in the railway industry. The tasks are varied and involve requirements specification, implementation, verification, and validation, as well as delivery and testing in the facilities or vehicles. In this role, you will work with everything from quotation work, requirements specification, project planning, and follow-up to report writing, client meetings, and supplier discussions. This role can advantageously be combined with the role of an administrator within AFRY's review operations, where you perform third-party reviews within the subsystems of signaling, rolling stock, energy, and safety integration. It is a significant advantage if you have previously worked project-based where you have had your own responsibility for organizing your work, as the role requires you to be largely self-driven.

You are offered

WE ARE LOOKING FOR YOU WHO
