Vacant job

Why this job is for you If you want to work closely with the product, the process, and the people behind it – and understand that quality is about more than checks and documentation. You see the big picture, understand the value of precision, and thrive in a role where structure and collaboration go hand in hand.

With us, you can combine your technical understanding with your desire to improve. You will be part of a team that works to ensure our customers in Life Science meet the highest standards of quality and safety – while also finding smarter, more sustainable ways of working. Here, you will grow as an engineer and advisor, supported by colleagues who share your curiosity and desire to make a difference.

Within our business area Compliance & Management, we support our customers in the transition to digital, sustainable, and safe solutions. We combine expertise in quality, safety, sustainability, and project management – ensuring that our assignments make a real difference, both for the business and for the people affected.

Job Responsibilities As a Quality Engineer in Life Science, you will work on projects that span the entire product lifecycle – from development to manufacturing and delivery. You play a crucial role in ensuring that processes, systems, and products comply with applicable regulations and standards.

Your responsibilities may include:

• Support in the implementation and improvement of quality management systems (QMS)

• Participation and driving in process mapping, process improvement, and efficiency

• Participation and driving in risk analyses, deviation management, and CAPA work

• Preparation, review, and approval of validation documentation and technical changes

• Contributing to audits, both internal and external

• Management of subcontractors and supplier assessments, including quality review and follow-up

• Driving improvement initiatives within quality, documentation, and processes

• Conducting gap analyses against regulations and standards and proposing improvements

You will work closely with production, development, and project management. Your focus is to create security and clarity – and to help the customer and team succeed through quality.

Qualifications We are looking for someone who thrives in an environment where technology, structure, and teamwork meet. You are curious, analytical, and have the ability to see details without losing sight of the big picture. You have:

• An engineering degree in biotechnology, chemical engineering, medical technology, mechanical engineering, biomedicine, or equivalent

• Several years of experience in quality work within Life Science, pharmaceuticals, medical technology, or another regulated industry

• Knowledge of GxP and ISO 9001 (experience with ISO 13485 and ISO 14971 is a plus)

• Experience working with risk analyses, deviation management, change control, and improvement work

• Very good Swedish and English skills, both spoken and written

If you also have experience in digitization or automation of quality processes, change management, or working with data integrity, we see it as an asset.

With us, you will use both your technical knowledge and your sense of structure to contribute to products that make a real difference for people's health and quality of life.
