AFRY offers services in technology, design, digitalization, and consulting. We are dedicated experts in industry, energy, and infrastructure, creating value for future generations. AFRY has Nordic roots with a global reach. Our shared principles – Result driven, Client centric, Empowering, and Accountable – guide us in how we work, develop, and succeed together. Join us in accelerating the transition to a sustainable society.

Job Description

Our department within Electrical & Automation at AFRY currently consists of a group of 25 colleagues based in Jönköping. We work with everything from electrical design, programming, risk assessments in machine safety, project management, and electrical inspections. With us, you are part of a team that enjoys working together. With our broad and deep expertise, we have the opportunity to help both our customers and each other succeed and develop. We are part of the Pulp & Paper Sweden business area.

As a senior automation engineer with us, you will work on automation assignments across various industries, focusing on manufacturing and local customers. Your focus will be on programming industrial control systems (PLC/HMI/SCADA) and commissioning – from feasibility studies and solution proposals to verification and commissioning in both test environments and at customer sites.

The role will involve programming and commissioning, troubleshooting and optimization, documentation and reporting, as well as close collaboration with colleagues and customers. Assignments may, in some cases, require security clearance, now or in the future.

The group consists of knowledgeable and engaged colleagues where experience and knowledge sharing is a strong part of the culture, with extensive and broad expertise as support in daily work.

We primarily work in project form and collaborate with colleagues in other geographies and technical areas. AFRY consists of a fantastic world of engineering expertise in a variety of fields. When we weave these together, we can offer the market something unique. This gives you opportunities to tap into AFRY's broad knowledge and develop – not least in programming and commissioning and, for the right person, also towards project management in the long term.

Qualifications

To succeed in this role, we believe you are motivated by working in a challenging and dynamic work environment and are solution-oriented and proactive in what you take on. That said, we know that we together need to create the right conditions for this, which is why we also value your collaboration and communication skills as well as your initiative.

To fit into the role with us, we believe you have:

• At least 5 years of experience as an automation engineer.
• Documented experience in programming and commissioning within industrial automation.
• Knowledge regarding installation, assembly, and commissioning.
• Relevant university or vocational education (or equivalent experience)
• Good knowledge of Swedish (native level) and English in both spoken and written form; German is a plus.

It is advantageous if you have:

• In-depth knowledge of industrial automation and/or experience in driving parts of projects.
• Specialization in programming industrial control systems
