About the Role

Do you want to become an important part of the energy transition? Vattenfall Services is Sweden's leading contracting company in the energy and power sector, and we are developing Sweden's energy infrastructure! With us, you will work in a future-oriented industry with a strong focus on a sustainable future. We need more energy heroes who want to make a difference together with us, for the entire society.

Vattenfall Services Teknikakademi is a 7-month program where you get the chance to specialize as either a Control Systems Engineer or Designer. The training includes both practical work in your intended department and digital lectures led by the University of Väst.

The program starts in the fall of 2026 with a joint introduction for all new employees. In addition to deepening your technical knowledge, you will also gain a large network. You will complete the theoretical components together with the other participants in the Teknikakademin and receive support from experienced colleagues who will help you develop in your role.

As a Designer, you will belong to a department consisting of several Designers whose main task is to create the electrical design for substations and power plants in CAD. The designs include circuit diagrams, connection tables, cabinet layouts, and relay block diagrams. These can be complete electrical designs or design adaptations.

Vattenfall Services does not own any substations or power plants but always works on our customers' facilities. We primarily work from the office but also conduct some field visits.

Requirements Specification

We are looking for someone who is driven, curious, and enjoys solving complex problems. You work in a structured manner and always have safety in focus — at Vattenfall Services, safety always comes first.

You have a strong technical interest and appreciate working closely with others. As a Designer, you will have many points of contact and therefore need to be skilled at collaborating with different professional groups and stakeholders, both internally and externally.

We know that you will develop together with us, but we would like you to already have:

• Higher vocational education or equivalent in electrical power, grid design, preparation, or project planning, concluding no later than spring 2026. Alternatively, you are currently working as an industrial electrician, substation or signal technician, automation technician, preparer, or designer/projector in property, electricity, or electrical power.
• Good knowledge of Swedish and English, both written and spoken.
• Driving license B.
