Are you driven by seeing your ideas become reality?
Welcome to our exciting and technology-intensive world.
Your Role
As a mechanical designer, you will be involved in developing new products as well as further developing and maintaining our existing solutions. Our products include systems, devices, and software for airplanes and helicopters.
The work primarily takes place in the CAD tool CATIA V5 and the analysis tool Ansys. A significant part of the role involves various types of calculations and analyses. You will also participate in tests, such as design and qualification tests, to verify and ensure our solutions. Here, you will have the opportunity to tackle technically complex applications, with exciting challenges including installation in tight spaces and requirements for vibration, strength, and temperature resistance.
You will be part of a close-knit and dedicated team where diverse experiences are highly valued, and ideas are discussed openly and without prestige. We offer good opportunities for personal and professional development, with ample room for your own initiatives, creativity, and responsibility. We encourage those who want to grow, broaden their skills, and take on new tasks or technical areas.
Your Profile
We believe that strong teams are built through a diversity of skills, experiences, and perspectives. Therefore, we meet you where you are in your development and place great importance on both your personality and your willingness to grow. We are looking for a mechanical designer who is curious, engaged, and wants to continue developing in the field.
As a person, you are cheerful, positive, and unpretentious, with a natural curiosity and strong collaborative skills. You find the opportunity to work through the entire development chain exciting, and you are as creative and innovative in the concept phase as you are structured and meticulous in the detail and implementation phases.
To succeed and thrive in this role, we believe you have:
- A Master's, Bachelor's, or equivalent degree in mechanics, mechanical engineering, or product development.
- Good communication skills in Swedish and English, both spoken and written.
Previous experience in avionics/mechatronics is an advantage. We prefer that you have worked in a CAD environment, preferably in CATIA V5. A significant part of the work involves optimizing cooling through thermal analyses, making a background in calculations a great advantage, preferably with tools like Ansys or Flotherm XT.
Please note that we are working with continuous selection, and the position may be filled before the application deadline has passed.
The position requires you to undergo and be approved according to the applicable security protection regulations. For positions where Saab has requirements for security classification, this may entail requirements for certain citizenship.
What You Will Be Part Of
Discover endless possibilities. Take on challenges, create smart innovations, and upgrade your skills. This is a place for clever thinkers, brave pioneers, and everyone in between. Together, we achieve the extraordinary, each bringing their unique perspective. Every contribution counts.
