Educating the future CAD designers is about making a difference.

In close collaboration with successful companies in the Gothenburg region, we ensure that our programs are relevant and precise, allowing students to enter the workforce directly after graduation.

Responsibilities

We are looking for teachers for our vocational training programs in CAD design. The programs include both theoretical and practical components and have a clear connection to the labor market and current industry needs.

As a teacher at Yrgo, you will work closely with the labor market, including during LIA (internship). A central part of the role is to work project-based with students and to develop and implement courses that are industry-relevant, technically current, and pedagogically adapted for adult learners.

As a teacher with us, you are responsible for planning, implementing, and developing your courses in close collaboration with the principal, educational leaders, and colleagues. The role involves contacts with the labor market, both by managing existing collaborations and building new ones, primarily related to the work in the management groups of the programs and to LIA. You will work with:

• planning courses, developing course materials, and teaching CAD design
• working project-based with students in design and development projects
• participating in the work around LIA in collaboration with educational leaders and the labor market
• supervising students during their thesis work
• conducting examinations, grading, and course evaluations
• developing courses and programs together with colleagues and industry
• monitoring your field and maintaining good contacts with the labor market.

Qualifications

We are looking for someone with a relevant technical background. You are a university or civil engineer, or have a vocational education in areas such as mechanical engineering, product development, or CAD design, along with several years of work experience in the field.

You should have good knowledge in some of the following areas:

• CAD design and drawing techniques
• mechanical design
• product development
• materials science and manufacturing methods
• 3D modeling and technical documentation
• CAD and PDM systems, such as Creo, CATIA, SolidWorks, or equivalent.

The position requires that you can work independently, take responsibility for your teaching, and structure your work well. You have good collaborative skills, are communicative and flexible, and possess good pedagogical abilities and a genuine interest in adult learning.

Personal Qualities

You are relationship-building, responsible, and engaged in your role. You work in a structured and solution-oriented manner, focusing on quality and development. In your interactions with students, colleagues, and partners, you act professionally and with high integrity.

Of course, you share Yrgo's values: personal, engagement, dignity, and modernity. We strive for diversity and welcome applicants from different backgrounds.
