Your Role

As a mechanical designer, you will be responsible for the development and design of mechanical systems and components for defense technology applications. You will work throughout the product development process - from concept and detailed design to production documentation and change management. You will be involved in the design and further development of robust systems for military applications. The work is carried out in various integration projects, such as integrating a weapon system into a vehicle, creating a command post from a container with an integrated workspace with computers, etc.

You will collaborate closely with electrical designers, systems engineers, and production to ensure a robust and manufacturable solution.

Examples of tasks:

• 3D modeling and detailed design in Autodesk Inventor
• Creation of assemblies, drawings, and tolerance settings
• Management of product data and revisions in Vault
• Design of sheet metal, welded, and machined components
• Material selection based on strength, weight, and environmental requirements
• Preparation of manufacturing documentation and assembly instructions
• Change management and technical documentation
• Technical support to production and verification

Your Profile

We believe you have a relevant post-secondary education and/or work experience from similar roles. You also have good experience with Autodesk Inventor Professional 2024 and PDM management in Vault. To succeed in this role, you have a good understanding of drawing standards, tolerances, and production technology. You also have experience in mechanical design within industrial operations.

We would like you to have previous experience in configuration management and change management, and experience working in the IFS Sherpa business system is considered an advantage. Experience from the defense industry or other operations with high quality and documentation requirements is also advantageous.

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.
