to apply for the job

If you want to be part of an expansive, world-leading company that manufactures elevators for the construction and industrial sectors and also offers community and good benefits, you should apply to work with us! We are now looking for an ambitious and driven electrical designer who wants to be part of our success.

About the company

Alimak Group Sweden AB, located in Skellefteå, was founded in 1948. The company is now the world's leading manufacturer of rack and pinion elevators. The operation in Skellefteå has about 350 employees and is part of the Alimak Group. We offer a developing job in an environment where quality, technology, and safety are at the center.

Here you will find component welding, CNC-controlled machines and press brakes, laser cutting machines, welding robots, and robots with vision systems. This could be your arena to develop the production process and thereby strengthen the company's competitiveness.

About Skellefteå

Skellefteå is the largest coastal municipality in Norrland and Sweden by area, and a place with unusually good conditions for sparking new ideas, realizing dreams, and choosing your own path. With changing seasons, rich natural resources, short distances, and a strongly rooted culture of creativity, entrepreneurship, and equal meetings, we create time and space to grow through perhaps the most valuable thing of all: our own and each other's ideas.

Your tasks

As an electrical designer, you will work on developing projects involving the design of electrical systems for rack and pinion elevators and traction elevators. In this role, you will work on customizing electrical systems to customer orders, upgrading existing elevators, and special projects. The work includes traditional electrical design as well as practical elements such as testing and evaluating components and technical solutions.

Your role involves contributing to product development through idea generation, technical design, and 3D modeling.

Your background/Your qualities

We are looking for someone who is an engineer in electrical/automation or has acquired equivalent skills through work experience. If you are an electrician with practical experience in CAD work, we also see this as a good foundation for developing in the role. You have knowledge of electrical design, electrical theory, and electrical components and equipment. The job requires good IT skills, and experience with AutoCAD or similar systems is an advantage.

We place great importance on your personal qualities; both your ability to collaborate and your drive to achieve results are important traits for us. The job requires that you have a high quality awareness, are structured and flexible, and see opportunities in changes. Being able to express yourself well in both spoken and written Swedish and English is a requirement.

We offer you

At our facility in Skellefteå, both development and manufacturing of our products take place, which means that you will have the opportunity to follow your design all the way – from idea and drawing to production and testing – before it is delivered to customers worldwide. At Alimak, you will work closely with technology in an environment where knowledge sharing, quality, and development are in focus, and where we actively support you in your professional development.

We are looking for employees who thrive in an environment where problem-solving and collaboration go hand in hand and who want to contribute, influence, and make a difference by meeting and exceeding our customers' expectations. As an employee at Alimak, you will become part of a strong community where the interest in technology is shared and where both individuals and the organization are given the opportunity to develop. In addition to a stimulating job, we also offer several shared benefits, including:

  • Opportunity for flexible working hours.
  • Reimbursement for dental care/vaccination costs.
  • Reimbursement for massage costs.
  • Reimbursement for gym membership costs.
  • Access to physiotherapist, doctor, psychologist, etc. via occupational health services.
  • Access to a mountain cabin.
  • Department activities where the company contributes with staff funds.
