Are you a solution-oriented person looking for a unique design engineering role? Are you drawn to a job where you can unleash your creativity? Seize the opportunity to become part of BAE Systems Hägglunds exciting journey.

Your Future Challenge

We are currently seeking an experienced Design Engineer for the Armament and Fire Control Systems unit. The unit consists of 14 experienced employees and several consultants.

As a designer within weapon systems, you will enjoy a free and independent role with ample opportunity to express your creativity in the design process. You will also have the chance to develop into an expert in the field and receive all the support you need to succeed!

Your primary area of work will be weapon and ammunition systems for the CV90 and tracked vehicle platforms. You will play a vital role in the development and design of new systems as well as the modification of our existing ones. A significant portion of the work will be carried out in the 3D CAD program Catia v5.

The role also involves conducting interesting analyses and checks, as well as participating in testing and verification processes.

The development of our vehicles always takes place in close collaboration with the customer. Therefore, the work also includes adapting systems to meet both our customers' requirements and our internal standards.

You will have many points of contact in this role. With your specialist knowledge, you will support the systems department in developing conceptual designs, and when systems are to be assembled, you will be present in production and/or at the customer's site.

Reporting is to the Unit Manager. Daily work is project-based, so in these projects, you will report to a Team Leader or Sub-project Manager.

The Ideal Candidate

We are looking for someone with a creative streak and a desire to become an expert in the field.

We believe you are an educated Mechanical Engineer or have equivalent practical experience. A few years of experience in mechanical design work is an asset, but we also welcome recent graduates if you have the right motivation and the right hands-on skills.

You must have good knowledge of 3D CAD.

Proficiency in Swedish and English, both spoken and written, is a requirement.

A background in the military sector is considered an asset.

What You Will Be Part Of

With us, you will have fun at work, and no two days will be the same! You will be part of the journey from idea to finished product. You will work with future technology in a global company where you have great opportunities for competence and career development.
