About the position

With our client, you are welcomed to a company with strong technical competence and assignments that make a real difference. You will join a team of five field service technicians. Your role is based at the office in Arboga, but the majority of your working time will be spent in the field at the company's customers, who are primarily active in the defense sector.

As a field service technician, your main tasks involve handling installation, inspection, repair, testing, and maintenance of advanced radar systems. The role involves traveling throughout Sweden, both independently and in a team. Part of your work is performed in a mast and involves climbing, so it is important that you are comfortable working at heights. When not in the field, you perform tasks in a workshop environment where you prepare materials and repair equipment. The role also includes certain administrative parts, such as technical documentation. You are also expected to have direct contact with the customer to plan your work and provide support. In the long term, you will also train users in the technology.

You are offered

• A role in a supportive and competent team that promotes continuous competence development
• Comprehensive onboarding and the opportunity to learn from scratch, even if the industry is new to you
• Training in electrical and telecom work at heights, as well as welding/sandblasting training if needed
• A secure role in a growing industry

Responsibilities

• Perform inspections and repairs of radar installations
• Troubleshoot and rectify technical problems on-site at the customer's and in a workshop environment
• Document your technical work, interpret technical manuals and diagrams for maintenance and repair
• Handle customer dialogue and conduct training

We are looking for you who

• Have previous experience of working in a technical role where you have gained good technical/mechanical understanding and ability to troubleshoot
• Are comfortable working at heights
• Have a strong technical interest
• Communicate fluently in Swedish, both spoken and written, as well as unimpeded in English, as this is required in daily communication
• Have Swedish citizenship, which is required as the position is classified for security
• Have a B driver's license and are open to travel within Sweden

It is an asset if you have

• Experience of welding, material processing, sandblasting, or painting
• Experience or training in working at heights
• Work experience within the Swedish Armed Forces

To succeed in the role, you have the following personal qualities:

You are a curious person who enjoys a varied daily routine and likes to travel. You enjoy working practically with the products as well as having customer contact. You like to solve technical problems and take your own initiatives to find solutions to technical challenges you may face. As you are part of a team, we believe you are a communicative and social person who works well in collaboration with others, while also being comfortable becoming more independent in the role in the long term.
