Our Operations

Our department consists of approximately 60 employees and is characterized by a good atmosphere and close cooperation between different professional groups within healthcare. Working in medical technology is often a challenging and exciting job that involves the procurement, maintenance, and advisory services for medical technology products, as well as the training of healthcare personnel and students. Medical Technology is certified according to ISO 9001 and ISO 13485 and operates throughout the entire Region of Uppsala.

Your Role

We are looking for an engaged and motivated employee to work with qualified medical technology tasks. You will be part of the Surgery and Optics group, where the main focus lies within the area of surgery.

The work includes both corrective and preventive maintenance of medical technology equipment. Corrective maintenance involves troubleshooting and rectifying faults, for example within imaging and video systems connected to surgical equipment.

In addition to the daily work with equipment, the group participates in procurement processes, evaluation of clinical methods, coordination of test setups, drafting of service agreements, and investigation of medical technology deviations.

An important part of the role is also ongoing contact and good cooperation with suppliers and healthcare staff, which places high demands on communication skills and computer literacy.

Your Qualifications

We are looking for you with a university or civil engineering degree with a focus on medical technology, or another technical education/experience considered equivalent by the employer. You have good knowledge of Swedish and master technical English in both speech and writing. Competence and interest/experience in image and video signals, databases, servers, and wireless networks/WLAN are meritorious, as a large part of our equipment contains and/or is integrated with IT systems. A B-class driver's license is desirable as our customers are located throughout the Region.

Your Competencies

We place great emphasis on your personal qualities and are looking for someone who is curious, unpretentious, good at collaborating, and who wants to contribute to our positive work climate. In your work, you need to be meticulous and responsible, as well as capable of independently planning and carrying out your tasks. The plan for the day can change quickly if situations arise, and then we solve the challenges together as a team, which is why we appreciate qualities such as flexibility.

We Offer

We offer a permanent full-time position with a start date as agreed. A probation period of up to 6 months may apply.

Region Uppsala values the qualities that equal gender distribution and diversity bring to the operations and welcomes applicants of all genders and with different birth backgrounds, functionalities, and life experiences.

Region Uppsala mobilizes all permanent staff based on the needs of the total defense. This means no obligations for the individual employee in peacetime but is solely a planning measure.

Before a decision on employment, checks of suspicion and criminal records are conducted for all job seekers who in the applied position may come to work within psychiatric care, habilitation, care of children and youth, or compulsory care of addicts, areas covered by optional register extracts. This thus applies to all who will work close to patients, even if the tasks at present are not intended to mainly involve work with the aforementioned patient groups.

This recruitment is conducted entirely through Region Uppsala's own channels, and we decline phone calls from recruitment agencies and advertising sales.
