The company currently consists of approximately 60 consultants across Sweden, with the Stockholm office being the largest, employing around 40 people. Here, specialist competence and large-scale societal projects are combined with a family-oriented culture, short decision-making paths, and significant individual responsibility.

About the Role

In the role of Technical Lead, you will work on major infrastructure and tunnel projects where you lead and coordinate the rock engineering design. You are responsible for rock engineering issues within the projects and ensure that requirements, dimensioning, and solutions are coherent throughout the entire design process.

The work takes place in various stages, from early investigations to detailed design, where you are involved in rock mechanics assessments, method selection, and the preparation of technical documentation. You play a key role in the technical work and collaborate closely with designers and other technical disciplines to develop functional and feasible solutions in complex environments.

The role involves, among other things:

• Leading and coordinating the design work
• Supporting and leading designers in their daily work
• Being responsible for technical solutions and requirement management
• Ensuring that documentation and materials maintain high technical quality

Here you will have a daily routine with great variation, close collaboration, and the opportunity to take significant personal responsibility.
