As a Project Engineer at the Swedish Transport Administration (Trafikverket), you will contribute to a safe and stable railway system and the development of future railway maintenance. With your experience in project administration, you will be a welcome addition to the team responsible for maintaining the railway's power supply facilities in southern Sweden.

Trafikverket's power supply facilities provide energy to the railway at voltage levels of 15–130 kV with a frequency of 16.3 Hz, as well as a 50 Hz auxiliary power network at voltage levels of 6–130 kV.

As a Project Engineer, you will assist the project manager and the team with a wide variety of tasks. You will be a key player in the team's work regarding progress and financial reporting.

The maintenance of the railway's power supply is part of Trafikverket's current development initiative, where new development platforms are being established to create conditions for increased learning and more efficient asset management. You will help pave the way for improvements. To thrive in this role, you need to be curious about technology and have a desire to develop.

As a Project Engineer, it is important to be collaborative, adaptable, and free from hierarchy, with the ability to find solutions that benefit all parties.

You are confident in yourself and have the courage to voice your opinions.

• Holds a valid driver's license for passenger cars.

Merits:

• Knowledge and education in building technology.
• Experience with railway power supply facilities and associated building technical challenges.

The project covers a large geographical area, which means that business travel is involved.
