Are you driven by complex technical systems, advanced problem-solving, and tackling technical challenges head-on? Do you want a job where your analytical skills contribute to one of Sweden's most critical operations? Forsmark is now looking for you, with a strong engineering mindset, who wants to take overall responsibility for the plant's technical status, safety, and long-term development.
About the role
As a Systems Engineer at Forsmark, you will have a strategic and technically exciting assignment. You become the "owner" of specific systems at the facility and are responsible for their function, availability, and lifespan.
Stepping into the nuclear power world requires patience and a solid development year where you familiarize yourself with complex regulations and systems. Therefore, your journey begins with a tailored development plan and a rotation where you are supported by senior mentors to grow into the role step by step. For the right person, there is a fantastic career ladder here where you quickly build up unique expertise in cutting-edge technology and safety culture.
What we offer:
- A comprehensive onboarding package with training and competence development
- Salary supplement for those commuting at least 50 km to Forsmark, for example, for those living in Uppsala, Gävle, or Tierp
- A perfect entry-level role where you get development and the privilege of combining both practical and strategic work
Responsibilities
- Perform preventive and corrective maintenance on measurement, control, and protection systems
- Calibrate, check, and verify instruments (e.g., pressure, temperature, flow, and level)
- Troubleshoot and rectify disturbances in instrumentation and automation systems
- Participate in audits, shutdowns, and projects within instrumentation and control systems
- Document performed work according to current procedures and regulatory requirements
- Participate in analyses of operational disturbances and contribute to improvement measures
- Ensure that work is carried out according to safety regulations and quality requirements
- Collaborate with operations personnel, engineers, and other technical functions
We are looking for someone who
- Has a relevant post-secondary engineering education (university or civil engineer, e.g., in mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, technical physics, energy technology, or automation) or equivalent work experience.
- Has good system understanding within mechanics, electricity, or instrumentation and control.
- Has experience in technical analysis, investigations, or documentation.
- Has good knowledge of Swedish and English in both speech and writing, as the role involves a lot of documentation and regulatory requirements.
It is an advantage if you have
- Experience from process industry, power production, or other safety-critical operations.
To succeed in the role, you have the following personal qualities:
- Goal-oriented: We see that you set and strive for ambitious goals and results. That you work diligently on difficult, tedious, or less prestigious tasks until they are completed.
- Stable: Has a stable mood and the ability to resist impulses.
- Helpful: Helps and supports others.
