Project Engineer Automation – Help Develop Future Automation Solutions

Are you passionate about automation, control systems, and technical solutions? Do you enjoy working closely with both customers and colleagues and want to follow a project all the way from idea to commissioning? Then you might be the Project Engineer in electrical automation we are looking for.

At Zeppelin Power Systems, you will become part of our Engineering team and take on a central role in developing and delivering automation solutions for our applications. You will work in an international environment together with sales, procurement, workshop, logistics, and our customers to ensure that every project is executed with high quality and according to plan.

About the Role

As a Project Engineer in Automation, you are responsible for the technical coordination of our major projects – from sales support and design to commissioning and project closure. You ensure that the technical solution meets the customer's requirements, that the correct materials are ordered, and that the project is delivered according to contract, budget, and schedule.

The role involves many interfaces and suits you if you thrive on combining technology, project management, and problem-solving. You will also interact with customers, suppliers, control/certification bodies, and Caterpillar regarding technical issues and solutions.

Your Responsibilities

Among other things, you will:

• Support the sales department with technical solutions and documentation prior to sales.
• Participate in customer meetings and contribute technical expertise in automation and control systems.
• Prepare and review technical documentation, drawings, and design materials.
• Ensure that order confirmations, technical specifications, and delivery times are correct.
• Plan and coordinate projects together with sales, procurement, workshop, and logistics.
• Provide technical support to production and follow projects through the entire execution phase.
• Coordinate handover prior to commissioning and support during startup and testing.
• Plan material requirements and initiate purchases together with the procurement department.
• Monitor project economics, handle deviations, and ensure good project profitability.
• Act as the technical contact person for customers, suppliers, and classification societies.
• Ensure that all technical documentation and delivery materials are complete prior to delivery.
• Participate in project closure and contribute to continuous improvements of our working methods.

You have a strong interest in automation and control technology and are motivated by finding smart technical solutions together with customers and colleagues.

We believe you have:

• A university degree in automation, power systems, electrical engineering, or equivalent technical education.
• Experience with technical projects within automation, control systems, or marine applications.
• Good understanding of PLC, HMI, and automation systems.
• Experience with AutoCAD or similar design tools.
• Good computer skills and experience with technical documentation.
• Very good knowledge of English, both spoken and written. Swedish is an advantage.

It is an extra advantage if you have experience with control systems from, for example, DEIF, ComAp, or Deep Sea, or have worked with Caterpillar's automation and control systems.

To thrive in this role, we believe you are

• Structured and meticulous.
• Independent and responsible.
• Solution-oriented and analytical.
• Curious and engaged with new technology.
• Communicative and skilled at collaborating with both customers and colleagues.
• Comfortable making decisions and driving issues forward.

What We Offer

At Zeppelin Power Systems, you have the opportunity to work with advanced automation solutions in an international operation where technology and innovation are at the center. You will become part of an engaged team with high competence and get to work with some of the industry's most well-known products and suppliers.

We offer a varied role with significant personal responsibility, short decision-making paths, and good opportunities for development – both technically and professionally.
