Summer gives us the opportunity to pause. When the pace slows down and the calendar isn't as full, it also becomes easier to reflect on what you want to do next. Perhaps you are happy where you are – or maybe the thought of a new challenge is taking shape. If autumn feels like the right time for the next step, perhaps your next chapter begins at Nexer.
As a consultant at Nexer, you will work on varied assignments within different technologies and industries. With us, every assignment is a chance to grow – we strongly believe in development. We also believe in sustainable and long-term employment, where competence development and work-life balance are natural parts of everyday life.
Your next challenge
At Nexer in Linköping, we are now looking for an experienced PLC and Automation Engineer who wants to work on programming and customizing autonomous industrial vehicles.
Our clients are found in industries such as manufacturing, defense, and other technology-intensive operations where automation and smart logistics solutions play an increasingly important role. Here, you will work with advanced control systems where you combine PLC programming, troubleshooting, and technical problem-solving to create customized solutions that work in reality.
As a consultant with us, you become part of a team with high competence and great engagement. You work on varied assignments with different clients, combining automation, troubleshooting, and technical problem-solving in close collaboration with production, maintenance, and development. This role suits you if you enjoy immersing yourself in new environments, building relationships, and creating value through robust and customized solutions for autonomous industrial vehicles.
Examples of assignments
You may, among other things, work on:
Programming and customizing PLC-based control systems for autonomous industrial vehicles
Adapting functions and logic based on the client's operations and needs
Troubleshooting and analyzing the interaction between sensors, motors, control systems, and PLC logic
Testing, verifying, and commissioning autonomous industrial vehicles
Working closely with electricians, mechanical engineers, and automation engineers
Optimizing function, operational safety, and performance in existing solutions
Contributing to the further development and improvement of automation solutions
We believe that you
...like technology, but also the consultant role. You enjoy immersing yourself in new operations, building relationships, and helping various clients find sustainable solutions. Whether you are a specialist in one area or have a broad technical profile, you are driven to develop together with both clients and colleagues.
You also have:
Experience with PLC programming, such as Structured Text, FBD, or Ladder
Experience working close to hardware and in production-oriented environments
Very good troubleshooting skills in electrical, control, and automation
Experience with commissioning and practical testing
Ability to read electrical diagrams and understand how automation systems are structured
It is an advantage if you also have experience with:
Fieldbuses and industrial networks
Machine safety and safety functions
Programming or customization of mobile automation solutions, AGVs, or similar systems
The role requires that you can communicate fluently in both Swedish and English, both verbally and in writing. This is an important prerequisite for succeeding in client dialogues and in collaboration with the team.
Since the role involves consulting assignments with different clients, we also see that you enjoy working in varied environments. Travel occurs in some assignments, so it is an advantage if you are comfortable with a certain amount of travel.
As a person
You are analytical, structured, and have a genuine interest in technology. You thrive when solving complex problems close to the physical product and are motivated by seeing how your solutions work in reality. You appreciate collaboration with other technical areas and enjoy translating client needs into stable and well-functioning automation solutions.
Who are we at Nexer in Linköping?
At Nexer in Linköping, you will work on exciting and developmental assignments in both the public and private sectors. We collaborate with operations in some of the most technology-driven industries, such as automotive, defense, and advanced industry.

With us, you become an important part of the local team, where we place great emphasis on community, security, and belonging. We want to create the right conditions for you to develop based on your drives, ambitions, and goals.
Our values – Passion & Execution – permeate our way of working and collaborating, both with clients and with each other.
The assignments are carried out either at the client's site, in Nexer's own premises, or from home – often in a flexible hybrid solution. In some assignments, you work independently; in others, you become part of a team together with several colleagues from Nexer.
