Job description
AFRY's Business Unit Advanced Manufacturing has in recent years successfully delivered several large turnkey projects and has the expertise needed for technology-intensive automation projects; from mechanical and electrical design to PLC and Robot programming. We have project groups throughout the country; from Umeå in the north to Olofström in the south. Digitization and large systems are one of our main strengths.
We also support our customers with the construction of mechanical solutions. Part of the time or as a temporary placement with the customer.
We are now looking for you who want to work in our team in Umeå !
To our team, we now want to grow with a mechanical designer who can be responsible for designs in our projects at the customer. Examples of assignments are grippers and peripheral equipment for robot cells such as turning stations, tracks and more. In the projects, you participate in, among other things, the development of concepts, finished manufacturing documents and quotes / calculations until the plant is commissioned and handed over to the customer.
Examples of tasks are:
- Design and calculate equipment.
- Design layout and be responsible for mechanical documentation.
- Participate and sometimes lead installation work.
- Purchase and orders for projects.
- Manage article/spare parts lists.
- Create system and function descriptions.
At AFRY it happens! Working with us gives you access to an invaluable knowledge bank and an extensive collective knowledge. In other words, at AFRY you will develop your skills and contribute to the development of others.

Qualifications
You are a mechanical engineer with several years of experience in construction. We see it as a merit if you have experience of robot automation.
In other words, we believe that you have gained experience of projects where both your creativity and problem-solving skills have been put to the test at regular intervals. In the role you need to be creative, you also sometimes need to be a little square and be able to create structure in the project and make concepts that hold according to the current calculation.
You want to deliver a design where you are just as proud that the technical solution meets design standards and customer requirements as that the concept has been made cost-effective and that the schedule has been kept. As a person, we believe that you are driven, curious and confident in taking your own initiatives.
You speak Swedish and also have good knowledge of English in both speech and writing. For the position, you are required to have a B driving license and that you are flexible as travel is part of your role.
We think it is important that you have the ability to communicate in a clear way to create trust with customers and to give the others in the project team the best conditions to succeed! It is us as a team that delivers the solution and although you will be a key player, you must above all be a team player!
Have we caught your interest? Great! Apply for the position or call if you have any questions! We look forward to hearing from you one way or another!
