Etteplan is a leading engineering company shaping the industries of the future. With over 4,000 technical specialists globally, we combine deep technical expertise with a strong focus on people, collaboration, and long-term solutions. We offer opportunities to work closely with clients and colleagues on complex, socially vital projects in an international business environment where your experience truly makes a difference. We are looking for experienced and committed mechanical designers across the Mälardalen region who want to take the next step in their careers. If you are used to taking technical responsibility, contributing with senior expertise, and thrive in environments where quality, safety, and innovation are natural parts of everyday work, we want to hear from you. As a senior mechanical designer at Etteplan, you will work closely with our clients on their delivery and development projects. You will play a key role in technically demanding assignments where your experience contributes to robust, sustainable, and well-founded design solutions. We offer hybrid work, combining work at the client site with collaboration in an experienced project team at our office. Projects may cover the entire or parts of the development chain—from feasibility studies and concepts to detailed design, verification, and further development of existing products. A major focus is on large delivery projects within the railway industry, nuclear power, and large electric motors. Here we work with technically complex systems, often with high safety, documentation, and traceability requirements. If you have experience or a particular interest in weldments, heavy structures, trains, or nuclear power, you will fit very well with us. We have many clients in the region, creating both variation and long-term engagement in assignments. There is room to influence the content of your role—what would you like to deepen your knowledge in moving forward? We value your experience and your way of taking responsibility in technically demanding contexts. You are confident in your role, work systematically, and contribute a holistic perspective to projects. You also enjoy close dialogue with clients and colleagues, acting as a sounding board, problem solver, and technical advisor. We prefer candidates with a civil or university engineer degree in mechanical engineering or equivalent, over 10 years of relevant experience in mechanical design, solid experience designing and working with weldments and/or heavy structures, excellent knowledge of one or more design tools such as Solid Edge, SolidWorks, Catia V5, Creo, Inventor, or NX, and the ability to communicate fluently in Swedish and English, both spoken and written. You are solution-oriented, methodical, and responsible. You appreciate quality in both technology and collaboration, and maintain a professional demeanor in client dialogues. A high level of ambition and willingness to share knowledge and contribute to others' development are valued. Due to many clients from the defense and energy sectors, Swedish citizenship is required; dual citizenship is acceptable if it is Sweden + another NATO country. We offer a secure and long-term employment with collective agreement, strong pension solutions (ITP and flexible pension), and a clear, structured salary review. We provide real flexibility through hybrid work and flextime, focusing on balance and sustainability. You will also be covered by private healthcare insurance, occupational health services, a generous wellness allowance, and the possibility of a company car. Modern technology and home office benefits are also available, along with a transparent career model with multiple development paths, even for senior specialists. Please note that applications are accepted until August 23, 2026, and the selection process will begin in early August, which may delay feedback. We appreciate your patience and understanding.
