Product Development Engineer - Drilling Tools

Would you like to work in a global company and play a part in its success? Sandvik Coromant encourages new ideas and can provide you with great opportunities for development. We are looking for talented people who would like to extend their professional and educational potential. You have the skills and we can help you put them to good use.

Due to our increased ambitions within Research and Development (R&D), we are now looking for a Product Development Engineer for our Drilling department in Sandviken. As a Product Development Engineer in our team you will play a central part in securing our position as a leading global supplier of tools within metal cutting. You will discover a creative and international environment where the work is done in a modern and innovative way. The organization is dynamic, with a variety of people and ideas. The mix of backgrounds, competencies and experience makes for a creative and exciting work environment.

Key performance areas
We are a creative and future-oriented team that always strives to give our customers better solutions and to raise the bar for our competitors. We are responsible for the whole process, from idea to launched product, and we are a vital part in ensuring our customers' future success. The main challenges we are facing are to find great new solutions for our coming products, speed up our development and build knowledge platforms for the future.

As a member of our team, you will work with inspiring, friendly and very skilled colleagues, and together we will develop and design outstanding tools for the metal cutting industry, while having a lot of fun. Your primary role will be to focus on the design of the cutting inserts, but you will also play an important role in securing the performance of the inserts as well as the complete tool. You will also plan and carry out tests in our local test facilities and globally in our customers' production.

We will put a lot of effort into your personal development, since we have a strong belief that that is beneficial for both you and us.

Your profile
We expect that you have a degree in engineering, or the equivalent work experience. You need to have CAD experience, and experience within metal cutting, product development, design and simulation is advantageous. Experience within the field of drilling is an advantage, but not a requirement for this position. As the work involves some international contacts, English is required, while Swedish is an advantage. You also need to be able to do some traveling.

As an individual you are open to new ideas and new challenges, are driven and gladly take the initiative. You are structured in your work and have an analytical working style. You are also a team player, with the ambition to develop, learn and solve problems.

We actively work to create a workplace that is characterized by diversity and inclusion.
