We create smart innovations to meet the mobility challenges of today and tomorrow. We design and manufacture a complete range of transportation systems, from high-speed trains to electric buses and driverless trains, as well as infrastructure, signalling and digital mobility solutions. Joining us means joining a truly global community of more than 75 000 people dedicated to solving real-world mobility challenges and achieving international projects with sustainable local impact.

We are looking for a Propulsion System Engineer for our location in Vasteras, Sweden.

Purpose of the role

As a System Engineer your main responsibilities are to describe the complete propulsion system electrically in collaboration with fellow engineers, to perform performance calculations and to prepare and execute system tests. Acting System engineer means collaborating with other propulsion engineering departments in order to ensure that the entire systems operates as intended. This means you will have an overview of the entire propulsion system from components up to vehicle level. Even though we strive for standardization each project is unique and therefore you will be working with new solutions blended with proven technology. As we are a leading propulsion supplier, we always look to include new solutions and improve our design, while maintaining standardized solutions.

Your main context is in your project team but you are also expected to support parallel projects with reviews and participate in the department's development. Your project team usually consists of a project manager, technical project leads and electrical, mechanical and functional engineers. This position includes frequent international contacts as most of our projects are delivered to customers worldwide, ranging from London to Singapore.
