• Cross-functional Collaboration: Contribute to good cross-functional collaboration and coordination of development work with Sourcing and Operation and other engineering departments.

• Testing and Verification: Initiate and order testing to evaluate and verify design, and in consultation with the manager, handle the purchase of necessary components for these tests. • Technical Quality Assurance: Check and approve purchase drawings according to applicable standards, as well as continuously report outcomes and possible deviations to the responsible manager. What we offer you: "Customers depend on us. Our focus isn’t optional - it’s what keeps terminals running and trust alive."

• Rewards that truly count: We offer meaningful development opportunities through varied assignments, fair and gender-neutral pay, and flexible working conditions - all within a culture that values your growth and celebrates success.

• Safety that moves us forward: Build your career with a company rooted in safety since the 1940s, ensuring stability and an environment that empowers you to speak and be heard. • Purpose that drives change: You'll contribute to solutions that transform global trade, creating environmental and operational innovations. You'll be in the driver's seat of ideas, developing digital and mechanical technologies that set industry standards and position us as the forerunner. • People who move together: You'll collaborate with people who build lasting relationships through global expertise, connections, and a commitment to sustainability. Become part of our global network of 485 R&D Engineers, driving innovative, sustainable solutions and making an impact worldwide. What you bring to the role:

• Relevant Engineering Degree: B.Sc. or M.Sc. in Mechanical Engineering, Automotive Engineering, or equivalent technical discipline.

• Mechanical Product Development: Proven hands-on experience in mechanical engineering design and end-to-end product development. • Powertrain Expertise: Solid technical foundation within powertrain systems, drivetrain components, and mechanical power transmission is considered as an advantage. • Digital Engineering Tools: Practical proficiency in modern CAD and PDM environments (hands-on experience with Catia is a strong advantage). • Heavy Vehicle Know-How: Prior exposure to non-road mobile machinery (NRMM), heavy-duty rubber-tired vehicles, or related equipment is considered as an advantage. • Structured Execution: Analytical mindset with a results-oriented approach to problem-solving, quality assurance, and technical drawings. • Collaboration & Communication: Fluent English skills (written and spoken) with a collaborative spirit; Swedish language proficiency is an appreciated plus.
