In short

Saab, a leading defense and security company, is collecting open applications for mechanical engineering roles at its Karlskoga office, covering positions such as mechanical designer, mechanical engineer, tooling designer, electromechanical designer and project manager. Work involves requirements management, specification, design, verification, documentation, modeling, testing and drawing creation for defense products, using tools such as Catia, 3DExperience and 2D drawings. The position requires passing a security clearance process, which may involve citizenship requirements. This is an open/spontaneous application, not a specific posted vacancy, and candidates ranging from early-career to expert level are welcome.

About the Role
Are you driven by seeing your ideas become reality? Welcome to our exciting and technology-intensive world.
For us, technology is more than design and mechanics. It's the heart of our business. What challenges us, inspires us and keeps us engaged. As a mechanical engineer, you will be involved in requirement specifications, and based on this, construct and develop mechanical solutions for our products, working with requirements management, specification, design, verification and documentation. Your future tasks may include anything from modeling, testing, evaluation of results, creation and updating of drawing documentation, as well as providing technical expertise to other departments, suppliers and customers. We run both large projects that demand collaboration skills and smaller projects that demand independence — and you, together with your team, are an important piece of the puzzle in our journey toward creating the next generation of defense systems.
We offer a stimulating work environment where you will have the opportunity to develop and grow within the field. You will be part of a team that supports you and your personal development.

We are looking for you with knowledge and experience in, among other things, tools and software such as Catia, 3DExperience, and 2D drawings. Other tools and technical platforms also occur.
Our teams are diverse, and we believe that different perspectives and experiences can help create even better solutions. So regardless of previous experience and work background, you are more than welcome to join and shape the technology of the future.
