Your future role

Take on a new challenge and apply your system engineering expertise in a new cutting-edge field. You’ll work alongside passionate, motivated, and dedicated teammates.

You'll play a key role in ensuring the success of our projects by developing and managing brake system solutions. Day-to-day, you’ll work closely with teams across the business (project management, purchasing, cross-functional engineering teams), act as the technical interface for stakeholders, and contribute to critical engineering calculations, and much more.

You’ll specifically take care of defining project-specific brake system architecture and leading engineering teams across various domains, but also support installation, testing, and troubleshooting activities at test tracks or customer sites.

We’ll look to you to:

• Analyze external requirements (customer specifications, standards, norms, and regulations) and internal rolling stock requirements to define the project-specific brake system architecture.
• Take full engineering ownership of the brake system, acting as the technical interface for project management, purchasing, customers, and cross-functional engineering teams, and functionally lead the engineering team responsible for system definition and component design across mechanical, pneumatic, electrical, electronic, and software domains.
• Perform engineering calculations, including pneumatic system and component sizing, with knowledge of train brake performance and air consumption calculations.
• Prepare engineering non-recurring cost (NRC) estimates and contribute to technical risk assessment for projects.
• Define the test and validation strategy, prepare test specifications, evaluate test results, and produce approval and certification documentation in coordination with the validation and RAMS teams.
• Support installation, testing, commissioning, troubleshooting, and brake performance validation on test tracks or customer sites, including travel as required.

All about you

We value passion and attitude over experience. That’s why we don’t expect you to have every single skill. Instead, we’ve listed some that we think will help you succeed and grow in this role:

• Engineering degree in automatics, electronics, electricity, or mechanics
• Solid knowledge in brakes
• Strong experience in the railway industry
• Knowledge of validation processes and tools
• Familiarity with measuring equipment and test benches
• A strong commitment to rigor and autonomy
• Teamworking skills to collaborate effectively in a multicultural environment
• Fluency in English; Swedish is an advantage but not a requirement

Things you’ll enjoy Join us on a life-long transformative journey – the rail industry is here to stay, so you can grow and develop new skills and experiences throughout your career. You’ll also:

• Enjoy stability, challenges, and a long-term career free from boring daily routines
• Collaborate with transverse teams and helpful colleagues
• Contribute to innovative projects
• Utilise our flexible and inclusive working environment
• Steer your career in whatever direction you choose across functions and countries
• Benefit from our investment in your development, through award-winning learning
• Progress towards greater responsibilities and leadership opportunities
• Benefit from a fair and dynamic reward package that recognises your performance and potential, plus comprehensive and competitive social coverage (life, medical, pension)

You don’t need to be a train enthusiast to thrive with us. We guarantee that when you step onto one of our trains with your friends or family, you’ll be proud. If you’re up for the challenge, we’d love to hear from you!
