Job description

Would you like to help shape the future of industrial automation?
We at AFRY Advanced Automation are experts in industrial automation and are now looking for more dedicated automation engineers to join our team in Stockholm. With us, you will work with technology-intensive and exciting projects where we deliver customized solutions to both private and public customers.

Your role as Automation Engineer
In this role, you will play a key role in all phases of the projects - from concept to commissioning. You will work closely with our customers to develop and implement automation solutions that meet their needs and requirements. Your tasks include, among other things:

  • Programming in PLC, SCADA and DCS
  • Methodical troubleshooting and technical problem solving
  • Documentation and quality assurance
  • Advice and technical support to customers

A strong network and varied assignments
You will be part of a national network of 800xA specialists working with some of Sweden's largest industrial customers. The assignments vary - from minor system upgrades to new construction of entire factories. We offer both individual expert services and complete solutions, and the work takes place both at the customer and in our in-house projects at the office.

Qualifications

As you will be working to find solutions to advanced challenges, we are looking for you who love to think creatively and solve problems. You thrive in collaboration with others, create engagement and build strong relationships - while taking responsibility and driving the work forward. We also see that you have a desire to develop and contribute to the success of both your colleagues and our customers.

  • Relevant education in the field or equivalent work experience.  
  • Many years of experience as an automation engineer and good knowledge of working in ABB's software, ABB 800xA. If you have also worked with older ABB products AC450 and MP200 and with system assignments, this is a merit but not a requirement. 
  • B-driving license as travel in the service occurs.  
  • Good knowledge of Swedish and English, both in speech and writing. 

Further information

The deadline for applications is January 31, 2026. Selection is ongoing and the position may be filled before the deadline.
