Job Description

At AFRY Advanced Automation in Västerås, we specialize in delivering complete automation solutions for the process and manufacturing industries. We work with everything from PLC, HMI, and SCADA programming to system integration, commissioning, and optimization of complex facilities. Our team combines deep technical expertise with innovative methods to create efficient, safe, and sustainable solutions. With us, you’ll have the opportunity to work with the latest technology on projects ranging from new turnkey installations to retrofits and advanced commissioning.

A typical workweek may vary depending on the project phase. You may work on programming in-house or be on-site with a client to ensure deliveries. Regular check-ins with the project group and the team are a natural part of the job to keep you updated on what’s happening in our department.

We are looking for someone with a few to many years of experience who takes responsibility for their own work. You are expected to help drive projects forward and identify opportunities for new client assignments for our services. Over time, we envision you developing into a more driving role in projects, participating in the preparation of bid documents, and serving as a mentor for younger colleagues on the team. 

You will have the support of experienced colleagues on the team, although some assignments may require you to work independently. The role may in the future include security-classified assignments, as several of our clients have such requirements. 

Qualifications

In this role, it is important that you are a problem solver and have the ability to analyze complex situations to find effective and sustainable solutions. You are results-oriented and work in a structured manner to achieve set goals, while maintaining a strong drive to deliver high-quality results. We also see that you are proactive, take responsibility, and dare to suggest improvements that contribute to the project’s success. Finally, you are service-oriented and enjoy building strong relationships, both internally and with our customers, always striving to provide the best possible support and service. 

Requirements
