  • EU regulations and the F-gas regulation

  • Drilled borehole storage, geothermal heating, geothermal cooling and other thermal energy storage

  • Large or technically complex installations

  • Data halls, laboratories or industrial cooling systems

  • Energy system analysis or system optimization

  • Commissioning or technical responsibility in projects

You have a relevant technical education, such as civil engineering or university engineering, or equivalent work experience.

Personal qualities

As a person, you are analytical, solution-oriented and enjoy working with complex technical issues. You are happy to share your expertise and contribute to the development of both projects and colleagues.

As our assignments are carried out in close dialogue with customers, it is a requirement that you master Swedish well in both speech and writing.
