Do you want to make a difference for Umeå? We’re looking for shift-based Operations Technicians!

By the people of Umeå, for the people of Umeå.

We are an energy and communications company owned by the City of Umeå and everyone who lives here. With reliable and accessible solutions, we ensure that a growing Umeå is always heated, lit, and connected. By sharing knowledge, driving community projects, and supporting a vibrant community life, we’re helping to shape the future.

Your role on our team

As an Operations Technician with us, you’ll:

  • Monitor and control our heating and cooling systems in real time—you’ll ensure that production runs smoothly and that our facilities deliver according to plan—24 hours a day, year-round.

  • Ensure that Umeå’s district heating and cooling reach their intended destinations—at the right temperature and with high delivery reliability for our customers

  • Work closely with both technology and colleagues – you’ll monitor operational status, handle trouble tickets, and actively contribute to improvements at our facilities.

You’ll be an important part of a dedicated team that always puts Umeå first. Your immediate colleagues work with the operation, maintenance, and development of our energy systems—and you’ll be part of an industry that’s constantly evolving.

To succeed in this role, you’ll need:
  • A degree in power and heating operations technology or other college education/experience deemed equivalent

  • A Class B driver’s license

  • Strong teamwork skills

  • Good flexibility

  • Analytical mindset

It’s a plus if you also:
  • Have experience working with combined heat and power (CHP) production and pressurized equipment

  • Have worked with control systems such as ABB 800XA, Siemens, and/or Schneider

With us, you get more than just a job
  • A workplace where we care about each other and the people of Umeå

  • The opportunity to grow and make a real difference

  • Benefits that make everyday life a little easier
