About the Role
Do you want a meaningful job where you can make a real difference for both society and the energy transition? With us, you are part of a socially important operation with exciting projects, cutting-edge technology and colleagues who value each other.
We are now seeking several experienced Automation and Communications Engineers who want to be part of building the maintenance operations of the future!
We are facing one of Vattenfall Eldistribution's largest investments ever – a historic mobilization to build stronger, more resilient and entirely self-reliant capabilities in maintenance and repair. At a time when the outside world is placing ever higher demands on robustness and durability, we are taking decisive steps to secure an electricity network that can handle difficult conditions and deliver when it is needed most.
Responsibilities and Tasks
We are now seeking Automation and Communications Engineers who want to strengthen our technology department. We offer you independent and responsible work where you help ensure reliable and modern infrastructure in our facilities throughout the country. Here you have good opportunities for both technical specialization and personal development in the role.
In the Technology & Control Systems Department, approximately 50 engineers work with specialist expertise in automation, communications, control equipment and design. Here you will meet colleagues who are passionate about technology, are happy to share their knowledge and take great responsibility for both quality and safety.

Our work takes place in environments that sometimes involve great heights and potential risks, which is why safety and risk awareness are always at the center. At the same time, our daily work is characterized by collaboration, problem-solving and the opportunity to work closely with the technology that keeps Sweden's electricity network running. Travel is a natural part of the work, mostly during the day but overnight stays do occur.
Requirements Specification
Our approach is characterized by freedom with responsibility and as a person you are driven by taking on challenges, solving problems and reaching set goals. Since you will have contact with both internal and external contacts, we are looking for someone who is service-oriented and enjoys working both independently and in close collaboration with colleagues.
In addition to your personal qualities, we would like you to have:
Education in telecommunications, automation or electrical power, or equivalent practical experience that the employer deems equivalent
Several years of experience working in telecommunications, automation or electrical power
Experience with technology such as fiber optics and radio-based communications, for example 4G and radio links, station bus-based networks according to the IEC61850 standard and IP-based networks

Additional qualifications we value:
Experience from the power industry
Experience of previously leading projects or work, preferably as a project manager, or work experience as a coordinator in the industry
Practical experience of working with and configuring remote control and control equipment, for example RTUs and protective relays
