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 recruiting several experienced Control System Engineers who want to help build the future maintenance operations!
We are facing one of Vattenfall Eldistribution's largest investments ever – a historic mobilization to build stronger, more resilient, and completely in-house capability in maintenance, troubleshooting, and repair. In a time when the outside world demands increasingly higher standards for robustness and durability, we are taking decisive steps to ensure a power grid that can handle difficult conditions and delivers when needed most.
Responsibilities and Tasks
As a Control System Engineer, you will be part of our engineering department, a competence-driven part of Vattenfall Eldistribution with approximately 50 engineers across the country. The role involves strong focus on safety, quality, progress, and commitment. Safety is the guiding star in everything we do; in a high-risk environment, we look out for each other and create security together.
Your main responsibilities:
Maintenance testing
Commissioning, configuration, and testing of control systems
Troubleshooting and relay switching
Work with remote controls and other station equipment
Minor design adjustments in connection with commissioning
Day trips are a natural part of the position, but trips with overnight stays may also occur. On-call duty may be part of the assignment.
Requirements
Our working approach is characterized by freedom with responsibility, and as a person you are therefore driven to take on challenges, solve problems, and achieve 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. You are structured, thorough, and take responsibility for both quality and safety in your work.
In addition to your personal qualities, we would like you to have:
Post-secondary electrical power education or equivalent work experience in electrical power
Several years of experience working with control systems/testing in the voltage range 0.4-400kV
Good knowledge of electrical power systems
Good computer skills
B-class driver's license
