The unit's activities rest on three pillars – development, training and wartime unit production. For the Swedish Armed Forces' units to be able to operate, they need functioning equipment, and for that FMTS is an important cog. FMTS has functional responsibility for the technical service within the Swedish Armed Forces, which includes following technological development to anticipate future needs but also to propose changes and improvements. Here there are exciting development opportunities for those with a technical interest, both at basic and highly advanced levels.

Every day and every hour our employees make efforts that affect other people's lives, both large and small, both at home and around the world. In the Swedish Armed Forces there is a strong value base built on openness, results and responsibility. Professional development and personal health are valued and encouraged. There are good conditions for internal career mobility, health promotion and a good balance between work and private life. The Swedish Armed Forces utilize the qualities that diversity and equal gender distribution bring to the organization. We therefore welcome applicants with different backgrounds and experiences in our recruitment. Employment with us involves placement in a security classification.
