Ready to Work Hands-On with Technology Around the World?

Kongsberg Gruppen Kongsberg Defence & Aerospace - Missiles & Aerostructures

Global Test Engineer / Technician – Production test

We are looking for a technically skilled and independent colleague to support our production sites around the world in testing, test processes, training, and follow-up activities.

The position involves extensive travel and extended stays at our production sites. The core responsibility is to train and guide local personnel, ensure that testing is carried out in accordance with our procedures, and contribute to consistent, high-quality standards across all locations.

You will work hands-on with test stations and equipment, provide technical support when issues arise, and ensure that local teams understand both how tests are performed and how the equipment is operated and maintained.

Key Responsibilities

• Travel to production sites worldwide and support local teams in performing tests and following established test processes.
• Train and guide operators and technical personnel in test methodologies, operation of test stations, equipment, and software.
• Ensure that testing is performed in accordance with established procedures, specifications, and quality requirements.
• Support the installation, commissioning, and implementation of test equipment and test processes at new and existing production sites.
• Troubleshoot, install, verify, and maintain test stations and associated equipment.
• Document faults, deviations, and solutions, and follow up on corrective actions.
• Collaborate with central engineering teams and technical specialists when issues require specialized expertise.
• Prepare and configure PCs, standardized system images, and test software, and assist with basic network troubleshooting.
• Develop and improve test instructions, user manuals, and training materials.
• Share experiences and lessons learned from production sites with central testing, development, and engineering teams, contributing to more robust and standardized test setups.

Qualifications and Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree or equivalent technical education in electrical engineering, automation, electronics, mechatronics, control systems, IT, or a related field. Relevant qualification combined with extensive practical experience in production, testing, technical service, or industrial environments may be considered equivalent to higher education.
• Good technical understanding of test equipment and production processes, with a systematic approach to troubleshooting.
• Familiarity with PCs, software installation, and standardized system configurations, as well as a basic understanding of networking.
• Interest in IT/OT systems and how production IT supports testing and manufacturing operations.
• Ability to follow technical procedures and quality requirements.
• Good written and verbal communication skills in both Norwegian and English. English is the primary working language in our global projects.
• To be considered for the position, you must be eligible to obtain a security clearance in accordance with the Norwegian Security Act.

Experience in a production environment, technical testing, or working with test equipment is an advantage, as is previous experience in technical training or travel-based technical support roles.

You do not need to be an IT/OT or networking specialist. What matters most is that you are comfortable with hands-on troubleshooting and enjoy learning new systems and technologies.

Personal Qualities

You have strong communication and training skills, enjoy sharing knowledge, and are able to explain technical processes clearly and effectively. You work independently, take initiative, and approach challenges in a calm, solution-oriented, and methodical way, even when working on your own in the field. With a hands-on and practical approach, you enjoy working directly with technical equipment and solving practical technical challenges. You are structured and organized, follow established procedures, and ensure accurate documentation of your work. You are also adaptable and culturally aware, with the ability to build strong working relationships across different cultures, teams, and locations. As the role involves frequent international travel and extended stays at production sites abroad, you must be comfortable with both.

Location: Kongsberg. The role involves a significant amount of travel.

What We Offer

This is a varied and hands-on technical role with extensive international exposure, offering the opportunity to work with test equipment, production processes, and technical solutions across multiple countries. You will play a key role in training colleagues and ensuring consistent testing quality across our global production sites, while working closely with production, testing, IT, and engineering teams. The role also offers excellent opportunities for professional development, as well as the chance to influence and improve testing processes and working methods.

Candidates applying for this position will undergo a background check as part of the recruitment process. The outcome will be considered as part of the overall assessment.

To be considered for the position, you must be eligible to obtain a security clearance in accordance with the Norwegian Security Act.

Please note that the recruitment process will continue in January.
