You will focus on mechanical maintenance, troubleshooting, and ensuring a smooth and efficient production flow.

A bit about the role

At Stegra, we’re not just building a plant – we’re proving that sustainable industry is possible. And to do that, we need people like you. As a Mechanic in our Meltshop team, you’ll be part of the Mechanical Maintenance unit, reporting to the Maintenance Manager while taking responsibility for preventive and corrective maintenance on critical meltshop equipment. You’ll work closely with operators, technicians, and engineers to ensure safe, efficient, and reliable operations, supporting one of Sweden’s most ambitious industrial projects in sustainable steel production.

What you’ll do:

• Maintain mechanical, pneumatic, and hydraulic systems through preventive and corrective actions to ensure reliable production.
• Collaborate with operators, technicians, and other team members to identify and implement technical improvements.
• Troubleshoot and repair mechanical, hydraulic, and electrical components to minimize downtime and support safe operations.
• Inspect and assess equipment for wear, vibration, and lubrication issues, taking proactive measures to extend service life.
• Contribute to the optimization of maintenance programs and continuous improvement initiatives across the facility.
• Train and support team members in specific maintenance procedures and equipment handling.
• Ensure a safe and well‑organized working environment by applying Lock Out, Tag Out procedures and maintaining cleaning routines.

What you’ll bring:

• Extensive experience in heavy industry, with a strong advantage if you’ve worked in steel production or a similar environment.
• Hands‑on skills in maintaining and repairing mechanical, pneumatic, and hydraulic systems.
• Relevant vocational education in mechanics or a related technical field—or equivalent practical experience.
• Documented training in workplace safety and health standards (e.g., OHSA or European equivalent).
• Familiarity with Swedish and EU safety regulations.
• Willingness to work shifts, including rotating schedules when needed.
• Good knowledge of English; Swedish is a plus.

What you’ll get:

• A permanent position in one of Sweden’s most exciting industrial projects.
• Competitive salary and benefits package in line with Union‑negotiated agreements.
• 25 days of annual leave, in accordance with Swedish labor standards.
• Full relocation support, including housing assistance, travel arrangements, and relocation compensation.
• Visa sponsorship where applicable.
• Modern, purpose‑built facilities in Boden with a focus on safety, sustainability, and innovation.
• A supportive and inclusive work environment where everyone is encouraged to grow and thrive.
