You will contribute to a global environment where colleagues and customers from diverse backgrounds come together, bringing different perspectives to achieve shared goals.

Our culture is built on collaboration, innovation, and trust where it is encouraged to try new ideas, make decisions, and learn from experience.

The position is based in our Underground division in Örebro, just a short distance from the city center, with easy access to nature and training facilities.

Your mission

As a System Test Engineer within HIL, you will develop and improve automated test methods for the HIL environment using tools such as Python/Pytest, NI Veristand, and Vector CANalyzer.

You will review and analyze requirement specifications from a testing perspective, ensuring that test coverage is both effective and efficient.

Part of your role will involve reviewing existing test methods with a focus on automation and continuous improvement.

You will document HIL tests through clear and structured test specifications and reports, supporting software releases for both Material Handling and Drilling machines.

During testing, you will identify, report, and help track bugs and issues, contributing to high product quality.
