Could you be the full-time Mechanical Design Engineering in Västerås we're looking for?

Your future role

Take on a new challenge and apply your Mechanical Engineer expertise in a new cutting-edge field. You'll report to Lars Devero (ALM Engineering Manager Nordics, located in Västerås), and work alongside collaborative and humble teammates. ALM is an abbreviation of Asset Life Management, which in short mean life extension of rail vehicles.

The life extension can be of technical characteristics where technical systems are upgraded or exchanged, it can also be of customer experience characteristics, where the interior of the rail vehicle is modernized.


You'll contribute by making mechanical engineering design and integration in the majority of the rail vehicles running in the Nordics.

Day-to-day, you'll work closely with teams across the business (all the way from bid management to production and verification of technical systems on the rail vehicle), technical investigations and much more.


You'll specifically take care of the Mechanical Engineering design and integration of technical systems, but also grow in areas which you are interested in and suit the company needs.

We'll look to you for

  • Work in Bids and projects in the area of rail vehicles
  • Perform mechanical engineering design (from concept to finalized design)
  • Design technical systems to be integrated on rail vehicles
  • Sample of tasks to be performed; mechanical drawings, integration design, BOM (bill of material), technical investigations, requirements management, Risk assessments, and Verification & Validation activities
All about you

We value passion and attitude over experience. That's why we don't expect you to have every single skill.

Instead, we've listed some that we think will help you succeed and grow in this role:

  • University degree in the mechanical engineering field or equivalent experience/education
  • Experience or understanding of 3D CAD design (Solidworks, Catia V5 or equivalent)
  • Structured mindset
  • Communicative
  • Fluent in English
  • Swedish level C2 according to Folkuniversitetet (see further below)


Most of our customers are Swedish and part of the engineering work is to both talk to customers and different functions within Altom.

Being able to communicate in Swedish will be required to be fully operational in the role, thus.

However, Your Swedish does not need to be fluent today, but to cope with the role you need to have come a long way.

You need to be willing to continue developing your Swedish. See further information at

Things you'll enjoy

Join us on a life-long transformative journey – the rail industry is here to stay, so you can grow and develop new skills and experiences throughout your career

You'll also:

  • Enjoy stability, challenges and a longterm career, free from boring daily routines
  • Collaborate with transverse teams and helpful and humble colleagues
  • Contribute to innovative projects
  • Steer your career in whatever direction you choose across functions and countries
  • Benefit from our investment in your development, through awardwinning learning
  • Benefit from a fair and dynamic reward package that recognizes your performance and potential, plus comprehensive and competitive social coverage (life, medical, pension)
You don't need to be a train enthusiast to thrive with us. We guarantee that when you step onto one of our trains with your friends or family, you'll be proud. If you're up for the challenge, we'd love to hear from you
