Who Are We?

As an Instrument Technician at Ringhals, you will be part of the operational technical group responsible for preventive and corrective maintenance such as calibration, troubleshooting, and repair of sensors in the field for our control systems.

We work together in teams across various areas, including protection and control systems for the reactor and turbine, support systems for activity measurement, public address system, telephony, physical security, and fire alarms. This work is done in close collaboration with our maintenance engineers. We aim to share our expertise and maintain an open climate where all questions are welcome. The deep expertise we have in-house is something we are proud of and consider a significant strength. The goal is to continue to nurture and develop this expertise over time, where you will be a key player for us.

To thrive in this role, we think you are someone who enjoys variety, takes responsibility, and is adept at planning and structuring your day. You will collaborate with colleagues both within and outside your group, so being a team player is vital for success.
