About the Company
GKN Aerospace Sweden is part of GKN Aerospace, which manufactures engine components, aircraft structures, cabin windows, wiring, and much more for many of the world's aircraft. The companies in the Aerospace division working on engine parts together form Engines, and at our facility in Trollhättan, we develop and manufacture advanced parts for aircraft and space rocket engines. We also work with engine maintenance.
We have production facilities in Trollhättan, Kongsberg (Norway), Mexico, and the USA. We also have an engineering office in Bangalore, India, and offices in Stockholm (Public Affairs) and Gothenburg. The headquarters for Engines is located in Trollhättan.
Your Responsibilities
The Rig Support department currently consists of nine engineers who together drive and coordinate preventive and corrective maintenance, improvements, and development of our test apparatus and engine facility. Most of the testing is currently done on the RM12 engine for Gripen C/D, both for maintenance and development engines. In parallel, we are working on the introduction of the RM16 engine for Gripen E, with test resources being built up gradually over the coming years. Ahead lie several major infrastructure projects – ranging from new construction replacing older installations to renovations and modifications of existing facilities.
As part of our team, you will have varied work where no two days are the same. One moment you might be out in the facility following up on an installation, the next you'll be in the office planning upcoming projects for test apparatus and engine testing.
Your areas of responsibility also include:
• Planning and preparation of preventive/corrective maintenance as well as procurement of services and spare parts.
• Ensuring that assignments follow budget, schedule, and quality requirements.
• Documentation according to standards and with high quality.
• Active participation in business development of processes and routines.
• Responsibility for quality, environment, and work environment in projects.
• Development and updating of drawing documentation (NX, AutoCAD)
