You are probably educated as a mechanical engineer or have other relevant education; mechanical technician/technologist, Master in Mechanical Engineering or equivalent.

The department currently consists of 18 highly qualified colleagues distributed across teams within automation/electrical hardware, software and mechanical development. We form the technical backbone of the company and are characterized by competent engagement, collaboration and not least a very good sense of humor. We are housed in Scanvaegt's headquarters in Aarhus N at a convenient distance from both the city and the motorway network.

  • have previously worked in SolidWorks or similar 3D CAD
  • can work both independently and in a team-based environment
  • are positive, structured and systematic
  • are fully proficient in Danish and English both spoken and written

As a bonus you may even have

  • flex time (of course) and the possibility for working from home
