A Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering, with major in Machine Design, Steel Structures, Engineering Mechanics or similar is preferred, but candidates with relevant practical experience are also encouraged to apply.

Experience with Finnsap, NX, Simcenter, Ansys, or similar engineering tools is considered an advantage. Strong communication skills in English are required, while Finnish language skills are considered a plus. As a person, you are analytical, proactive and eager to learn. You enjoy solving technical challenges, taking ownership and developing your expertise over the long term.
