Research & Development

Test Engineer

Do you enjoy hands-on technical work – solving practical problems and taking full ownership of your testing environment? Then this role might be your next move.

Join us at Business Area Rock Processing and take on this unique opportunity to run and shape your own testing function, working independently while being part of a supportive team of experts dedicated to strengthening our process and performance understanding.

About your job

As our Test Engineer, you work independently in the daily operation of test activities, while collaborating closely with the Mineral Process Development Lead and other stakeholders across the organization, such as colleagues in our global sales areas and R&D. You take ownership of the hands-on planning, preparation, execution, and analysis of tests at our test centers in Svedala and Dalby.

You make sure test activities are performed safely, efficiently, and with high technical accuracy – supporting decision making across process development and product development. Your work enables high-quality insights that connect test results to real-world performance, built on sound statistical principles and hypothesis-driven experimental design.

Location and flexibility

The location for this position is Svedala – just outside of Malmö – with presence in Dalby depending on testing schedules.

About you

You combine a strong safety mindset with curiosity, attention to detail, and solid analytical skills. Being a true team player, you truly believe that collaboration leads to the best solutions, at the same time, you’re comfortable working independently in a technical environment.

To succeed in this role, you need:

A university degree in a relevant field – preferably a master’s in engineering, or equivalent experience.
Experience from testing, laboratory work, industrial operations, or similar hands-on technical roles.
Strong ability to understand and apply statistical principles in testing (e.g. data variability, sampling, basic significance/comparisons, uncertainty/measurement system considerations).
Practical experience applying experimental design to plan tests and support hypothesis-driven learning (e.g. parameter studies or confirmation testing).
Ability to analyze data and prepare clear technical documentation.
Strong communication skills in English.
A structured way of working, a proactive mindset, and a safety-first approach in an industrial environment.
Experience in heavy industry is advantageous as well as knowledge in crushing and screening processes.
