Scope of Work
Responsibilities include, but are not limited to:

• Integrating components from partner facilities into the master CAD model
• Participating in system assembly, machine installation, and related operations (including on-site work in assembly halls/laboratories)
• Creating, maintaining, and updating 2D drawings in CATIA and managing them within CAD systems
• Converting between 2D and 3D designs based on requirements
• Producing and updating conceptual, detailed, and manufacturing drawings/models in CATIA V6
• Preparing, reviewing, and maintaining technical documentation
• Coordinating installation activities on site and producing installation drawings
• Monitoring manufacturing processes and conducting quality and acceptance checks
• Reviewing engineering drawings and packages in line with mechanical standards (e.g. ISO, GPS tolerancing)
• Documenting and presenting engineering work

Additional Information

• The role is primarily on-site in Lund, with limited hybrid flexibility
• The consultant is expected to provide their own phone and computer
• Strong self-management and prioritisation skills are essential
