Your role and responsibilities
We are looking for an Electrical Safety Specialist to join our Robotics division and play a key role in ensuring that our robotic systems, robot cells, and automated machinery meet electrical safety requirements across European and North American markets.
In this role, you will act as a technical authority and trusted advisor, working closely with R&D, product development, testing, manufacturing, and external certification bodies. You will ensure that electrical risks are identified early, mitigated effectively, and clearly documented—enabling safe, compliant, and market-ready robotics solutions.
This is a collaborative and technically deep role with influence across the full product lifecycle, combining analytical work with occasional hands-on involvement.
Examples of your responsibilities:
Perform and support electrical safety risk assessments for robotic systems and machinery
Define and verify risk-reduction measures in both design and operational practices
Ensure compliance with relevant standards and regulations, including:
IEC / EN 60204-1
UL 1740, NFPA 79
Interpret standards and translate them into practical engineering requirements
Support internal and external audits, inspections, and certification activities
Contribute to compliance with related areas such as ISO 10218, EU Machinery Regulation/Directive, and EMC requirements
Review electrical designs, schematics, and layouts for safety compliance
Support R&D projects early in development to prevent late-stage redesign
Qualifications
Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics, or a related field
Solid experience working with electrical systems in industrial machinery or robotics
Strong knowledge of electrical safety standards (IEC, EN, UL, NFPA)
Ability to read and review electrical schematics and technical documentation
Experience working cross-functionally with engineering and safety stakeholders
Experience supporting certification or conformity assessment processes
Background in R&D or product development environments, as well as experience working in a global or multi-market context and with robot cells, industrial robots, or automated systems
Fluency in English (written and spoken), and preferably knowledge of Swedish or other languages
