Main responsibilities and tasks:

• Designing and modelling cable, harness and hose routings for new and existing equipment using Autodesk Inventor and Zuken E3.
• Working hands-on in production and in the prototype workshop to understand how routings are installed in practice and feeding those findings back into design.
• Working with large CAD datasets and assemblies – keeping structures, performance and data quality under control.
• Creating and maintaining the related item and BOM data in Sovelia and supporting engineering changes (ECR/ECO) through implementation.
• Supporting new product development projects and production ramp-up, with a focus on manufacturability, serviceability and installation quality.
• Harmonizing routing practices, design rules and standard components across products, teams and sites.
• Identifying improvement opportunities in routing design methods, templates and reusable content, and driving them forward.

To shine in this position, we hope you to have:

• Bachelor’s degree (University of Applied Sciences or University) in mechanical or electrical engineering, or a comparable field.
• Relevant working experience of 2 years in 3D design or product development; experience of routed systems (hoses, cabling, harnesses) is a strong advantage.
• Experience of design and PLM tools, e.g. Autodesk Inventor, Sovelia and Zuken E3 – or the motivation to learn them quickly.
• Basic understanding of Electrics and Hydraulic schemes is necessary.
• Ability and interest to work with large CAD datasets and complex assemblies.
• A practical, hands-on mindset – you are comfortable spending time on the shop floor and learning from the people who assemble our machines.
• Experience of working for a multinational company and matrix organization; international experience is an advantage.
• Fluent written and spoken Finnish & English.
