Our team is a blend of highly experienced designers and recent graduates, as we believe that great ideas can come from anyone, anywhere, at any time. We foster an open environment where each team member takes the time to help colleagues and share knowledge—something you'll notice when you join us!

These exciting products have won the hearts of our customers and even design competitions like the Red Dot design Award!

What does a Mechanics designer do at the New Business Access Control Solutions department?
As a mechanical designer, you'll play a broad role, participating from the initial product idea to the global launch. Your responsibilities will include detailed mechanical design, feasibility studies, concept development, manufacturability, testing and verification, but also support in volume production and certifications.

Since product development is carried out in cross-functional project teams, you'll collaborate closely with product owners, project managers, electronics engineers, industrial designers, UX specialists, sourcing, software developers, design for manufacturing, design for testing, quality assurance, and technical writers.

You'll encounter various technologies and challenges, such as:

• Die casting
• Injection molding
• Sheet metal
• Electronics packaging
• RF/antennas
• Heat management
• User interaction methods and technologies
• Ease of use and installation
• Vandal, dust & water resistance

Our products adhere to the highest quality and performance standards, because of the harsh environment they are subjected to. Therefore, you'll also design for vandal resistance, water and dust ingress protection, and corrosion prevention.

As many of our products are new to us or the market, you'll have ample opportunity to utilize your creative side. To further foster innovation, we dedicate 10% of our working time to "Free Fridays," where each employee can use this time for learning, developing personal ideas, and general innovation.

Who are you?
You are a passionate product developer with a genuine interest in technology. You have at least 5 years of relevant experience in this field, with a university degree in mechanical engineering or equivalent. You master 3D modeling and mechanical design for both plastics and metal. You are used to developing complete products, from idea to volume production. You are familiar with working in teams where you take a leading role. Having experience in consumer electronics development is a significant asset.

What Axis has to offer
Axis offers a multicultural workplace with an open corporate culture. We allow and encourage our employees to think independently. From day one, you will have the opportunity to contribute with your skills in a company that believes in innovation and the individual. At Axis, you get the opportunity to build your own network for the future. Here we gather talented and creative people who all work towards the same goal – to be number one. Come join the community and contribute with your knowledge!

Your development is something we truly care about. Except from all the opportunities that comes with a big organization, we encourage you to try new areas depending on your interest. E.g our concept “Axchange” where you can try new roles or responsibilities somewhere else in the company.

Axis offers great benefits, e.g. flexible working hours, classic Swedish “fika” Friday afternoon, morning fika every day, corporate bonus, physical training grants, insurances and your very own Axis bicycle.
