Mechanical Engineer - MicroDri

MicroDri is a Swedish deep-tech company based in Linköping, developing next-generation industrial drying systems based on continuous microwave technology. The company’s technology enables materials to be dried faster, with greater control, and at lower energy consumption than conventional methods — addressing a key bottleneck in many energy-intensive industrial processes.

The company originates from Swedish industrial innovation and was founded as a spin-off from Saab AB. Since its inception, MicroDri has built a strong technical platform within microwave technology, mechanical engineering, control systems, and industrial process development. Development has taken place in close collaboration with industrial and academic partners.

With us, you won’t just create CAD designs — you’ll follow the entire journey from idea and design to finished product and real-world functionality. For the right person, there is also an opportunity to gradually take on greater technical responsibility within the company and help lead the development of MicroDri’s solutions.

About the Role As a Mechanical Engineer at MicroDri, you will play a key role representing mechanical design expertise within our technical team. You will work broadly and hands-on with development, mechanical design, prototyping, assembly, and testing.

This role goes beyond traditional mechanical design. You will participate in early concept discussions, develop mechanical solutions, work closely with manufacturing and testing, and contribute to dialogues with external suppliers and partners. Over time, we see the role evolving into a broader responsibility for the mechanical engineering area, where you will coordinate design-related matters, supplier interactions, and technical decisions connected to mechanical development.

We are looking for someone who understands what happens after a drawing leaves the screen — how components are manufactured, assembled, tested, and function in real-world conditions.
