As an Electrical Design Engineer in our R&D team, you will design, dimension, and document the industrial electrical systems that power our machines.
You will work hands-on with:
Electrical cabinets and three-phase power distribution
Control and signal cabling
Electrical schematics and system documentation
Integration with PCB electronics and control systems
Transition from prototype builds to production systems
You will collaborate closely with electronics, mechanical, and control engineers in a highly cross-functional R&D environment.
This is a role with real ownership — you will help define how we design and document industrial electrical systems as we scale.
Must have:
Experience designing industrial electrical systems
Strong skills in electrical schematics and documentation
Experience dimensioning electrical cabinets
Solid understanding of three-phase power systems
Experience with control and signal cabling
Fluency in Swedish and English
Nice to have:
Experience working with PCB development teams
Knowledge of automation or embedded systems
Experience with industrial electrical standards
Background in robotics, aerospace, automotive, or heavy machinery
Why Join AirForestry?
Work at the intersection of industrial power systems and advanced robotics
Join a scaling startup where your engineering decisions shape the product
Move from early concept to production-ready systems
High ownership, fast feedback, and real technical impact

Reinvent forestry with our great team
We have a world class organization in scale up, technology and flight, to build a new way to manage forests to help solve the climate and biodiversity crises. And we’re having a lot of fun doing it!
As a hands-on, experimental, and outdoorsy bunch, we focus on getting things done. We're quality-oriented, problem-solving, fact-based, kind, open and ask lots of questions. Sounds like a group you’d have a good time with?
There’s currently about 33 of us and we are always on the lookout for the best and brightest!
About AirForestry
We build cutting edge forestry technology that helps solve the climate and biodiversity crises. Our mission is to contribute to a substantial positive change by creating better forests for everyone.
Forestry is a long-term project. What is harvested today was tended by previous generations, and what is planted today will be harvested by our grandchildren.
AirForestry provides solutions for thinning forests with the help of
electric drones that can harvest trees from the air. AirForestry reduces
the need for access roads, eliminates the consumption of diesel, and
provides a better working environment for those who work in the forest.
We have paying customers and great partnerships. See our main website for more information.
