Electrical Engineer

Want to shape the future of waterborne transport and join a world-class team? Candela is the global leader in electric hydrofoil vessels. Since 2014, we’ve gone from building our first premium electric speedboat in a small Stockholm workshop to delivering game-changing vessels around the globe. The Candela P-12 is our latest innovation - the world’s first electric hydrofoil ferry is not just operating in Stockholm, but now attracting orders from around the world. Our boats “fly” thanks to computer-guided underwater wings under the hull made of lightweight carbon fiber. The wings lift the vessel above the water, which results in cutting energy use by up to 80%, while offering zero emissions and a far better passenger experience than traditional diesel vessels. And that’s exactly why we do this. Our mission is clear: to speed up the transition to fossil fuel–free lakes and oceans. You can be part of the amazing team in Candela now! We are looking for an Electrical Manufacturing Engineer to support Candela’s future growth ambitions. The Role We are looking for an Electrical Engineer for Candelas Manufacturing Engineering team. You will take ownership of the serial production implementation of a multitude of electrical subsystems such as HMI Controls, High Voltage and Low Voltage Distribution, Low Voltage Cabin System, Navigation systems etc. This is a hands-on role — you’ll design processes, plan and document, but also install and test systems yourself. You’ll ensure that systems are robust, serviceable, and seamlessly integrated within Candela’s electric hydrofoiling vessels. This role involves close cross-functional collaboration with Research & Development, Production and Purchasing to turn R&D designs into reliable, Serial producible processes and designs. Your core responsibilities will include: * Lead the development of electrical and electronic systems build processes and assembly processes to series- and project-build production readiness. * Collaborate closely with Research & Development to ensure product designs are optimized for manufacturability and long-term production stability. * Drive technical evaluations at system level, balancing performance, cost, risk, and production constraints. * Develop and review technical documentation such as schematics, work instructions, MBOMs, wiring diagrams, test specifications, and production documentation. * Participate in technical reviews, verification activities, risk analyses, and root-cause investigations. * Collaborate closely with production to ensure smooth industrialization and continuous improvement of electrical systems and manufacturing processes. * Ensure all electrical installations strictly adhere to specified compliance standards. * Provide technical guidance and mentorship within the electrical production domain Requirements: * Experience leading industrialization of electrical and electronic systems from concept to production. * Strong background in electrical systems and electronics, including system design and integration. * Proven experience working closely with R&D and production of machines or complex industrial products. * Experience producing and reviewing structured technical documentation for industrial products. * Experience in regulated industries with high requirements on safety, reliability, and compliance. * M.Sc. or B.Sc. in Electrical Engineering, Electronics, Marine Engineering or equivalent. * 5+ years of experience in electrical and electronics development and/or industrialization. * Fluent in English It would be preferred if you have: * Experience of working with cad systems, preferably Catia, * Experience working with PCB-based electronics, with the ability to review designs and drive architectural decisions (hands-on layout experience not required). * Genuine interest in building things. * Background in maritime, automotive, aerospace, or industrial equipment What we are looking for: You thrive in a fast-paced, high-growth environment while maintaining a strong focus on quality and attention to detail. You are goal-oriented, analytical, and persistent in achieving results, using a structured approach to solve challenges and drive continuous improvement. As a collaborative and empowering leader, you build trust, foster accountability, and create an environment where individuals and teams can perform at their best. Form of employment: Full-time with initial 6-month probation period Start date: ASAP Location/base: Rotebro, Stockholm Team: Manufacturing Engineering, Operations Reporting to: Manufacturing Engineering Director Why people love working at Candela? At Candela, we’re not just building electric vessels - we’re creating a whole new category of clean, efficient waterborne transport. You get the chance to work with cutting-edge technology, solving complex challenges, and seeing the results in action - sometimes literally, when we organize test rides for our newcomers! We’re a diverse and ambitious team of over 50 nationalities, united by a revolutionary spirit and kindness. That means we work hard, but always with humility and while having fun - whether it’s solving a manufacturing challenge, improving processes, or cheering each other on during Candela Months, our year-round calendar of bonding activities and events. We’re office-first but not office-only. We believe collaboration is most powerful when we build together, in person - but we also trust our team to work in ways that fit their life. At Candela, you’ll find a place where bold ideas are welcomed, great people are celebrated, and the ride is just as important as the destination. Recruitment process: We aim to keep our recruitment process as straightforward and efficient as possible. As an international company with English as our corporate language, the entire process is conducted in English. Therefore, please submit your application in our corporate language as well. Kindly note that we cannot process applications sent via email due to GDPR so please use our career website for you application. We welcome the opportunity to meet you!
