Test Engineer

Aarke is a Swedish design company redefining everyday kitchen appliances through premium materials, engineering, and timeless

design. Founded in 2013, we are on a mission to re(de)fine the home appliances industry — combining Scandinavian design,

exceptional quality, and top-tier materials in a category often overlooked by the design community.

Our flagship product, the Aarke Carbonator, has earned a devoted global following with customers in more than 30 countries. As we

continue to scale internationally and expand into new product categories, we are looking for sharp, hands-on people to grow with

us.

As Test Engineer at Aarke, you own test specification design and execution across our product categories. You are the person who

can pick up an unfamiliar technical system — a new mechanism, electrical architecture, or material — and turn it into a

comprehensive test campaign. Whether it is functional performance, durability, safety, or edge cases, you define what it means for

a product to pass, and you make sure it gets there.

You also own the investigation of product returns. From intake and triage through root cause and corrective action, you drive the

full process with rigour and clarity. In practice, you are the connective tissue between product development, quality, and

compliance — a role where your findings directly shape the products we bring to market. You report to the Chief Product

Development Officer.

• Translate new technical systems into quantitative test specifications covering functional performance, durability, safety, and

edge cases

• Drive the continuous development of the test specification - either as a full test lead or as a facilitator to a development

engineer

• Lead root cause analysis investigations end to end: reproduce failures, conduct Failure Analysis (FA), isolate root cause, and

document findings in a structured format

You are a methodical, hands-on investigator who moves fast but thinks rigorously. Ambiguity does not slow you down — you can pick

up an unfamiliar product and design a test approach from scratch, then execute it with confidence. You are equally at home

building test rigs in the workshop and writing a structured investigation report. You communicate clearly across technical and

non-technical audiences, and you take ownership from start to finish. You care about getting to the real answer, not just a

plausible one.

At Aarke, you work directly on products that go through the full development journey — you see them from early concept through

launch and into the market, including what comes back and why. Our team is small and hands-on, which means your work has real,

visible impact and you are never far from a decision.

You will be part of a collaborative, cross-functional environment in central Stockholm (Vasastan), with close ties to our

manufacturing partners and suppliers. The role includes regular travel to our production partners, primarily in China — giving you

direct access to the factory floor and the chance to build deep product knowledge through the full supply chain.
