Service Technician

Candela’s ultimate purpose is to speed up the transition to fossil fuel-free lakes and oceans. We strive to re-think efficiency in marine transportation to radically push the performance boundaries of electric boats and ships.

By combining sensors, computers and advanced submerged hydrofoils, our electric craft flies above the water, reaching speeds and range previously attained only by fossil fuel powerboats.

After launching Candela C-7, Europe’s currently best-selling electric boat, we launched Candela C-8 in August 2021, the first electric boat intended for high volume production. We are also venturing into public transport with the revolutionary foiling P-12 ferry, built for the city of Stockholm. Our products are digital native, fully integrated and connected systems that gives unique possibilities when it comes to remote monitoring and support of the product.

We are now looking for further talent to join our journey to deliver superior customer experience. You will be part of our Global Aftermarket organisation which is instrumental to support Candela’s growth ambitions.

• Maintenance, diagnose and repair boats in our dedicated service workshop located in Lidingö, Stockholm.

• Participate in development of special service tools and service instructions for coming boat generations.
• Participate in development of methods and process in connection to our service workshop.
• Commissioning and customer hand-over of new boats.
• Conduct sea trials.

• Understanding of electrical systems and control electronics.

• To be able to work independently.
