Electrical Design Engineer for Heat Pump Development

Electrical Design Engineer for Heat Pump Development Do you want to help create the future of urban heating and cooling? Driven by a deep sense of purpose and sky-high ambitions, we think differently at Qvantum. Entrepreneuring together, we take pride in being disruptable and constantly learn, re-learn and un-learn. Here, the best idea always wins – brilliance eats hierarchy for breakfast. Our vision is to build a more resilient society by electrifying indoor heating and cooling, across Europe and beyond. Join us! Qvantum is a fast-growing Swedish energy-tech company accelerating the transformation of urban heating and cooling through intelligent heat-pump-powered energy systems. As a hardware-enabled software business, our technology powers modular heat pumps that we design and produce at speed and scale, built to integrate with local energy grids and electricity markets. Our heat pumps are flexready®, meaning they automatically can use electricity when it is cheapest and store the heat for later, enabling electrification, optimising the overall energy system, and saving money. All without compromising indoor comfort. The heat pumps are easy to install, monitor and maintain, and come in four categories: air/water, ground source, exhaust air and complete system solutions. Together, they target every home, whether a single-family house, an apartment building or an entire district. Qvantum is headquartered in Åstorp, Sweden, with sales offices and distributors across Europe. The company has two European manufacturing facilities. Backed by long-term blue-chip investors, including Thomas von Koch (ex EQT) and the IMAS Foundation (sister foundation to the INGKA Foundation, owning most of the IKEA stores globally), Qvantum has a vision to create a more resilient society by disrupting how we heat and cool buildings.
