About the assignment:
Human Factors Engineer, nivå 3
We are looking for a Human Factors Engineer who focuses on physical & cognitive ergonomics, requirements engineering, testing, and validation, with a solid understanding of product-centric systems engineering.
Human Factors Integration (HFI) is the process of applying human factors within complex engineering programs. A human-centered design requires an integrated approach with other design and engineering activities. It cannot succeed in isolation and requires the active involvement and engagement of systems engineering, design, operations, and safety disciplines within a project team.
Your Role
- Plan, perform, and coordinate the HFI work within a project team across the entire development lifecycle.
- Translate user needs into technical system requirements and specifications, ensuring human factors are met and validated.
- Apply a systemic approach to understand the product as a whole and how human factors interact with different interfaces (hardware, software, and operator environments).
- Ensure that a human-centered design process and methodology is applied, taking into account usability, usefulness, physical and cognitive ergonomics and user work environment
- Plan, execute, and document tests to verify and validate system requirements.
- Act as the primary point of contact for HF issues with internal and external customers, sub-suppliers, and multidisciplinary project teams.
Your Profile
To thrive in this role, you are a self-motivated, structured professional with strong communication skills and a confident mindset that enables you to adapt to changing project circumstances.
Experience with Figma and Jira is highly desirable. Knowledge of Adobe Illustrator is a merit. Knowledge of the INCOSE framework, systemic safety, or formal ergonomics evaluation methods (such as REBA/RULA/NIOSH or evaluations using mannequins and VR) is a strong asset.
Education: B.Sc. or M.Sc. in Product Design, Industrial Design Engineering, Ergonomics, Cognitive Science or a related field.
