Johannes Näslund, 25 - Mechanical engineer
What's your background?
I have a bachelor degree in mechanical engineering from Mid Sweden University. The focus was a bit from what I'm working with though – Product development within sports and experience. Lucky for me the law of nature stays the same.
Before I began here at Syntonic in Kista I've worked at our offices in Gavle as well as in Sandviken.
How's an ordinary day for you?
It's always changing. One day I can draw a design concept for some product, next day there are meetings with our costumers and their suppliers, the third day I'm investigating how to re-design a product in order to improve it, and on the fourth day it's 3D-CAD and drawings that needs to be completed.

What skills are important in your professional field?
Flexibility and responsiveness. Often, when we are in a meeting with a costumer, we are the experts, and that's the reason we get the assignments. At that point it's also important to be aware of the line between what the costumer asks for, and what he want's. We can't expect the customer to have all the necessary knowledge in material properties or demands from society. After some feasibility studies and explanation of the consequences of their demands you have to be able to re-route your work.

What advice would you give students interested in working at Syntronic?
Ehh, tricky question. Honestly I've not thought about it that much. But I guess that they just have to get in contact with some of us and tell us who they are and what their interests are. We have always a need of good coworkers!

What's the best thing about working at Syntronic?
A lot, but mostly the variation of assignments and the constant capacity building. As a consultant at Syntronic there are opportunities for both working “in house” as well as within the costumer's organization. This gives us an base of knowledge from all of the colleagues in house at the same time we are introduced to the latest technology while working at our costumers site.

What skills are important in your professional field?
The job means being flexible, that you dare to test the untested routes to reach a solution. Logical thinking, a methodical approach and social skills are also important. We work in close contact with the customer and therefore we need to understand the customer in order to find the right solution.

Maren Leithe, 25 - Newly employed software developer
What's your background?
I have a master in Engineering Cybernetics from the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU), specialized in embedded systems. My degree was concluded with exchange studies at KTH in Stockholm.
Why did you apply for a position at Syntronic?
Since I am interested in working with embedded systems, Syntronic seemed to be the ideal place. The work is largely project based, which means that I would be learning about and working with a whole range of interesting techniques. After visiting the office in Kista, where I was introduced to some previous projects, I was certain that Syntronic was the place to be. In the end it was the one work place which I applied to.
How's an ordinary day for you?
As I am newly employed, I can’t really say that much about what is “ordinary” yet. So far, I have been learning about (and enjoying) developing mobile applications for Android. Otherwise, all I can say is that I plan to learn a whole lot more.
What skills are important in your professional field?
My impression so far is that it is important to be adaptive to the tasks before you. Your greatest skill is your ability to learn new things. Nobody is expecting you to be an expert from day one. The challenge is to learn what you need to know and that, in the end, is self-satisfying.

What's the best thing about working at Syntronic?
Well, the best thing in my experience here is the people I work with. Yes, it sounds a bit cliché, but what is more important than the work environment, that you are happy with the people who surround you every day? I have no complaints on that point!
