Career at Tooltec
The journey from India to Tooltec
In the processing industry, production technicians generally come from a background as machine operators. Sourabh Bhoje, however, started his career in India, where he became a Production engineer, before travelling to Sweden for his master’s degree at University West. It is a slightly different journey which has proved to be highly successful after a year at the company.
In the summer of 2016, Sourabh came to Sweden from India to take a master’s degree at University West in Trollhättan. He could have chosen to study in Germany instead, but decided on Sweden based on the university’s excellent reputation in the research field, and because of the language. You can easily get by with English in Sweden and Sourabh also thinks that the grammar and sentence structure of the Swedish language has resemblance to his mother tongue.
Sourabh loves living in Trollhättan and to work at Tooltec. He originally grew up in an industrial town with a similar same size as Trollhättan and enjoys the pace of life here. He can also see advantages in working for a medium scale company, where the scope of assignments is broad, and relations between colleagues are close. “You get things done more efficiently in a good working climate,” says Sourabh, who works closely with both customers and operators: From offer quotes to programming and preparation for production.

Career at Tooltec
From machine operator to production technician
“Tooltec dared to give me the opportunity – and I seized it.” That is how Daniel Andersson describes his path from machine operator to production technician.
At our premises on Kardanvägen, we are all working towards the same goal, in an environment distinguished by a relaxed atmosphere and strong team spirit. Production has been running at a high level in recent years for the growing company that is still relatively small, but whose products have followed customers all over the world, and even out into space.
Daniel Andersson began working at Tooltec in 2003 and, in the same way as many others, started out as a machine operator in the stock production department. Tooltec, which takes the long-term view and places great emphasis on experience, subsequently offered Daniel the chance to take an in-house course to qualify for the position of production technician.
The work of a production technician spans a broad area and involves multiple roles. It makes high demands on attentiveness, versatility and rapid changes, as well as on the capacity to meet new challenges and to develop on an ongoing basis. Not only does Daniel work with programming, writing instructions and designing, but he also has daily contact with customers, handles enquiries and submits offers. Working closely with the operators, Daniel is also tasked with assessing and improving processes continuously, so that each and every component made meets the highest possible quality.
Daniel is no longer working at Tooltec.
