#4 Engineering with
a
positive impact
Our technology helps produce cleaner energy, safer food, and a more sustainable world. The impact of what you build here goes further than you might think.
We're extremely passionate about the details. For some, it's a sound. For others, a surface, a space, a weld. Not everyone gets it.
For Hemlata Joglekar, Sales Manager, it’s the grace of counter-rotating lobes that never touch. The missing roar. The smooth rotation that tells you everything is right.
Not everyone gets it.
It's personal.
For Jimmy Handroos, Team Manager, it’s how everything fits together. Spindle alignment, ball geometry, the tolerance. At 10,000 RPM, every micron matters.
Not everyone gets it.
It's personal.
For Ramdas Nair, Quality Engineer, it’s the orchestration. Every part playing its role without flaw.
Not everyone gets it.
It's personal.
To most people, it’s just noise. To Rasmus Brunstedt, it’s pure engineering.
Not everyone gets it.
It's personal.
To the untrained eye, it looks smooth as silk. But Josefine Hogberg, Supplier Developer, knows that the texture of a steel surface can make or break everything.
Not everyone gets it.
It's personal.
Give it a try. You’ll never know where engineering can take you unless you do.
That was the encouragement I received from Dr. Chin, my final-year lecturer. At the time, I wasn’t sure I belonged in engineering. It wasn’t my first choice. I’d stumbled into it, and many of my classmates were planning to move into other fields after graduation. From our seats at university, engineering felt narrow.
But then Dr. Chin walked in. She wasn’t just teaching equations; she also shared her story: completing her degree, working in the industry, returning for a PhD. Hearing how her career had taken so many turns planted a seed in me: if she could shape such a varied path, maybe I could too.
Her words convinced me to give engineering a real chance – to stay with the craft, keep learning, and let curiosity guide me. And she was right. Just a few years into my career, it’s already taken me from Malaysia to Denmark, working on international projects I once only dreamed of. Dr. Chin showed me that engineering is a gateway to a journey that keeps unfolding.

My manager didn't just delegate the problem. He rolled up his sleeves and joined me on the factory floor.
When I started at Alfa Laval in 2007 as a production engineer, we were going through a difficult time. Our decanters kept failing vibration tests. Everyone was frustrated, products couldn't ship, overtime piled up, customers grew impatient, and my team's morale tanked.
My director of operations, who hired me that first year, didn't just delegate the problem. He rolled up his sleeves and joined me on the factory floor. His advice was simple but transformative: "Spend time focusing on solving problems by understanding the details. That's how you make real progress."
We discovered the issue wasn't the grand design, it was tolerance measurements in assembled components being off by micrometers. Someone had skipped precision checks with the right equipment. Small detail, massive consequence.
That hands-on approach created a paradigm shift. My team started treating precision measurements like they mattered, because they do! Our success rates climbed. Stress dropped. Weekend overtime disappeared.
Now as factory manager for brazed plate heat exchangers, I live by that lesson: when you have a leader willing to get into the details alongside you, it doesn't just solve today's problem. It builds a high-performing culture.

He spoke about engines the way others speak about heroes.
That’s how I think of my uncle, an old-school marine engineer who has spent most of his life at sea. At family gatherings, he still shares stories about the places he’s seen and the engines that got him there. Big, steady machines he can name by model, year and maker. As a kid, I remember sitting there thinking “I want to see that for myself”.
That’s what pulled me in. The machines. Today, I work with burners and boilers. And I get it – the quiet pride, the satisfaction of understanding how things work, and of being part of something that helps keep the world moving towards a carbon neutral future.

Join us behind the scenes at Alfa Laval and experience our passion for people - and machines.
To Revos Innovation Centre Manager Justyna Szczepańska, membranes are little alchemists – turning beer into gold. Well, concentrated beer. But golden all the same: pure osmosis magic.
Sales Engineer Miguel Hernandez knows our heat exchangers inside out. Literally. Meet the guru behind the magic.
Material Specialist Emina Kujundzic has really bonded with the heat exchanger over her years at Alfa Laval. Nowadays she sees it somewhat as a reformed bad boy.
