About the company

Stegra is on a mission to change the global steel industry by producing green hydrogen, iron, and steel - with the goal of eliminating CO₂ emissions. Instead of coal, they use green hydrogen and fossil-free electricity, meaning their primary emissions will be water and heat.

By 2030, Stegra's ambition is to produce 5 million tonnes of green steel annually in their fully integrated, digitized, and sustainable plant in Boden, Northern Sweden - currently under construction. But this is just the beginning. Their expertise in green hydrogen will enable them to decarbonize industries beyond steel, paving the way for a cleaner future.  

Stegra is looking for talented, innovative, and purpose-driven people to join their rapidly growing and diverse team. Their employees get to learn everyday, implement the latest technology and test and put their ideas into practice. Together, they are building an impact company with sustainability at its core – for their people, customers, investors, society, and planet.
