You are the crucial interface between our physical experimental setups and digital data acquisition. Your mission: make our reactors “smart” and bridge the gap between hardware and software.

  • Automation & Innovation: You integrate digital stirrers and sensor technology into our measurement systems and take holistic responsibility from concept development, calculation, and design to building tailored solutions for specific technical challenges.

  • System Integration: You connect hardware components to our measurement software and continuously optimize process parameters. You also develop and implement custom modifications to further improve our existing laboratory equipment.

  • Prototype Development: You are responsible for the electrical and mechanical assembly of new experimental reactors and translate technical drawings into functional, practical systems.

  • Maintenance 2.0: You analyze and resolve faults in complex systems (mechanics, electronics, and software). In addition, you maintain our specialized equipment for polymer synthesis, characterization, and processing, ensuring maximum system availability.

  • Education: Successfully completed vocational training in mechatronics, industrial mechatronics, or a comparable qualification (e.g., electrician with a strong mechanical background). An academic background (e.g., B.Eng. in Mechanical Engineering or Electrical Engineering) is welcome, but for us the key factor is your practical ability to implement solutions.

  • Experience: At least two years of professional experience in an industrial environment. Experience in measurement and control technology or in the chemical or plastics industry is a strong plus.

  • Digital Mindset: Strong affinity for digitalization and modern software solutions. You understand how data flows from machines into systems and how this process can be optimized.

  • Working Style: You work independently, think interdisciplinarily, and find pragmatic solutions to complex technical challenges.

  • Team & Language: You enjoy working in the dynamic environment of a growing startup. As our team is international, you communicate confidently in English; good German skills are an advantage for coordination with local partners.

  • Real Impact: Help redesign plastics for a truly circular economy.
  • Startup Mindset: Flat hierarchies, fast decisions and early responsibility as we scale.
  • Team Culture: Join a team of curious minds that challenge each other, collaborate openly and celebrate progress together.
  • Growth & Learning: Steep learning curves, regular feedback and room to grow with the company.
  • Well-being Perks – Hansefit membership and fresh fruit boost your overall health and well-being.
