Lead Mechanical Engineer for Sustainable Energy Systems - Military Veterans

A Snapshot of Your Day

The Business Segment Sustainable Energy Systems (SES) develops, manufactures, and sells innovative Hydrogen and Power-to-X systems, solutions and services based on the ELYZER portfolio. With this innovative electrochemical system, water is split into its components hydrogen and oxygen using the PEM (Proton Exchange Membrane) and (green) electricity. By helping our customers in the industrial, energy and mobility sectors to decarbonize their processes we are taking a further step towards a sustainable future.

You can set the tone for this new business and contribute your enthusiasm and experience in a small, pragmatic team with global responsibility for hydrogen projects. We offer you a start-up environment which is characterized by ownership culture, short decision-making processes, and flat hierarchies.

The Lead Mechanical Engineer coordinates all mechanical engineering activities in the project and ensures the timely delivery of detailed layouts of electrolysis plants, steel structure designs, and piping routes. The preparation of specification documents for the manufacturing process and the supervision of the manufacturing activities are also part of the job. In addition, the Lead Mechanical Engineer reviews structural-mechanical simulations and stress analyses.
