About the company:
Climate change is a global problem and needs to be tackled at scale. Therefore, we set the goal to capture 0.5 GT of CO2 from the air by 2035 - roughly the same weight as all humans on earth combined!
After the first promising results we are currently scaling-up our technology. If you want to join an ambitious team with lots of freedom and growth check out our career page. We are looking for talents in the area of chemical engineering, electrochemistry and mechanical engineering and cannot wait to meet you!
Your mission
Join us in designing, building, and operating the electrical systems that power our First-of-a-Kind (tFOAK) DAC facility — and help define the electrical architecture for the next generation of commercial plants.
You'll own electrical design end-to-end: from schematics and panel layouts through to physical installation and commissioning. You'll be equally comfortable in front of EPLAN as you are with a cable in your hand. In a small team, you won't just design — you'll execute, review, and iterate in tight loops alongside process, automation, and mechanical engineers.
Key points
- Own electrical design end-to-end — schematics, panel layouts, cable routing.
- Hands-on wiring and installation alongside the engineering team.
- Drive electrical acceptance, compliance, and grid operator interfaces.
- Collaborate with automation on control panels, signal lists, and instrumentation.
- Maintain electrical documentation and as-built records.
Your profile
Skills & Experience
- Degree in Electrical Engineering or closely related field (Bachelor's minimum; Master's preferred).
- 5+ years of experience in industrial electrical engineering, with demonstrated ownership of both design and hands-on installation.
- Proficient in EPLAN Electric P8 or equivalent schematic design tooling.
- Strong working knowledge of low- and medium-voltage systems, switchgear, motor control, and field instrumentation.
- Experience with control panel design and wiring in automation-heavy environments (PLC integration, sensor/actuator cabling).
- Familiarity with German electrical standards and regulations (VDE, DIN EN, BetrSichV); experience with grid operator interfaces (e.g. Stromnetz, TAB) a strong plus.
- Comfortable working in an industrial construction or pilot plant environment — safety-conscious and hands-on.
Workstyle and culture
- Thinks in systems and owns outcomes — not just tasks
- Fast learner who quickly grasps complex topics and stays curious about the problem, not just the solution
- Combines scientific rigour with pragmatic, hands-on, build-and-learn instincts
- Authentic, reflective, and self-organised — brings structure without losing speed
- Comfortable with ambiguity and effective at working across cross-functional teams
- Clear and direct communicator with both technical and non-technical stakeholders, with strong active listening skills
Other
- Valid Work Permit for Germany, or able to obtain one
- Location: Industrial co-working space in Marzahn, Berlin, with our own industrial halls
Benefits
- Unique experience contributing to a first-of-a-kind climate-tech project (tFOAK).
- A steep learning curve, exposure to cross-functional challenges, and the ability to shape a project from the ground up.
- Fast-paced, collaborative environment where your decisions have a real impact.
- Competitive compensation and personal growth opportunities.
- Employee stock options
- Learning and development Budget
- Regular team events
- Subsidized BVG ticket
- Laptop and your individual work set up
