• Collaboration with cross-functional and international teams in Germany and the U.S.
• After relocation: Ensuring reliable plant operations and further development of technical standards on-site

• Completed vocational training as a Certified Electrician / Industrial Electrician / Mechatronics Technician or comparable qualification
• Several years of professional experience in the food industry or in the technical support of batch-based process production systems
• Extensive hands-on experience in the maintenance and servicing of industrial equipment
• Good knowledge of EPLAN (e.g., EPLAN Electric P8) for electrical design, documentation, and troubleshooting
• Very good English and good German language skills (written and spoken)
• High level of intercultural openness and adaptability
• Strong problem-solving skills combined with a structured and reliable way of working
• Team-oriented mindset combined with a high degree of personal responsibility
• Willingness to work in an international setup during the first year (approx. 50% Germany / 50% USA) as well as to permanently relocate to Plymouth, Indiana (USA) after 12 months, including the ability to meet U.S. visa requirements

We will support your training on site in Aachen and your transition to the USA in a professional and structured manner. This includes assistance with finding accommodation and guidance throughout the U.S. visa application process.
