Open 34d

We are looking for a Mechatronics & Automation Engineer (m/f/x) to join us on our mission to build the world's first autonomous factory for carbon fiber manufacturing.

Are you excited about connecting the shop floor - feeding systems, sensors, PLCs, and robots - into one seamless production system? Are you interested in working in a highly collaborative team within a fast-growing deep-tech company? Are you looking to spend your time and motivation on making a difference in the climate emergency?

Then you will love Holy.
  • Be part of a motivated engineering team to develop Holy's revolutionary manufacturing technology.

  • Design, build, and maintain the embedded and industrial automation systems that connect our shop floor - feeding systems, sensors, PLCs, robots and IoT devices.
