The Role

We are looking for a motivated Automation Engineer to join our team and help us succeed with our next-generation machine.

Key Responsibilities

  • Collaborate with mechanical and electrical engineers to integrate motion systems.

Requirements
  • Degree in Automation Engineering, Mechatronics, or a related field.
  • Strong understanding of kinematics, physics, mathematics, and motion control principles.

  • Proficient in structured programming approaches.

  • Excellent communication skills in English; Danish is an advantage but not required.
  • Passion for technology and innovation.
  • Knowledge of CNC cutting systems or sewing is an advantage but not a requirement.

(Experience with Trio Flex-7 is not required we’ll help you learn!)

What We Offer
  • Full-time position with high flexibility in working hours.
  • Hybrid work model: up to 50% remote.
    A collaborative startup environment where your ideas matter.
