Design Engineer (f/m/x)

Nuventura is a renowned climate technology company on a mission to revolutionize the energy sector. Our objective is clear: to render SF6, the world's most potent greenhouse gas, obsolete. We have achieved this ambitious goal through innovation, developing cutting-edge electrical switchgear that replaces SF6 with clean, breathable air.

Our business model involves licensing our products to global manufacturers, supplying core components to them, and manufacturing complete products for our domestic markets. We have recently established a new base in East Berlin, combining our office and R&D space as we expand our revolutionary technology globally. As we scale up production to meet growing demand for our already developed products, we are on the lookout for a warehouse operator. If you are a motivated and organized person seeking an exciting role in our warehouse, this opportunity is tailor-made for you.
