### **What You'll Do**

Design & Improve Structural Systems

• Analyze and optimize lightweight structural systems, components, and structural connections.
• Evaluate the behavior of steel, aluminum, composite materials, and ETFE film systems.
• Support the development of innovative structural concepts for industrial solar thermal applications.
• Transform engineering insights into scalable, manufacturable design improvements.

Lead Material & Component Testing

• Plan, build, execute, and evaluate material and component tests.
• Design and instrument full-scale structural testing.
• Conduct small-specimen material testing to characterize material behavior.
• Analyze test results and translate findings into engineering recommendations.

Develop & Validate Engineering Models

• Develop, calibrate, and improve nonlinear finite element (FEA) models.
• Predict structural behavior using numerical simulations.
• Validate simulation results through physical testing.
• Continuously refine engineering models to improve design accuracy.

Collaborate Across Engineering

• Work closely with Structural, Mechanical, Manufacturing, and Operations teams.
• Support design decisions through data-driven engineering.
• Contribute to solving complex structural challenges across international projects.
• Share technical expertise and help drive continuous innovation.
• *Who You Are**

You're someone who enjoys solving complex engineering challenges and turning analysis into practical solutions.

You combine analytical thinking with a hands-on mindset and enjoy moving between simulations, laboratory testing, and real-world engineering. You're curious, collaborative, and motivated by seeing your work become part of technologies that make a global impact.

Ideally, you'll bring:

• A degree in Structural Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related engineering discipline (ideally with a background in construction, civil engineering, or automotive engineering).
• Several years of experience in structural, material, or component testing.
• Experience working with nonlinear material behavior and structural analysis.
• Strong experience with numerical modelling and nonlinear FEA.
• Hands-on experience planning and executing engineering tests.
• Familiarity with sensors, instrumentation, and measurement systems.
• A structured, analytical, and independent working style.
• Confidence working in an international engineering environment.
• Excellent English communication skills; German is an advantage.
• Experience with foundation systems for solar structures, soil testing, rammed piles, ground screws, or percussion drilling is a plus.
