Your role

Within the New Business Technologies department, we are looking for a ‘Mechanical Design Engineer’ for the Hydrogen and Steam Task Force.

This team is responsible for developing and maintaining new compression technologies for Hydrogen and Steam applications. Developments can start from a blank paper to upgrade current products as well as search for innovations together with the R&D-cell and external parties.

In this exciting role, you:
