The profile we are looking for
We are looking for an engineer with solid experience in electrical system design and development, combined with a broader understanding of the product and how its different systems interact.
The ideal candidate is not focused solely on producing design documentation, but is interested in understanding why a particular solution is required, how it can be integrated into the product, how it can be tested and how it can be improved.
This role is particularly suitable for an engineer who wants to be involved in new product development, rather than focusing exclusively on routine design of already standardized solutions.
Why Deltamed?
At Deltamed, you will have the opportunity to work on the development of special-purpose vehicles and customized technical solutions, where electrical, electronic, IT and automation systems must work together as part of a complex product.
You will have a direct role in turning concepts and ideas into functional solutions that become real products, including products used in emergency situations and critical operations.
Our working environment encourages initiative, controlled experimentation, knowledge sharing and continuous improvement. You will have the opportunity to contribute not only to current projects, but also to the way Deltamed designs and integrates electrical solutions into future generations of products.
