Your job will be to assemble and mount all electronics:

  • Bring new cool ideas to the existing design and define if we need to purchase any hardware for the assembly

  • Physically assemble and mount the suitcase according to design with alu profiles or alike

  • Cabling (incl. tagging) of all devices in relation to documentation by suppliers

  • Assemble PLC and program a simple PLC program

  • Make robot mounting plate and other aluminimum plates
