As a design engineer, you will design and develop separate pieces and assemblies for installations and machines on the computer, drawing CAD models and contributing your creative ideas to the design of new products.
Design engineers must approach mechanical design with exceptional precision to guarantee that components fit seamlessly and perform as intended. Choosing the right materials for each element is equally crucial, ensuring durability, strength, and optimal functionality. Effective project planning and management are essential to meet deadlines while maintaining cost efficiency.
Basic apprenticeship training within our company, combined with school courses at the Professional School for Crafts and Industry. Additionally, there is an opportunity to pursue the Integrated Technical Vocational Baccalaureate (SPAI) at the Professional Technical Center (CPT) in Bellinzona.
As an electronics engineer, you will develop, program, and build electronic devices that integrate hardware and software. You will learn to design electronic circuits, manufacture devices and equipment, and develop software. Additionally, you will gain hands-on experience in the repair, maintenance, and optimisation of modern electrical systems.
Our modern and fully automatic production lines must always work. You will help from the start to set up new machines and take care of the maintenance and repair of electrical equipment.
If a machine breaks down or stops working, you are the first person people call. You will check the situation and act quickly to get production running again. You will learn how to read electrical and technical circuit plans and solve problems step by step. Soon, you will also be able to check if electrical systems and functions are working correctly.
Our machines are highly automated and complex, so we need skilled and well-trained people to program robots and controls.

You produce parts from metals and plastics in different shapes and sizes. For this purpose you use modern, often computer-assisted drilling, turning, milling, and grinding machines, as well as many other machine tools. Programming is mostly done on 3D computer programs and you look for design solutions and build prototypes.
Manufacturing mechanical components requires extreme precision. Achieving and maintaining high quality standards is a constant challenge. Ensuring personal safety and that of colleagues is a priority, given the potentially dangerous nature of working with heavy machinery.
