Berlin, Deutschland DuDeChem GmbH Vollzeit

About Us
DuDeChem is a Green Chemistry startup rooted in the German Cluster of Excellence in Catalysis at the University of Technology Berlin. We are a small but driven team committed to our mission: guided by the 12 Principles of Green Chemistry, we strive to build a green chemical-pharmaceutical industry. This sector currently consumes over 13% of global fossil resources, most of which are used in manufacturing—and we are determined to change that.
To achieve this, we have developed a robust IP portfolio and successfully brought our technology to market, focusing on reducing or reusing costly resources in chemical and pharmaceutical production.
We believe digitalization plays a pivotal role in enabling greener, more sustainable production processes.
By integrating digitalization and sustainability into every project, we have spent recent years proving the effectiveness of our solutions, creating strong competitive advantages within the core value chains of our customers.

This is a unique opportunity to contribute directly to a meaningful mission while gaining exposure to high-level decision-making, business strategy, and innovation in sustainability.
