Engineer R&D

(full-time employment)

THE COMPANY

Fallprotec is a Luxembourgish company that conceptualizes, develops and sells protective equipment for work at height and access machines to perform building maintenance (BMU). Thanks to the great successes encountered by the initial range of product over last decade, Fallprotec develops more and more complex and technologic products such as autonomous hoist, robots… through self-founded R&D projects. The company is facing multiple challenges due to the international growth and the enlargement of the range of product. Today, almost half of the turnover is performed outside Europe and exports play a major role in our company development and corporate identity. Exports will continuously grow especially in South-East Asia, South America and the Middle East.

For these reasons, Fallprotec offers multiple opportunities for young talented and dynamic persons willing to evolve in a challenging, demanding but rewarding team. Our goal is that you get quickly integrated to become independent and carry out projects from the conceptualization phase to the implementation in a pleasant and family working atmosphere…
