In this role you can fully utilize your technical abilities, your creativity and your project management skills. No two days are alike, as there is always something to discover in the Research & Development (R&D) department. You work independently and in growing teams in Berlin and Tanzania on various development projects, always keeping in mind both the technical possibilities and the requirements of our customers. If your way of working is both outcome-oriented and team-oriented, you will feel very comfortable in our dynamic, intercultural and interdisciplinary team.
The Project Manager does not need to be an engineer or software expert, but needs to have a good understanding of what engineers/software programmers do.
