Mechanical Prototype Assembler

We are Skytree

Skytree enables a transition to a world with cleaner Air for everyone. We do this by developing and deploying smart technology that captures atmospheric carbon dioxide, enabling its use or storage to combat climate change and aid society and businesses around the world.

Born out of the European Space Agency (ESA), we are a global team of highly talented scientists, engineers and business professionals, supported by an experienced management team. Our working culture is based on a dynamic and smart approach to business with an open and understanding attitude to others and a desire to expand the boundaries of what is possible.

As we enter a new phase of growth, we are looking for a Mechanical Prototype Assembler to continue on this journey with us.

Your role

Over the last few years, the team has been working on several prototypes to get to a current concept with which we’re able to capture carbon dioxide as effectively and efficiently as possible. Having found the optimum when it comes to the concept, we’re currently building several prototypes to iterate on specs like durability, reliability, testing the machine in certain conditions (to name a few) and such.

While the engineering team is working hard to finalise the detailed design, meaning that all sub-systems and parts can be delivered, the system as a whole needs to be assembled. And obviously, that’s where you come in as Mechanical Prototype Assembler. As you’ll assemble a system that’s never been build before you can imagine it won’t be easy. Imaginably, assembling the system comes with iterations and thus with a heavy interface with the engineering team.

You’ll make an impact by

• Intensively collaborating with the engineering team to comprehend requirements and employ engineering principles to develop prototypes and (sub) system assemblies for our DAC equipment.

• Commissioning & testing our prototypes by integrating all mechanical components with high precision, ensuring seamless functionality of our (sub)-systems.

• Contributing to continuous improvement initiatives at Skytree by actively participating in ideation and collaborating with cross-functional teams to establish testing procedures, analyze results, and implement iterative enhancements to prototype functionality.

• Collaborating closely with engineers, and project managers to ensure alignment with project objectives, while effectively communicating prototype design decisions, changes, and test outcomes to team members.
