Mechatronics Engineer

Medior / Senior Mechatronics Engineer — Software & Systems Integration

At Vertico we develop advanced robotic additive manufacturing solutions for concrete printing that push the boundaries of large-scale 3D printing. We combine robotics, motion control, software engineering, and industrial automation to create technologies used by innovators in architecture, infrastructure and construction worldwide.

We are looking for a Medior or Senior Mechatronics Engineer with a focus on both software / systems integration and mechanical know-how — someone who enjoys translating complex machine behavior into elegant, reliable control systems and who thrives at the intersection of automation, software, and creativity.

Your Role
You will play a key role in designing, developing, and integrating the control architecture behind our robotic 3D concrete printing platforms. From motion control and machine logic to remote diagnostics and intelligent system behavior, you will help shape the next generation of industrial automation solutions.

You enjoy solving multidisciplinary challenges and are motivated by building systems that are not only technically robust, but also intuitive, scalable, and forward-thinking.
