Composite Manufacturing Operator

At Blackwave, we build next-generation composite structures in a fast-moving scale-up environment. Our production team plays a critical role in turning advanced materials into high-performance components.

We are looking for a hands-on Composite Manufacturing Operator who enjoys working with precision, materials, and processes — and who takes pride in building things that matter.

• Manufacture high-quality composite components using advanced fiber-based materials
• Prepare, handle, and process dry fibers and resin systems according to defined procedures
• Operate production equipment and tooling with a strong focus on quality and repeatability
• Monitor manufacturing parameters and ensure consistent process execution
• Inspect components and support quality assurance activities
• Maintain a clean, organized, and safe production environment
• Work closely with engineering and production teams to continuously improve processes

• Experience in composite manufacturing, technical production, or a comparable hands-on role
• Strong attention to detail and quality awareness
• A structured, reliable, and responsible working style
• Willingness to follow defined processes while staying alert to improvements
• Comfort working with materials, tools, and production equipment
• Team mindset with the ability to work independently when required
• Experience with fiber materials, resin systems, or vacuum-based manufacturing processes is a plus — but not a requirement. We value strong fundamentals and the motivation to learn.
• Willingness for shift work (day shifts between 6am and 10pm Monday to Friday)
• English speaking skills at least B2;
  German speaking skills is an advantage

• 30 days of paid vacation – plenty of time to recharge.
• No nights shifts or weekend duty - we care for your work-life balance
• Free lunch & drinks – freshly prepared on site every day.
• Work clothes provided – no need to bring your own gear.
• Secure job with real responsibility – we rely on you.
• Easy to reach & mobility support – e.g. with the Deutschlandticket.
• A strong team – supportive, open and international.
• Regular team events – from BBQs to pizza nights.
