Mechatronics Technician (m/f/x)

You’ll begin with a solid technical foundation — both theoretical and practical — in our in-house training workshop. Here you’ll learn the basics of metalworking: filing, sawing, drilling, and milling. In doing so, you’ll work with different materials and measuring tools and learn how to handle equipment safely. Reading technical drawings, safety fundamentals, and core mechanical principles will round out your introduction to the profession.

In your second year, you’ll move deeper into hands-on practice. You’ll expand your manufacturing skills and explore more advanced electrical engineering topics. You’ll also learn how hydraulic and pneumatic systems work — an essential part of working with machines and automated equipment later on. In parallel, you’ll be integrated into various production areas, where you’ll manufacture components independently based on drawings and support the maintenance team.

During your third year, you’ll take on increasingly complex assignments. You’ll work on full assemblies and complete machines, perform mechanical and electrical adjustments, and support commissioning activities both in the plant and occasionally at customer sites. You’ll also learn how to identify faults and troubleshoot them independently. Robotics becomes another key focus: through a dedicated introductory course, you’ll explore the basics of modern automation.

In your final six to twelve months, you’ll deepen your expertise and may specialize in a specific area based on your interests. You’ll work more autonomously, take on responsibility during commissioning processes, and actively support day-to-day operations. At the same time, you’ll prepare intensively for your final exam, which includes both theoretical and practical components.
