Location: Valencia, Spain
Department: HAPS
Reports to: Plant Manager
Employment type: Permanent
Workplace model: On-site
Employment is subject to applicable security screening (incl. SUPO, where required)
Why this role matters:
As the CNC and Workshop Assistant on the HAPS team, you'll help keep our manufacturing and lab operations running smoothly. You will set up and support our CNC machines and workshop equipment, keep our growing fleet of machines and 3D printers in good working order, and make sure incoming materials and components move quickly and reliably from the loading dock to the right shelf. As our lab and workshop continue to grow in size and complexity, this role is central to keeping everything organised, available, and ready to use - so that engineers and technicians across teams can focus on building rather than searching, fixing, or waiting.
