COO – Scaling Clean Technology from Lab to Industry
Are you a hands-on leader ready to drive the industrialization of breakthrough technology? A pioneering company is developing plasma technology and needs a Chief Operating Officer (COO) to lead the way.
This is not a traditional management role. If you prefer steering from a distance, this isn’t for you. They’re looking for someone who leads by example—someone who builds strategies, coordinates teams, and tackles challenges head-on, whether on paper or on-site at the plant.
Your Mission: From Innovation to Industrialization
1. Scaling & Industrialization – Take technology from R&D to industrial production, managing supplier networks and building pilot plants.
2. Operations & Problem-Solving – Optimize production processes, resolve supply chain issues, and ensure seamless implementation.
3. Leadership & Coordination – Align engineering, production, and external partners, inspiring teams to deliver results.
Your Profile:
* Experience scaling hardware technologies from R&D to production.
* Strong background in chemical or process engineering (M.Sc. or PhD preferred).
* Bonus: Knowledge of electrical engineering or plasma technology.
* Pragmatic problem solver – action-oriented with a focus on execution.
* A natural leader who can motivate, align, and inspire teams.
* Willing to work on-site in Leipzig – industrialization happens on the ground, not remotely.
Why Join?
* Make a real impact – Help fight climate change with cutting-edge CO₂ conversion technology.
* Shape the future – Be at the forefront of industrializing a groundbreaking solution.
* Be hands-on – This is about execution, not just strategy.
* Work with the best – A world-class team of scientists, engineers, and industry experts.
* Leipzig – A thriving tech hub with a dynamic startup ecosystem.
