Team Lead* Engineering Automation in Muenchen, Deutschland

Work mode: Hybrid, with 1–2 days working from home

Reports to: Lead Mechatronics Engineer

Type: Permanent, full-time

Relocation support: full package if you’re outside of Finland.

At Hyperion Robotics, we are building advanced 3D concrete printing systems to make construction more sustainable, scalable, and intelligent. Our Tech R&D team plays a critical role in turning that vision into reliable real-world systems — designing, building, commissioning, and supporting the automation behind our 3D printer systems in Finland, the UK, and future deployments across Europe.

We are now looking for a (Lead) Automation Engineer to join us in Espoo, Finland. This is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys designing and building electrical and automation systems from the ground up together with the team — from architecture, component selection, and electrical topology to PLC software, documentation, testing, and commissioning. This role is also ideal for someone who is already strong in automation engineering and has the potential to grow into a future Team Lead role as the team expands. You will not join as a people manager on day one, but you should be excited by the idea of gradually taking on more ownership, coaching others, and eventually leading a small team of 2-3 members after 8-10 months.

Creating scalable and robust hardware and software architecture for industrial systems built from the ground up

Supporting HMI development, safety-related automation functions, and reliable communication between automation devices

Supporting wiring, testing, commissioning, upgrades, and troubleshooting together with the wider engineering team

Leading or supporting root cause analysis for automation-related issues and implementing practical corrective actions

You have a degree in Automation Engineering, Control Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field

You have hands-on experience designing electrical schematics, electrical topology, and practical control system layouts

You have experience designing control systems using Beckhoff hardware and TwinCAT, with understanding that goes beyond low-level PLC programming and includes higher-level hardware and software architecture.

You are comfortable with hands-on engineering work when needed, including testing, commissioning, troubleshooting, and occasional wiring support as part of the team

You have experience owning the technical scope of a system, subsystem, or project — for example as a lead engineer or technical owner — and can work independently after onboarding while creating structure and ensuring maintainability, safety, and long-term reliability.

Competitive compensation package, including benefits and stock options

Additional paid holiday weeks during your first year of employment

EUR 300 per year for dental care

A hands-on role at the core of Hyperion’s 3D printing technology

A hybrid role based in Espoo, with full relocation support for candidates joining from outside Finland

The chance to work on systems deployed in Finland, the UK, and future projects across Europe

A growing engineering environment where your improvements to documentation, testing, and ways of working will have visible impact

A clear path to grow into broader technical ownership and, over time, a future Team Lead role
