Imagine this: one week you’re working on the frame of a sorting machine that will soon be processing tons of potatoes per hour in the United States. The next week you’re building a three-meter-long stainless steel machine bed for a food producer in Japan. At Key Technology, you don’t work on standard machines. You weld bespoke stainless steel products that need to be accurate down to the millimetre and are used all over the world in food processing. You will be part of a team of skilled professionals who take pride in their work, help each other out and always strive for a clean, precise finish. On top of that, you receive 13.7% holiday allowance. What more could you want? Apply now.

Your daily tasks will include:
- Welding thin-walled stainless steel (from 2 mm) using TIG and MIG/MAG.
- Independently assembling constructions based on technical drawings, which you are able to read yourself.
- Performing alignment and straightening work and controlling the welding arc.
- Working in accordance with inspection procedures and quality standards.
