Mechatronics Technician
The Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics (IPP) is a globally outstanding centre for fusion research. With around 1100 dedicated employees in Garching near Munich and Greifswald, we are dedicated to researching the foundations for fusion power plants. These power plants generate energy without climate-damaging emissions, are safe, sustainable and almost inexhaustible – similar to the sun. Fusion power plants have the potential to play an important role in the energy supply of future generations. At the Garching site we operate the world-famous and established ASDEX upgrade, a Tokamak fusion facility. In Greifswald we are researching Wendelstein 7-X, the world's largest and most powerful fusion plant of the Stellarator type. The Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics in Garching is looking for an electric workshop in the Tokamak Scenario Development (E1) mechatronics*in Our electrical workshop is responsible for supplying the ASDEX upgrade, its scientific measuring instruments and the building infrastructure with electrical energy in the low and medium voltage range, and for signal transmission between the plant parts. In addition, a variety of mechanical and electrical works are to be carried out for maintenance and construction, reconstruction and assembly at the experimental plant and on technical devices.
