About Futraheat
We are an early-stage, cleantech company formed to commercialise our novel, patented compressor technology. Our vision is to make a meaningful dent in global CO2 emissions by pioneering the electrification of industry with disruptive heat pump products.
Our core technology is a turbo-compressor simplified. It operates at greatly reduced speeds without oil, yielding lower manufacturing, operating and maintenance costs. We have developed a full-scale industrial heat pump pre-production product that was pilot tested at an industrial site throughout 2025. Recently Series A investment has been secured to scale the business and deliver further high temperature heat pump products to industrial end users.
About the Position
We are looking for a full-time Electro-mechanical Engineer with a mix of electrical, mechanical and systems engineering experience to join our growing team. This is an excellent opportunity for a candidate who enjoys a varied role covering electrical and mechanical design, control integration and hands-on assembly work in product development with some field testing. Knowledge of motors and compressors is desirable, but above all a willingness to learn and contribute to a collaborative and innovative environment is key.
