My job at Shiptec has many facets. On the one hand, I work with very complex machines that do not stand in grey factory halls but glide over beautiful lakes. On the other hand, with the people who operate, repair and maintain these machines with great passion. That we also make an impact on sustainable mobility with our innovations is all the more satisfying. So I also like to be out and about with our products after work.
