Whether it is food, plastics or new materials, our measuring instruments help companies around the world develop, test and improve products. At our Duisburg site, we develop and manufacture high-quality measuring and testing instruments as part of the international Anton Paar Group. Our instruments are used in laboratories as well as in research and development worldwide.

Are you interested in technology and would you like to understand how mechanics, electronics and software work together? Do you enjoy practical work and finding technical solutions? Then this apprenticeship could be the perfect fit for you.

Start your apprenticeship as a Mechatronics Technician (m/f/d) at Anton Paar TorqueTec GmbH on 2 August 2027.

During your 3.5-year apprenticeship, you will gradually gain experience in all areas relevant to the profession of a Mechatronics Technician. You will be supported by experienced trainers and colleagues throughout your apprenticeship.
