Where we are / What we do

As part of the Straumann Group, a global leader in implant-supported and restorative dental solutions, Etkon GmbH develops and manufactures high-quality dental prosthetics using state-of-the-art CAD/CAM technologies.

Production takes place in Markkleeberg near Leipzig, as well as in Mansfield (US) and Narita (Japan). Our development team is based in Gräfelfing near Munich and works closely with an international network to bring digital dental workflows into real-world application.

Job Summary

This role is built for people who want to work hands‑on with real systems, not just talk about them.

As an Application Engineer, you are part of a close‑knit team within Application Engineering. You will work side by side with colleagues, testing, building, improving, and sometimes challenging existing solutions. This is not a standalone role, progress happens together.

You will work with a wide range of digital and physical devices used in modern dental workflows. Over time, you will become the person who truly understands how things behave in practice, not just in theory.

A big part of your daily work is experimental. You will combine existing modules, test setups, run trials, and continuously improve workflows. Most of this happens on‑site, close to the systems themselves. This is not a classic remote job or pure office role; it is about getting your hands on the technology and making it work better.

Your Responsibilities

• Work with 3D data (STL) and structured data (XML), connecting different dental CAD systems, IOS devices, and service modules
• Feed and validate data across interfaces to make the Straumann portfolio usable in different devices and services
• Build, test, and improve digital dental CAD/CAM workflows
• Set up and run experiments using real systems and components
• Turn ideas into practical, working solutions through iteration
• Work closely with Application Engineering, Software Development, and an international development network (including AI teams)
• Improve tools, workflows, and processes step by step
• Keep things simple and document results in a structured way, aligned with medical device requirements

Your Profile

We are not looking for perfect CVs. We are looking for people who actually enjoy working with technology.

Preferred background:

• Bachelor graduates, Dental Technology
• Academic degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Medical Technology
• Or similar hands‑on and technical background

What really matters:

• You like to try things out instead of just thinking about them
• You are curious and want to understand how things really work
• You enjoy improving systems, even in small steps
• You have an interest in digital tools, software, and devices
• You are comfortable learning across different fields

What matters is your mindset, your curiosity, and your willingness to work hands‑on with real systems.

Working Style

• You will work in a team that builds, tests, and improves real applications every day.
• There is a strong focus on experimentation, collaboration, and learning by doing. You will not be managing from a distance; you will be part of the process.
• If you enjoy understanding systems in depth, working with your hands and your head, and seeing real results of your work, you will fit right in.

All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, or disability.
