The Impact You'll Make

You'll turn engineering concepts into working refrigeration condensing units, building and testing the prototypes that prove our next generation of products before they reach the market. Reliable, safe, well-tested units are what protect Danfoss's reputation for quality — and your hands-on validation work is where that quality is earned.

As demand for energy-efficient cooling accelerates across the region, this role puts you at the heart of product development, with a clear path to grow into deeper testing, engineering, or product ownership responsibilities.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Assemble and wire condensing unit prototypes from engineering drawings, delivering build-ready units for testing.
• Install and connect refrigeration systems — evaporators, piping, brazing, evacuation, and charging — so each unit runs to spec.
• Execute performance, reliability, and functional tests, generating the data engineers rely on for product validation.
• Record and report test results accurately, giving the team a clear, trusted evidence base for decisions.
• Maintain lab equipment and enforce safety and 5S standards, keeping the test facility efficient and audit-ready.

What We're Looking For

• Diploma or Bachelor's degree in Mechanical, Electrical, or Mechatronics Engineering.
• 0–5 years of experience in HVAC/R, refrigeration, testing, or manufacturing.
• Hands-on ability with electrical wiring, brazing, and refrigeration system assembly.
• A safety-first mindset and disciplined approach to accurate test documentation.

What You'll Get from Us

• We promote from within and support your learning with mentoring, training, and access to global opportunities.
• You’ll have flexibility, autonomy, and support to do your best work while maintaining a healthy work-life balance. Your well-being matters to us.
• We strive to create an inclusive work environment where people of all backgrounds are respected, and valued for who they are.
• You’ll receive benefits like 13th salary, annual bonus, paid vacation, pension plans, personal insurance, and more. These vary by country and contract, but they’re worth asking about—we think they’re pretty great.
