at KARLOS 3D

• Job title: Senior Civil Engineer, Building Physicist
• Job type: Full Time
• Experience level: Senior
• Salary: Not specified
• Degree requirement: Bachelor's Degree
• Location requirements: Hybrid, Stuttgart, Germany

About the role

• Product Owner responsible for developing optimized wall constructions with 3D concrete printing technology. Leading projects and collaborating closely with execution teams in a hybrid working environment.

Responsibilities

• You take product responsibility for our wall assembly – from the structural concrete core to the finished exterior façade
• You develop economical, standards-compliant and scalable wall constructions (insulation, layer composition, system integration)
• You optimize wall geometries with respect to material use, building physics, cost, reduction of GWP and construction sequencing
• You evaluate new insulation systems, materials and hybrid construction methods
• You work closely with project execution and support project acquisition and delivery
• You are the sparring partner for our printing teams and ensure that all further developments of the wall system are implemented pragmatically and become visible directly on our construction sites
• You manage several parallel projects with external clients and development partners
• You autonomously drive these projects to completion at a senior level – technically, on schedule and economically
• You systematically transfer practical experience into the further development of our building system
• You do not think of a wall as a detail but as a scalable product

Requirements

• Degree in building physics, civil engineering, architecture or a comparable qualification
• At least 5 years of professional experience, ideally in residential construction
• Can‑do, hands-on mentality: take responsibility, make decisions and deliver results
• Very good understanding of thermal performance, wall and insulation systems and construction site processes
• Strong technical aptitude for evaluating complex building-technical issues
• Ability to consider wall solutions not only technically but as economically viable and scalable products
• Solid understanding of environmental assessment criteria in construction (e.g. GWP, CO₂ balance, life-cycle assessment)
• Strategic and commercial thinking with a clear focus on cost, efficiency and feasibility
• Interest in innovative construction methods and automation
• Excellent German and English skills, written and spoken

Benefits

• Opportunity to contribute your own ideas, take responsibility and actively help shape the company
• A motivated and passionate team
• Room for professional development and growth
• Attractive compensation and additional benefits
• Security through a strong corporate group in the background
• Option for mobile office (remote work)
• The chance to help shape the future and build a company that uses 3D printing technology to revolutionize productivity and sustainability in construction
