Head of Engineering

Join us in building a future industry!
We are looking for a Head of Engineering who will drive the development of a novel production line.
Myceen is one of the few companies in the world developing carbon-negative building materials by combining post-industrial organic byproducts with mushroom mycelium. Our products have gained international recognition, and now demand is outpacing our production capacity. We're looking for the person to change that.

Head of Engineering
You will lead the development of a novel automated production line for mycelium building materials, from prototyping through to industrial scale. You'll work with our in-house team of engineers and material scientists, external engineering partners, and university collaborators.
There’s no off-the-shelf solution for what we're building. The right person has developed industrial technology from the ground up.
What we look for
- 10+ years of industrial technology development experience
- Background in mechanics, mechatronics and/or automation
- Strong CAD and physical prototyping skills
- Comfortable leading a team and getting hands-on when needed
- Strong communication skills
- Education in Industrial Engineering or a related field
Previous experience with mycelium materials is not required. We care more about your track record in building industrial technology from scratch.
What we offer
- Competitive salary + option pool
- Full-time position in Tallinn
- Interdisciplinary work with international projects
- Great colleagues
- A genuine opportunity to push an innovative company to industrial scale and make a dent in the construction industry's carbon footprint
