Specifically you will…

• Develop 3D models and photorealistic renderings for DAC production plants & components

• Translate technical inputs and engineering constraints into visual representations

• Help shape a cohesive, recognizable design aesthetic for Greenlyte’s technology

• Collaborate closely with our founders, project management and engineers to ensure renderings are technically feasible

• Prototype future modular plant concepts and visualize system integration

• Develop visual assets for investor decks, pitches, marketing, and public communication

• Work in SolidWorks and possibly adapt to other rendering environments as needed (this is a plus)

• Aid in storytelling and educational content by visualizing processes and technologies

Your first 12 months in the role: expectations and deliverables

Months 0-3

• Get up to speed with Greenlyte’s technology, goals, and visual direction

• Review and adapt existing renderings and plant models, if available

• Start creating early versions of the First-of-a-Kind plant design in SolidWorks/ other tools

• Collaborate with engineering to understand constraints and draft visual representations

• Contribute to concept development for DAC and eMethanol plant integration

• Finalize 3–5 high-quality renderings that communicate the vision of a First-of-a-Kind plant

• Present visual concepts for feedback and iterate on technical inputs

• Begin defining a consistent design language and visual guideline document

• Deliver assets used in public communications and pitch materials

• Build a visual template and handbook

• Explore modular design concepts for future plant scalability

• Create alternative design variants for different geographies or industrial use cases

• Co-develop UI wireframes for control systems if relevant

• You are currently pursuing a Bachelor's or Master’s degree in Industrial Design, Mechanical Engineering, Product Design, Sustainable Design, or a related field

• You have strong skills in 3D modeling, preferably in SolidWorks, and are familiar with photorealistic rendering software (KeyShot, Blender, or similar)

• You bring a high level of design intuition with a passion for technology, climate innovation, and storytelling

• You have ideally worked on complex system designs (plants, machines, or infrastructure) in a university project or internship

• You have excellent communication skills (English required, German a plus) and are comfortable working cross-functionally

• You are self-motivated, curious, and excited to contribute to a growing startup with big impact potential

• 20 days vacation plus public holidays to ensure you also have the down time needed to rest and recharge.

• The possibility to grow and shape your role.

• Working with founders who understand - and invest time in - the importance of building a healthy and sustainable organization.

• Open and transparent communication on company development.

This role cannot be done fully remotely. Sometimes, it is necessary to be present at the head office in Essen.
