Join GEHECO

Are you passionate about technology and the environment? We are seeking enthusiastic individuals eager to gain hands-on experience and make a difference in the world of sustainable technology.

“It is great to work at a startup. We are designing something that doesn’t exist yet. That means researching new ideas, coming up with solutions, testing, discussing with each other, creating prototypes, and starting all over again. I find this phase incredibly challenging and I haven’t been bored a single day since I started working at GEHECO.”
