Where physics meets aerospace innovation
Are you passionate about physics, materials science and thin-film technologies? Would you like to work with a unique, large-scale PVD coating system featuring a 6-axis robot , while combining applied research with real-world industrial production ?
At Plexiweiss , part of the international Glas Trösch Group , we develop and manufacture transparent plastic components for the aerospace industry.
We are looking for a PVD Process Engineer to join our specialised team in Uherské Hradiště, Czech Republic . You will develop advanced coating solutions, optimise vacuum coating processes and collaborate directly with our R&D colleagues in Switzerland .

Your responsibilities

Operate and control PVD coating processes in a cleanroom environment.
Monitor and optimise vacuum deposition parameters using dedicated control software.
Develop and test new thin-film coatings , including calculations, measurements and evaluation of results.
Perform material analysis, quality control and process reporting .
Work with a large-scale coating system equipped with a 6-axis ABB robot .
Collaborate with the Swiss R&D and project management teams .
Occasionally travel to Switzerland, approximately 1–2 times per year .

The position combines production processes and R&D activities . Coating operations are not performed every day, so you will also have dedicated time for development, testing and process improvement.

✔ What we expect

A degree in physics, materials science or a related engineering field , ideally with a strong background in physics.
Knowledge of metallic materials and their properties.
A solid understanding of thin-film deposition, coating processes and relevant physical principles .
Strong analytical skills and the ability to work independently on technical challenges.
English communication skills for cooperation with international colleagues.
An interest in research, innovation and practical problem-solving.

Experience with PVD processes, thin-film characterisation or industrial coating technologies is a strong advantage.

You do not need to know our specific equipment in advance. We will train you to operate our vacuum coating system , but we expect you to bring the relevant technical and scientific foundation.

What we offer

Monday–Friday, day shifts only , with flexible starting times.
A unique, large-scale PVD coating system with a 6-axis robot .
The opportunity to combine applied research with industrial production .
Direct cooperation with R&D specialists in Switzerland .
A small, agile team with room for independent technical decisions.
A flexible and supportive working environment.
The stability of an internationally established group.

You will join a four-person technical team consisting of a PVD Process Engineer, a chemical process engineer, an operations technician and a cleanroom operator.

Recruitment process

Interested in joining us?
