We are looking for a technical manager in Berlin/Barnim (engineer – m/f/d)
About We4everyone
At We4everyone, we are driving the energy transition forward with the help of innovative wind sail technology. The wind sail enables private households and companies to supply themselves with reliable wind power all year round from their own roofs. We develop and sell the wind sails and thus help our customers on the way to energy self-sufficiency.
As a climate tech startup, we see the challenges of climate change and believe that the potential of the superpower wind is far from being exhausted. Wind is available everywhere and at all times, and therefore wind energy should also be available everywhere and for everyone. We are convinced that with the power of wind, the personal CO2 balance can be reduced and the green energy future is in everyone's hands. In this way, we are taking an important step towards climate neutrality.
Since our founding in 2021, we have already set up our first prototypes and collaborations, started an international patent procedure and have been implementing several pilot projects since 2023. We are particularly proud to have been awarded the special prize of the Brandenburg Innovation Prize 2023.
