Description

Materials Testing Specialist

AERONES is seeking a precise and reliable Materials Testing Specialist to make sure every material we use is tested accurately and to standard. In this role, you will run daily mechanical and physical tests, prepare samples, analyse the results and turn them into clear technical reports for our R&D teams. The materials you test, such as composites and coatings, go into robotics built for the renewable energy industry, so reliable test data directly shapes the decisions our engineers make.

What You’ll Do

• Perform physical, mechanical and structural tests, such as tensile, bending, hardness and adhesion tests, following international and internal standards.
• Prepare material samples, including composites and coatings, for testing.
• Set up, calibrate and maintain lab equipment so it is accurate and ready for daily use.
• Record and analyse test results, spotting deviations or unusual material behaviour early.
• Write clear, accurate technical reports that R&D teams can rely on and act on.
• Share timely feedback on test results with the lab team and other R&D departments.
• Help improve testing methods and procedures as you gain experience.
• Follow lab safety rules and keep the workspace clean and organised.

What You’ll Need to Succeed

• A basic understanding of material strength and standard testing methods.
• A high level of accuracy and responsibility, with the discipline to follow procedures step by step.
• Confidence working with data: recording, checking and interpreting results carefully.
• Good written and spoken Latvian and English, so you can read technical documents and write reports for an international team.
• Clear communication and the willingness to raise unexpected results promptly.
• Previous experience in materials testing, lab work or with measuring equipment is an advantage, but we are happy to train an entry-level candidate.

What We Offer

• Competitive pay with a salary of €1,800–€2,000 gross/month.
• Global impact through robotics shaping the future of renewable energy.
• Career growth with real opportunities to learn, develop, and advance.
• Cutting-edge technology with hands-on experience in innovative robotics.
• Enjoy the journey with team events, celebrations, and a vibrant company culture.
• Health insurance after your probation period.
• Extra time to recharge with additional Health Recovery Days.
• Learning support with paid study leave.
• Life-event benefits to support you when it matters most.

Ready to make an impact? If you’re excited about solving real challenges, working with great people, and contributing to technology shaping the future of renewable energy, we’d love to hear from you. Apply and let’s build what’s next together.
