The mission of The Ocean Cleanup is to develop and scale technologies to rid the oceans of plastic. To do so, we need to design, develop, and deploy offshore cleanup systems that extract plastic from our oceans. You will be responsible for concept development and related research within the R&D Team to build knowledge and deliver high-quality concept designs. We have a small R&D team, supported by our engineering team and 3rd parties. An essential part of this role will be to work closely with our Engineering Team to test and analyze concept ideas.
Quickly building an extensive knowledge base, you will succeed when you deliver innovative concept designs that push the boundaries of our technology.
"The Ocean Cleanup is a technology-driven project, aiming to clean the world's oceans from plastics by developing innovative technology. We are looking for a person who can build knowledge to improve our technology in a quick and clever way.
