The posting

Zymofix is a dynamic and innovative startup dedicated to fostering sustainable and circular agriculture. We specialize in creating effective and economically viable microbial products designed to reduce farmers' reliance on agrochemicals while maintaining high productivity. Positioned at the forefront of sustainable agriculture, we are committed to delivering cutting-edge solutions that empower farmers to grow healthy crops and improve yields without resorting to chemical fertilizers. Zymofix is planning the construction of an industrial-scale demonstration plant in 2027.

Job Description & Key Responsibilities

We are looking for a Pilot Plant Technician with a critical mindset to join our team. You will be responsible for:

  • Operating, maintaining, and analyzing the existing pilot plant installations, covering substrate production, the fermentation section, laboratory analysis, and downstream processing
  • Production of fermentation substrates using a novel thermophysical pretreatment system.
  • Cultivation of microorganisms in several pilot-scale solid-state fermenters.
  • Managing and maintaining the equipment/machine park, carrying out both preventive and reactive maintenance, including troubleshooting technical issues.
  • Assisting with small-scale construction projects (e.g. installing drying ovens, cleanroom ventilation), sometimes coordinating with external contractors.
  • Providing onsite assistance for larger new-build projects as the pilot plant expands.

You might be our perfect match if you meet the requirements below. But don't worry if you don't tick every box, we dare you to apply anyway. You never know if there’s another role at Zymofix that's a better fit for your skills.

  • A technical bachelor's degree, or equivalent through relevant experience; a degree specifically in (electro)mechanics, biochemistry, or a related field is a plus.
  • Strong mechanical aptitude, troubleshooting skills, and basic electrical knowledge; basic knowledge of engines/motors is an additional asset.
  • The ability to read and interpret technical documents, equipment manuals, and process diagrams.
  • Strong problem-solving abilities and a hands-on approach to technical challenges.
  • Willingness and ability to work safely in hazardous environments (chemicals, high-pressure systems, pilot plants), with strict adherence to safety protocols; proven experience in this area, with a track record of promoting a safety-first culture and taking ownership of on-the-spot hazard assessments, is a plus.
  • Experience with lab analysis and working with microorganisms; knowledge of fermentation processes and hygiene practices is a plus.
  • Fluency in English, both verbal and written; fluency in Dutch is a plus.

The role requires strong technical skills, a high degree of independence, and the ability to collaborate effectively with a multidisciplinary team. You draw energy from collective success.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
