Why MICADO

Three reasons why you should apply to join us.

1
Reason 1

Real products

Working from East Tyrol for renowned companies in the aerospace & automotive industries.

At MICADO, nothing is virtual. We work on Salomon ski touring bindings, Bugatti body components, BMW composites, and tools that go into series production. What's designed on Friday, the CNC mills on Monday.

Salomon, BMW, Porsche, Bugatti, SGL as customers
Composite, plastic, metal — no single material
CAD screen to workshop: 80 steps
From prototype to series production, all under one roof
What this means for you
Visible results, no slide decks
2
Reason 2

Engineering Depth

Design, FEM simulation, patent research, control engineering, manufacturing, assembly - all in-house

We are small enough that everyone can get hands-on with everything, and large enough for serious engineering methodology. CAD, FEM, patent research, tool design, and industrialization are part of our daily work — no discipline is outsourced.

Fully equipped CAD/FEM/CAM workstation

Reason 03

Location East Tyrol

Affordable living,
high quality of life,
10 minutes into nature

Oberlienz is located between the Lienz Dolomites and the Hohe Tauern. Commute to work: usually under 15 minutes. Rent prices: a fraction of Munich, Innsbruck, or Vienna. After work: climbing, ski touring, mountain biking — all within walking distance.

9 months of snow within reach
15-minute commute, instead of 90 in Vienna
Drava Cycle Path on your doorstep
International school in Lienz for families
What this means for you
Quality of life instead of city stress
What we offer

Six reasons to get up on Monday mornings.

N°01

Fair Salary

Above collective agreement, transparently communicated, with salary ranges per experience level. Annual review for adjustment. No opaque negotiations, no arbitrary bonuses.

N°02

Solid and engaging professional development

At least five days per year for training, trade fairs, or certifications. Composite Academy, AUCOTEC training, patent law modules — we pay, you grow.

N°03

Flexible Work Models

Full-time or part-time, 4-day week possible, flexitime with no rigid core hours. Home office for design and engineering 1–2 days, once you're onboarded.

N°04

Meaningful work

Family business since 1998, owner-managed, not a private equity plaything. Full order books, three sustainable divisions. If you start here, you can still be here in ten years.

N°05

employee bonuses

Subsidized lunch in our in-house canteen. Free espresso machine, tea, and water. Sounds trivial — but it's not. A good meal with colleagues beats any stand-up meeting.

N°06

Mountains included

Ski touring afternoons with colleagues, mountain bike trails right from the factory gate, shared mountain summer weeks. We don't just talk about "work-life balance" — we live it, because our location simply makes it possible.

Open Positions

Six positions.
Three divisions.

Currently open positions across our three divisions — Tool & Fixture Engineering, Automation Technology, and Product Development. Nothing suitable? We also welcome unsolicited applications — feel free to write to us anyway.

Voice from HR

We hire people, not resumes.

Daniela Schett is the HR Manager at MICADO and your primary point of contact for all career-related questions. We review every application personally, rather than using automated keyword filters.

MICADO offers you a workplace where you can contribute to technically demanding projects with international companies like Airbus or Porsche, all from the heart of East Tyrol.
