We're building the world's largest hydration platform to replace a $1.5 trillion industry controlled by Coca-Cola and Pepsi β€” companies selling sugar water in plastic. Their model is stuck in the past. We're changing that, from the workplace.

In 2025: #2 fastest growing tech company in the Netherlands (Deloitte Fast50). #30 fastest growing in Europe (Sifted250). 300%+ YoY growth. 16 countries. We're an AI-native company β€” AI is how we build, not an afterthought.

About the Role

~1 min read

We design everything in-house β€” mechanical, industrial design, electronics, embedded software, IoT β€” but manufacture through contract manufacturers. That means your designs don't stay in CAD. They become thousands of physical products dispensing water, handling flavors, surviving daily use in offices and hotels across Europe.

This is a hands-on role with real ownership. You'll work independently on complex design problems, contribute to cross-functional decisions, and ship work that directly moves active product programs forward. Reporting to the VP of Engineering.
