The grinding shop is where it is decided how an instrument feels in the hand. The surface created here is something a surgeon never sees — she feels it. This is work you learn in weeks and master in years.
A surgical instrument does not become good simply by having the right dimensions. It becomes good when the surface is right: even, free of burrs, comfortable in the hand, straightforward in the cleaning process. That is exactly what is created in our grinding shop — with machines, but above all with experience and a good eye.
You work in a small, well-established team on instruments for spinal surgery, proctology and general surgery. No production line, no cycle time measured in seconds: what counts here is that a part comes out right — not that it comes out fast.
If you come from another skilled manual trade and are wondering whether that is enough: as a rule, yes. What counts is a delicate touch and patience — we will teach you the rest. The best thing is to come in for a day and try it out before we talk about a contract.
We do not publish a figure here, because experience and the area you work in make the difference. We will tell you the starting range for this position before your first interview, though — simply ask.
A CV is enough. No covering letter needed. If you would rather call: +49 (0) 7461 96625-14.
