Our Engineering Departments

Our engineers are, in large part, why we are able to do what we do as a chemical company. From optimizing construction and processes to keeping the production facilities running, there are countless possibilities for people working in engineering to lead us forward.
Global job search

Our colleagues find the right balance between efficiency and creativity every day. In fact, we regard this skill as one of the most important attributes in engineers who want to work with us. It is a quality that enables you to not just make things happen, but to identify possibilities within challenges.

At Covestro, “engineering” has a hand in a variety of topics from upgrading controls and data acquisition systems to replacing analyzer systems at existing facilities. You can support the strategy team by evaluating new technologies and assessing the economic cost of various alternatives, or you could be setting up a digital twin for the asset lifecycle of our production plants.

For us, engineering is about ensuring the highest levels of safety, sustainability, reliability, and profit.

Every day is different, and the nature of my job is about working together with others. Each project offers its unique challenges and new team set-up. I appreciate the open, supportive, and respectful working atmosphere.

Building Your Career with Purpose, Sustainably.

If we want to change a whole industry and make the world a brighter place, we will have to stick to our goals – becoming fully circular and striving for climate neutrality in the upcoming years.

For this, we need committed engineers – students, graduates, and experts – who can see themselves putting their minds and initiative into projects that push boundaries. As a mechanic, a maintenance manager, an Instrumentation & Electrical project lead, as someone working in a digital or cost engineering team – your role will always be focused on setting new standards for a more sustainable outcome.

We are constantly evolving, and continuing to transform is both our responsibility and our promise to stakeholders. At Covestro, we welcome professionals who are ready to build their careers and grow in their personal development.

Covestro’s environmental, and employee-centric values are very much aligned with my own personal values. To me, it is important to be at a company with a positive and innovative culture.

From a Positive Working Environment to a Brighter Future.

Although you may not always see them, our products and materials play a major part in daily life. The fact that our technologies have a hand in so many major industries is both fascinating and challenging at the same time, especially in light of today’s mega-trends in areas like mobility, sustainable living, or the circular economy.

There are many strategic initiatives in the pipeline for us in order to meet the demand for modern, sustainable materials. To achieve our goals and push boundaries further, it is key to collaborate with a unified mindset that embraces “We Are 1” across the company.

Covestro values working together – in fact, our guiding principles are based on trust and a pioneering spirit. This mindset allows us to be one step ahead in a dynamic, international environment.

Covestro’s products are in every person’s life, even though most people don’t realize this, when they sleep on a mattress made of Covestro foam or drive a car with lights made of polycarbonates.
