Working at LEXINGTON®

Eight people, one building near Düsseldorf, and printed circuit boards as the entire subject. If you like being the person who actually decides something rather than the person who escalates it, this is the size of company where that happens.

What the work is actually like

[ The job ]

Rather than adjectives, here is what is structurally true about working in a team this size in this industry.

01

You own the whole thing

An enquiry does not get handed between four departments. Whoever picks it up sees it through data review, plant selection, sampling and series — which means you learn the entire chain rather than one link of it.

02

Technical depth, not breadth

We do printed circuit boards and nothing else. Two years here and you will know more about stack-ups, plating and laminate behaviour than most people who have spent a decade in general electronics distribution.

03

Decisions happen in the room

Eight people means the person who can approve something is usually within earshot. There is no process for escalating a technical call to a committee, because there is no committee.

04

International, concretely

Daily contact with plants and colleagues in Asia and customers across Europe. English is a working language rather than a line on the job description.

05

Small company, real customers

The boards go into vehicles, medical devices and industrial plant. Getting it wrong is visible, which is uncomfortable and also the reason the work is interesting.

06

Stable, not static

A German GmbH since 2012, over twenty years in the industry, with a market that is currently changing faster than it has in a decade.

Who tends to fit

[ Profile ]
You are comfortable saying "I do not know yet, I will find out" and then actually finding out.
You would rather ask the awkward question before tooling than explain the failure afterwards.
Technical German and working English — most data is English, most customers are German.
A background in electronics, manufacturing or materials helps; the PCB specifics we will teach.
You can hold several projects at different stages without dropping one.

We would rather hire someone with the right instincts and teach the PCB knowledge than the other way round.

How the process runs

[ Application ]
  1. 01

    You send something

    CV and a couple of sentences on why. A full cover letter is not required and will not be scored.

  2. 02

    We reply

    Within a week, including if the answer is no. Silence is not a decision.

  3. 03

    A conversation

    With the people you would work with, not with a screening layer. Bring questions.

  4. 04

    A day with us

    You see the actual work before either of us commits to anything.
