You will work with your teammates in our Refurbishment Centre in Stuttgart, dealing with e-bikes only and using the highest quality materials and most modern tech there is. Due to the large selection of different e-bikes (speed bikes, mountain bikes, city bikes, cargo bikes; heavily used to almost new), the job remains varied and highly challenging. Key Responsibilities Full Repair Cycle: You manage the entire process, from initial assessment and inspection to precise fault detection, professional spare parts selection, and the execution of the actual repair.

Ideally, you have completed one of the relevant vocational training programs (apprenticeships). However, we also welcome career changers (Quereinsteiger) who bring a solid understanding of (E-)bike repairs! Skills & Attitude: You are highly organized and enjoy thorough, independent work. Growth Mindset: You enjoy experimenting with new repair processes and continuously improving them. Language Skills: You have good proficiency in German and/or English.

You will become an absolute expert in the e-bike market, having seen almost every bicycle in your workshop. Modern Workspace: You work with state-of-the-art tools and equipment—including the latest repair diagnostic devices—in a comfortable environment featuring electric stands. Expert Team: Your team consists of experienced mechanics from whom you can learn a great deal. Focus on Mechanics: You will have no direct customer contact, allowing you to focus entirely on what you enjoy most—wrenching and repairs! Work-Life Balance: You always have your weekends free, as we only work on weekdays. Compensation: You will receive a competitive fixed monthly salary. Career Growth: We evaluate your performance every six months, giving you the opportunity for promotion and professional advancement. Startup Culture: Upway is a young company with a great team and ample room for your personal development.
