Do you have an interesting vacancy to fill or questions about how we work? Just get in touch with us.
Recruiting qualified vacuum technology specialists starts with a precise technical candidate profile. A Development Engineer working on dry screw vacuum pumps needs different expertise from a Sales Engineer specialising in vacuum grippers or a Service Specialist for industrial vacuum pumping stations.
As a specialised vacuum technology recruitment consultancy, we work with you to define the products, pressure ranges and industrial applications that are genuinely relevant to the vacancy.
For example, we assess whether candidates need experience with mechanical vacuum pumps, high-vacuum technology, vacuum generators, centralised vacuum supply, vacuum automation or process engineering vacuum systems.
Based on these requirements, we identify and directly approach qualified specialists and executives, including those who are not actively looking for a new job.

His ambition to found his own company remained strong, leading him and Daniel Schmökel to take the leap into entrepreneurship together in 2018. At munerio, Daniel Hell-Mayer oversees the pumps and valves sector and, as Managing Director, is responsible for operations, finance, IT, and technology.
Recruitment consultant
Daniel Belhaoues supports companies in filling key technical positions in drive technology, automation, sensors and control systems. He focuses on specialists and executives in engineering, sales, product management, quality, project management, supply chain and procurement. With in-depth industry knowledge and a strong professional network, he is a trusted recruitment partner for medium-sized companies and international technology leaders.
For technical development positions, we recruit Engineering Specialists, Development Engineers, Design Engineers and Systems Engineers, among others.
In vacuum technology, these professionals may develop and optimise vacuum pumps, rotors, housings, sealing systems, pumping stations or complete vacuum systems.
Depending on the vacancy, experience in mechanical design, fluid mechanics and thermodynamics, materials, simulation, testing, vacuum measurement and technical documentation may be required.
High-vacuum systems may also require expertise in specialised materials, surfaces and vacuum components.
Systems Engineers focus on how the individual components of a complete vacuum installation work together.
These may include vacuum pumps, pumping stations, pipework, valves, filters, sensors, control systems and higher-level plant functions.
In our recruitment process, we therefore assess whether candidates have developed individual components or have already designed and integrated complete vacuum systems.
For complex installations in particular, this systems-level experience may be more important than in-depth expertise in just one vacuum pump technology.
Application Engineers combine technical product expertise with the requirements of specific customer applications.
For industrial vacuum pumps, this may include sizing vacuum systems, selecting suitable pump technologies and providing technical advice to customers.
In vacuum automation and handling technology, by contrast, the focus is on vacuum generators, suction cups, gripper systems, workpiece surfaces and cycle times.
For these roles, we consider previous applications and customer industries alongside technical vacuum expertise.
Depending on the technology and application, vacuum pumps and complete vacuum systems require regular servicing, maintenance and technical support.
Service Specialists may be responsible for commissioning, maintenance, fault diagnosis, repairs, pump replacement or optimising existing installations.
When recruiting for these roles, we assess which pump technologies candidates know and how independently they can diagnose faults in complex vacuum systems.
Willingness to travel, customer communication skills and experience in industrial production environments may also be relevant.
In technical sales, we recruit Sales Engineers, Key Account Managers and Business Development Managers, among others.
When recruiting for vacuum technology sales positions, we distinguish carefully between product groups and sales models.
Selling standardised vacuum pumps, for example, differs from managing projects for complete vacuum installations or providing application advice on vacuum grippers for automated machinery.
The customer environment also matters: machinery manufacturers, process plant engineering companies, industrial producers and highly specialised technical applications require different market knowledge.
We therefore assess product experience, customer industries, sales models and technical consulting skills together.
Product Managers combine technical product expertise with market requirements, sales and corporate strategy.
Their responsibilities may cover individual vacuum pump ranges, vacuum generators, gripper systems or complete vacuum solutions.
For these recruitment assignments, we consider experience in market analysis, product strategy, portfolio development, pricing and product launches.
Procurement and supply chain functions also play an important role for manufacturers of vacuum pumps and vacuum systems.
Relevant profiles include Category Managers and Supply Chain Managers.
Depending on the product portfolio, purchasing categories may include machined components, castings, motors, electronics, seals, bearings and other parts.
In recruitment, we therefore consider both functional experience and the specific technical procurement environment.
For management and executive roles, we combine our understanding of the technical market with our Executive Search expertise.
Dazu gehören beispielsweise Sales Directors and Heads of Sales, Heads of Development and Heads of R&D, CTOs, COOs and CEOs.
In filling these roles, we consider leadership experience as well as the product portfolio, technological focus, target industries, sales model and international market position.
Our recruitment consultancy focuses on technology-driven companies and industrial candidate markets. This enables us to understand and assess requirements across drive technology, fluid technology, mechanical engineering, automation and electrical engineering.
Our recruitment consultants identify suitable candidates and approach them individually and discreetly.
This allows us to reach specialists and executives who are not actively looking for a new position and would not respond to traditional job advertisements.
We do not simply check whether a job title matches a CV. What matters are the products, applications, target customers, technical interfaces and the actual scope of responsibility.

munerio supports companies throughout Germany with specialist recruitment for vacuum technology and vacuum pumps.
Whether your company is based in Baden-Württemberg, Bavaria, North Rhine-Westphalia, Lower Saxony, Hesse, Saxony or elsewhere in Germany, we focus our search on the candidate market that is actually relevant to your vacancy.
Highly specialised vacuum technology professionals are often concentrated among a relatively small number of manufacturers, system suppliers or specialist machinery companies.
A nationwide direct search can therefore be particularly effective when recruiting for development, application engineering, sales and leadership positions.
For sales and service roles, we also consider sales territories, willingness to travel, operational regions and possible remote or hybrid working arrangements.
A qualified headhunter specialising in vacuum technology should be able to assess which vacuum technologies, applications, and pressure ranges are relevant to the specific position.
When recruiting candidates, there is a significant difference between searching for a Development Engineer for screw vacuum pumps, a Sales Engineer for vacuum pumping systems, or an Application Engineer for vacuum grippers.
A specialised vacuum technology recruitment consultancy therefore begins by identifying the relevant technical talent market before directly approaching qualified specialists and executives.
Typical positions include Development Engineers, Design Engineers, Systems Engineers, Application Engineers, Project Engineers, Service Technicians, Sales Engineers, Key Account Managers, and Product Managers.
These also include leadership positions in engineering, sales, operations, and executive management.
The expertise required depends largely on whether the company develops and sells vacuum pumps, vacuum components, vacuum gripping systems, or complete industrial vacuum systems.
Industrial vacuum technology uses various vacuum pumping principles.
These include rotary vane vacuum pumps, screw vacuum pumps, claw vacuum pumps, and Roots vacuum pumps. For higher vacuum levels, additional technologies such as turbomolecular pumps are used.
The most suitable vacuum pump depends on factors such as the required pressure range, pumping speed, process conditions, and the gases or vapours being handled.
A vacuum pump is typically mechanically or electrically driven and creates a vacuum by removing gas from a system.
In industrial automation, the term vacuum generator is also commonly used for pneumatic ejectors. These use compressed air to generate a vacuum and are employed, for example, in vacuum gripping systems.
From a recruitment perspective, these technologies can represent different candidate markets: traditional vacuum pump engineering on the one hand and pneumatic automation technology on the other.
Vacuum pumps primarily remove gases to create pressures below atmospheric pressure.
In contrast, conventional industrial pumps, such as centrifugal pumps, metering pumps, axial-flow pumps, and radial-flow pumps, are mainly used to transfer liquids.
For this reason, our technology-specific pages cover vacuum pumps within the field of vacuum technology, while conventional industrial and process pumps are addressed separately under Industrial Pumps & Pump Technology.
On our jobs page, specialists and executives can explore current job opportunities in drive and fluid technology and other technical industries.
Candidates with experience in vacuum pumps, vacuum systems, application engineering, service, or technical sales are also welcome to submit a speculative application to munerio.
