Rope Access Technician / Level 2 (m/f/d) - Gigafactory Berlin-Brandenburg

What To Expect

We are building a strong internal rope access team and are looking for a solid Level 2 industrial climber with FISAT Level 2 or IRATA Level 2 certification.

You will carry out demanding rope access work at height and in confined spaces, apply advanced rigging techniques, assist in rescues, and deliver safe, high-quality results under the direction of a Level 3 Rope Access Supervisor.

As a key team member, you will work closely with the supervisor, EHS, and maintenance teams to keep operations running smoothly and efficiently.

What You'll Do

• Safe and efficient execution of rope access maneuvers (vertical/horizontal access, traversing, deviations, re‑belays, tensioned lines)
• Advanced rigging of working ropes (Y‑hangs, pull‑through systems, rope protection, horizontal lifelines)
• Performing and assisting in complex rescues (hauling systems, casualty retrieval from ascent/descent, past obstacles)
• Inspection, maintenance, proper use, and storage of personal and team rope access equipment (including pre‑use and periodic checks per DGUV 312-906)
• Recognizing hazards on site, implementing corrective measures, and reporting directly to the Level 3 Supervisor
• Supporting the preparation and implementation of risk assessments, rescue plans, and method statements under supervision
• Conducting buddy‑system checks, safety briefings/toolbox talks, and ensuring full compliance with FISAT/IRATA standards
• Documentation of work performed and equipment usage in the CMMS or site logs
• Mentoring and guiding Level 1 technicians during joint operations
• Close collaboration with EHS, engineering, maintenance teams, and external partners
• If no rope access work is ongoing, any other work will be assigned within the technical service team and scope

What You'll Bring

• Valid FISAT Level 2 or IRATA Level 2 certification (mandatory)
• Proven experience in industrial rope access (minimum 1 year / ~1000 logged hours recommended, including advanced maneuvers and rescues)
• Solid knowledge of rope access equipment, knots, rigging methods, and rescue procedures
• Strong understanding of occupational safety regulations, PPE (PSAgA), and relevant standards (DGUV, FISAT/IRATA)
• Practical team experience, including buddy‑system work and hazard recognition
• Reliable, physically fit, and highly safety-conscious
• Good communication skills – able to work under supervision while showing initiative on technical tasks
• Willingness for flexible working hours, occasional travel, and continuous training/certification maintenance
• Von Kandidaten wird erwartet, dass sie Nachhaltigkeitsprinzipien in ihrer täglichen Arbeit aufrechterhalten und aktiv fördern, dabei im Einklang mit der globalen Tesla-Richtlinie für Umwelt, Gesundheit, Sicherheit und Schutz (EHS&S) sowie den EMAS-Anforderungen handeln und eine Kultur der kontinuierlichen Umweltverbesserung fördern.
