Mobility and Mechatronics


The Sector Mobility and Mechatronics is a melting pot of many technical disciplines which make up a complex ecosystem in which the traditional mechanical engineering knowledge, like metal forming, cohabits with state of the art of the most recent developments in AI and the Internet of Things, like the autonomous vehicle, the aerospace industry or developments in optics and physical sensors.

Diversity and Inclusion are deeply rooted in our values, just as diverse is the origin and background of our examiners and formalities officers.

Diversity is who we are and who we aspire to be. It is our strength and our pride.

Our examiners and formalities officers based in Munich and The Hague are committed to contribute that the EPO provides the highest quality to our users while timely delivering our products.

We employ mechanical and mechatronics engineers from all technical fields, and also physicists and electrical engineers; certain knowledge in chemistry is also needed in very specific fields.
