Careers

Help us build engineering solutions that work in the real world.

At MET Advanced Technology Systems, we want to meet people who will help develop robotic automation, special-purpose machinery, mechanical systems, software, manufacturing solutions and R&D projects. The work does not stop at a CAD model or concept: it continues through engineering decisions, fabrication, assembly, testing and deployment.

We welcome applications throughout the year. Our Design Engineer, Software Developer and Automation Engineer positions are always open; other roles are reviewed according to our project needs and hiring plans.

Important: Job applications are accepted only through the forms on this page.

All job and internship applications, and any questions about open positions, must be submitted through the application forms on this page. CVs and applications sent by email, phone or social media will not be evaluated or answered. We do not accept phone calls, company visits or in-person meeting requests during the early stages of the process; we will contact shortlisted candidates ourselves after reviewing their forms.

To get started: Select the role that best matches your interests, complete its application form thoughtfully, and attach your CV or portfolio where requested. Forms are our preferred channel and are the starting point for your assessment.

Your application form is our first introduction.

A CV alone rarely shows how someone actually approaches engineering work. That is why our role-specific forms ask about the projects you have worked on, the decisions you made, the tools you use, how you solve problems and what you want to learn next. Your answers contribute to the initial review.

  • Be specific. Describe what you personally did, what decisions you made and what happened. Examples from CAD-to-manufacturing work, commissioning, troubleshooting, code deployment or shop-floor improvement are valuable.
  • Be candid. We do not expect every candidate to know every technology. Sound judgment, willingness to learn and the ability to explain both successes and mistakes matter.
  • Complete the relevant form. Include your CV, portfolio, GitHub profile or shareable project examples when the form asks. Do not share confidential documents belonging to a previous employer or client.
  • Use your own voice. Clear examples of your actual experience are more useful than generic prepared statements. You may use writing or AI tools, but you remain responsible for the accuracy of any claims you make.

The scope and duration vary by role. Some forms may take approximately 20–30 minutes. Set aside uninterrupted time and read the instructions before submitting.

Job applications

Please read the role description before applying. On each card, open the role description (PDF) first; the application form then unlocks. Forms open in a new tab. For internships, please use the Internships page.

Application and assessment process

Our assessment steps are tailored to the role and the candidate. Not everyone will follow exactly the same sequence.

  1. Application and initial review. We review your form responses and any CV, portfolio or work samples. Completing the form starts the assessment; it does not guarantee an interview or offer.
  2. Online discussion or technical exercise. We may invite suitable candidates directly to an online introductory/technical interview. For certain roles we may first assign a bounded practical exercise with clearly stated deliverables and a deadline.
  3. In-person assessment. Where useful, we may invite you to MET Factory in Teknopark Izmir, Urla for a face-to-face conversation, facility introduction or short supervised practical assessment representative of the work. Scope and conditions are communicated in advance.
  4. Outcome and next steps. We consider technical skills, ownership, communication and current project needs, and contact candidates when we identify an appropriate next step and timing.

About take-home exercises: Not all candidates receive one. The invitation sets the scope, expectations and submission window. For example, some design exercises have a three-calendar-day submission window, although the expected active work time is shorter. Exercises assess engineering reasoning; they are not a way to obtain free commercial deliverables.

Contact: Forms are preferred. For general introductions or technical problems with a form, use insankaynaklari@metltd.net. We do not accept employment or internship applications by telephone or unscheduled factory visits.

Explore our work before applying

We encourage you to learn about our machines, projects and engineering approach so you can judge whether the role is right for you.

Following our social accounts is optional and is not a hiring criterion. What matters is understanding the work and making an informed application.
