Why do I work at Solaga?
How can the urban areas of the future become greener and more liveable?
As an engineer at Solaga, I am dedicated to the task of designing a self-sufficient and sustainable biofilm reactor that purifies the city air and at the same time has a negative CO2 balance. So that fresh air does not become luxury.

Alex
I am doing an internship at Solaga because I am interested in sustainable solutions in the field of energy technology.

Anika
I am a trained biology laboratory assistant from Leipzig. I came across Solaga on the Internet and was very enthusiastic about the diverse projects related to biofilm research right from the start.

Kevin
As a mechanical engineer, it is exciting to work in a start-up where I have the opportunity to develop a product from scratch and contribute my own ideas. The interdisciplinary work motivates me additionally.

Jacob
I come from India. I am recent master graduate in Engineering and International Business in Renewable Energy, Waste and Water Management. I found Solaga interesting after recognizing the Biological Air Filtration Technology. I feel this technology plays a very important role in achieving the Sustainable development goals.

Akshay
I have been working for over 7 years in the field of tension between nature and technology, and I am still fascinated by the undiscovered abilities of nature and especially microorganisms.
Natural and clean solutions need sustainable business models
With Solaga I would like to contribute a small piece to the puzzle to make the world a healthier and cleaner place.
