Welcome message by the hiring manager:


Kristaps Ramiņš

CEO at Filter SIA

Earth without “art” will be just “Eh”. Our projects without design will be even worse.

For 30 years in Latvia, we have been creating different solutions for our customers. These solutions help all of us to improve our quality of life – clean water, warm houses unpolluted air around us, and much more. Every project starts with a design which is a highly important phase, the first step of creating, sometimes very complex, solutions for reaching dedicated goals.

We are growing and we see the importance of high-quality design in every project. Today there are strong and experienced designers in our company, today we are creating a team for better collaboration, for higher quality, and for better development.

If you find yourself a good leader, able to grow a team, able to share your experiences in design, and able and willing to learn and develop – join us, we will be happy to welcome you on board!

We are proud of our journey so far. Here´ s why:

  • Our designers can create technically complex water treatment and energy solutions. Our designs can be found in small startup businesses, major city municipalities, and large factories alike.
  • Our design team has solid experience in the water treatment and energy sector. This experience is being enlarged daily as new technologies like electrode boilers, a variety of heat pump solutions, solar energy, and hydrogen are coming onto the market and are part of our projects.
  • Our design team has great daily support from other departments – sales, service, logistics, and administration dealing with energy solutions.

  • You have graduated from university with a technical (Bachelors) degree.
  • You have solid experience in engineering solutions design (Civil Engineering, Thermal, Heating and Ventilation, Water Supply, and Sewerage).
  • A very good experience using AutoCAD or similar (3D).
  • You can say, that you are experienced in consulting customers to find efficient production processes/solutions.
  • Team Lead potential.
  • Your Latvian language skills are at C1 and English at B1 level.

You´ d stand out if you had:

  • Related certificates (Civil Engineering, Thermal, Heating and Ventilation, Water Supply and Sewerage).
  • Experience in building and leading a team.

In return, we offer:

  • To be a part of a company where you can influence and shape its future, be a part of the success story.
