Jobs & apprenticeships

Apprenticeships at gemelo. From the office to the installation site.

We build interactive exhibits, media technology and software for museums and exhibitions – and look after the IT of companies. That’s why we’re always looking for apprentices who are into technology you can see, hear and touch. With us, you won’t learn from practice exercises but on real projects.

We train apprentices

Three apprenticeships – one team.

Software, IT and media technology work right next door to each other here. Whatever you build, program or set up ends up in a museum – or keeps a company’s IT running.

On site

This is where it gets real.

Before an exhibition opens, we’re on site: we build technology into furniture and walls, pull and label cables, align projectors and commission everything. A few impressions from our installation sites.

A large sphere wrapped in film and hung with red-and-white barrier tape floats beneath the Gothic vault of a brick hall; next to it a mobile scaffold and an assembly frame — Looks like a jellyfish, but it’s going to be a globe: installation at the German Oceanographic Museum in Stralsund.

A hand holds a labelled orange cable in front of a wooden frame — Every cable labelled – so you can find it again later.

Back of a light wall with rows of LED modules, a power supply and terminals — LED modules behind a light wall.

Media players, power supplies and cables mounted in the open wooden frame of an exhibition wall — Media players and power supplies in the wooden frame of a wall.

A hand holds two wire connectors with wires attached — Handiwork: connecting with wire connectors.

Ladder and mobile scaffold reaching up to the ceiling of an exhibition hall, with cable routes and a curved ceiling element at the top — Right up to the ceiling: cable routes, lights and speakers.

Coiled orange, black and white cables in an open wooden frame — Cables for the projectors before the wall is closed up.

Large exhibition hall under construction with a light ceiling: half-assembled wooden furniture, panels on the floor, a mobile scaffold — Everything’s still open – soon there’ll be an exhibition here.

Opened media column from the inside: display, mounts and computer behind an orange door — A media column from the inside.

Large exhibition table with models and display boards, with an open maintenance hatch revealing technology at the side — An exhibition table being installed – the maintenance hatch is still open.

Underside of a media table: perforated metal sheet with computer, power strip and neatly routed cables — Computer and cabling under a media table.

What to expect

More than a desk job.

Real projects

What you build ends up in a museum and is used by visitors every day – we’ve already completed more than 480 projects.

On the road all over Germany

Our installation sites stretch from Stralsund to Munich, sometimes all over Europe. Installation means travelling there together and getting stuck in on site.

Everything under one roof

Software, IT and media technology work hand in hand here. You see how it all fits together – and learn more than just your own trade.

Lots of tech

Besides cables and code: 3D printing, sensors, projection, augmented reality and media control.

Part of the team from day one

You work in a team with experienced colleagues – in the office, at clients’ premises and on site. Get to know our team.

In Hamburg

Our office is at Stresemannstraße 375 in Hamburg. From here, we head out to the installation sites and to our clients.

And afterwards

This is what it looks like when everything’s up and running.

Cables, computers and scaffolding disappear – what’s left are exhibitions that visitors can touch, hear and experience. We built a few of them.

Glowing globe projection beneath the Gothic vaulting of the Oceanographic Museum — Globe projection in the Gothic vault

Glowing globe surrounded by game stations and visitors — Globe with game stations

Interactive table in a bright exhibition about cranes — Interactive media table

Exhibition room with large-format backlit images, media tables and headphones — Backlit images, media tables and sound
