Technical work at Jost Ltd. in Langnau
Construction machinery since 1876: We assemble, inspect, and maintain cable pull machines, special winches, trailers, and hybrid emergency power systems (hNEA).
What we’re working on
At our facility, each machine goes through several stages: assembling of mechanical, hydraulic, and electrical assemblies; final assembly; commissioning; and testing – whether the machine is powered by an electric motor, a combustion engine, or a hybrid system. This is followed by service: preventive maintenance, fault diagnosis, and troubleshooting.
These are not mass-produced parts; they are machines that have to operate with high reliability under load in the field.
How we work
Jost Ltd. is a company located on Obermattweg in Langnau im Emmental – a location steeped in tradition, with a manageable size. Employees here take on responsibility early on. The ability to think proactively is a must.
The work is carried out in historic buildings at the company’s founding site, which have now been modernized to meet Minergie standards: heated by a heat pump and lit with LED lighting. Electricity is supplied by two on-site photovoltaic systems.
Job descriptions
Agricultural machinery mechanics, mechatronics technicians, automation technicians, and electrical mechanics work on the machinery. In addition, the company handles construction in collaboration with its sister Engineering firm, opdesign ltd., as well as the sale of machinery, equipment, and trailers, and the business administration of the company.

- Progressive employment terms with flexible working hours
- flat hierarchies
- Free parking with free charging for electric cars
- Bright, functional lobby with natural light
- two to three team events per year
- A beautiful place to work surrounded by the natural beauty of the Emmental
