Sampling and Laboratory Technician

The company

30% of global agricultural raw materials end up as wasted resources. In other words, 6% of our global carbon emissions are generated for nothing. That’s it.

At Hubcycle, we are reshaping the food industry by transforming overlooked by-products into competitive ingredients. Our approach hacks conventional supply chains, demanding boldness, peak performance, pragmatism, and collaboration. This should never prevent us from delivering the highest food safety standards, though.

We act as professionals, always. 

Our culture

We believe a great workplace is about working alongside exceptional people who push us forward. We cultivate a culture of excellence, ownership, and impact, ensuring that each person at Hubcycle contributes meaningfully to our mission.
This requires creativity, resilience, and a hunger to challenge the norm. We are not here to play it safe; we are here to build a company that changes how the world sources food.

We move fast. We expect excellence. 

We challenge each other constantly. We don’t hide behind excuses. We don’t tolerate mediocre standards, negligence, nor carelessness. 


This environment is demanding and high-impact, but deeply rewarding. Let’s be clear: 
Even if this sounds sexy, Hubcycle is not for everyone.
