Tech Stack

Description

As a working student, you will set up and support lab and onboard test measurements, optimize 3D printing processes, and assist with prototyping and engineering documentation for counter-drone systems. You'll work at the intersection of aerospace engineering, defence systems, and machine learning to build the world's first swarm-based airborne counter-drone system.

Requirements

  • Valid work permit (citizenship or visa) for Germany
  • Currently enrolled in a university within Germany
  • Aerospace, mechanical engineering, or similar background
  • CAD and 3D printing experience
  • Knowledge of electronics and embedded systems (Arduino, Raspberry Pi, sensors, DAQs)
  • Understanding of drone/aircraft design and development cycles
  • Hands-on, proactive, and organized team player
  • Comfortable working autonomously in lab and workshop environments

Responsibilities

  • Set up and support lab and onboard test measurements (vibration, temperature, motors, structures)
  • Research and prepare DAQs, sensors, and test instrumentation
  • Improve prototyping lab tools, layout, and workflows
  • Optimize 3D printing processes and part quality
  • Support prototyping, assembly, and test activities
  • Manage 3D printing operations and part post-processing
  • Assist with component selection and engineering documentation (ISO 9001/9100)
  • Provide hands-on support during peak workload phases
