About the role The Microfactory serves as our advanced internal sample shop, bridging the gap between early product design and global mass production. In this role, your main focus will be supporting day-to-day sample shop operations, executing physical engineering improvement projects, and helping build early product variants. Additionally, you will participate in special projects to support the gradual introduction of Manufacturing 4.0 / Industry 4.0 initiatives (such as smart tools and digital data capture) under the guidance of senior engineers. Your future tasks at a glance * Sample Shop Support & Build Execution: Assist the engineering team in preparing, physically assembling, and tracking early-stage prototypes, alpha/beta samples, and variant builds within the microfactory. * Process Improvement Projects: Proactively identify baseline process bottlenecks or layout inefficiencies on the floor. Bring creative ideas to the team and collaborate directly with engineers to physically implement and execute these workplace improvements. * Equipment & Assembly Upgrades: Assist in installing, maintaining, and upgrading physical assembly fixtures, mechanical workbenches, and hardware components inside the microfactory. * Manufacturing 4.0 & Traceability Support: Support secondary engineering projects focused on smart factory tool configuration, component tracking integration (e.g., hardware scanning, torque logging), and digital work instructions. * Lessons Learned & Documentation: Help capture data, parameter records, and assembly issues encountered during sample builds to compile clear, insightful documentation for our external production partners. What you bring with you * Current Studies: Enrolled in a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree program in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Industrial Engineering, Mechatronics, Manufacturing Engineering, or a related technical discipline. * Hands-On Mindset: Highly motivated by hands-on engineering tasks. You love moving between a technical workspace and a physical assembly bench to build things and tackle technical challenges. * Proactive Approach: A self-starter attitude with the ability to look at processes on the shop floor, spot layout or assembly inefficiencies, and pitch action plans. * Technical Basics: Familiarity with core Lean principles, cycle times, takt times, and how process constraints impact overall production flow. Exposure to or interest in smart factory elements is beneficial. * Communication: Collaborative team player with solid written and verbal communication habits in English.
