THE WHAT Build, program, and bring automation systems to life. You support our Automation team in building control cabinets, commissioning machines, developing PLC programs, and creating electrical circuit diagrams. You get hands-on with real industrial automation systems, explore different technical approaches, and help turn engineering concepts into working solutions. THE WHY To end COPV failure in spaceflight. Reliable and scalable production is essential to manufacturing high-performance composite pressure vessels.
Automation helps us improve manufacturing processes, increase consistency, and build reliable production systems. Your work supports the development and commissioning of the machines that make this possible. YOUR IMPACT You don't just support automation projects. You help turn ideas into working systems. You contribute to: Building and wiring control cabinets for production machinery Commissioning machines and bringing automation systems into operation Developing and improving PLC programs Creating and interpreting electrical circuit diagrams using EPLAN Testing technical solutions, identifying issues, and supporting troubleshooting Improving automation processes through practical ideas and hands-on experimentation Your tasks in detail Build control cabinets: Support the assembly and wiring of electrical control cabinets and gain practical experience with industrial electrical systems. → High Performance: Build it right.
Bring machines to life: Support machine commissioning, test functions, and help ensure automation systems work as intended. → Ownership: Make it work. Create electrical documentation: Support the creation and interpretation of electrical circuit diagrams using EPLAN and help keep technical documentation accurate and up to date. → High Performance: Make it clear. Explore new solutions: Bring ideas from university projects, personal electronics projects, or other practical experiences into real automation challenges.
Test different approaches, learn quickly, and contribute creative ideas to improve automation solutions. → Ownership: Turn ideas into solutions. Work as one team: Share progress, communicate technical questions and blockers early, raise potential risks, and coordinate dependencies with teammates to keep projects moving. → Togetherness: Build it together. Must-haves Currently studying Electrical Engineering, Automation Engineering, Mechatronics, Robotics / Control Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a comparable field Foundation in electrical engineering, including signals, sensors, and actuators Practical programming experience Practical exposure to automation systems through university projects, internships, personal projects, or similar experience Independent and responsible working style: You structure tasks, document your work clearly, check your results carefully and deliver reliable, high-quality outcomes with appropriate guidance after onboarding Open and proactive communication, a hands-on mindset and willingness to work on-site in both Garching and Taufkirchen Nice to have Hands-on experience with PLCs and control systems, creating or interpreting electrical circuit diagrams, EPLAN or other electrical CAD software Experience with Arduino, Raspberry Pi, microcontrollers, DIY electronics projects, CAD software, or 3D printing Choose your own benefit: Germany ticket, Egym Wellpass, or a tax-free Give Card Healthy & social lunch culture: Fresh meals during shared lunch breaks High level of autonomy & real impact: You own a critical seam in the business — between what we sell and what we build Startup mindset meets aerospace innovation: Flat hierarchies, fast decisions, and space for your ideas Stunning views: Rooftop terrace with views of the Alps in Taufkirchen, or indoor garden in Garching-Hochbrück Growth opportunities: Work on technically demanding projects with real stakes We live our team culture: From tech talks to team events and after-work gatherings — we celebrate success together
