You will actively shape the production of tomorrow: from Industry 4.0 projects to digital solutions for real-world manufacturing processes—making a genuine impact.
You will work with interdisciplinary teams, modern technologies, and agile methodologies—and develop purposefully toward leadership alongside your personal mentor.
Your academic foundation:
You have graduated with an outstanding (full-time) Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Production Technology, Industrial Engineering, or a related field. Topics such as lean production, automation, digitalization, or AI genuinely excite you. Perhaps you already bring initial work experience or a PhD.
Your passion for production & technology:
You burn for manufacturing. For real processes. For visible results. You don't just want to understand how things work—you want to make them better.
Your eye for the bigger picture:
You don't just think in isolated projects; you want to understand how everything connects—and how you can make a real difference in a global enterprise.
Your understanding of human-centric leadership:
For you, people are the key. You inspire others, approach people openly, and believe that strong teams can achieve great things.
You think strategically and shape the future
You challenge the status quo, bring in your own ideas, and have the drive to actually implement them. You already bring initial practical experience—for example, through internships.
Your continuous development
You want to grow—both professionally and personally. You are curious, learn quickly, and tackle challenges proactively.
Your language proficiency
You communicate fluently in both English and German (negotiation level). You have already gained at least three months of international experience.
