Working Student Battery Testing Intern

Your Mission:

Be part of aviation history at VÆRIDION, where we’re building the world’s first electric 9-seater aircraft. As a Working Student in Battery Testing (all genders) within the Test Department, you will support the validation of our battery system across all levels, from cell to module to pack and system integration. This includes performance, environmental, and abuse-related testing. You will take ownership of hands-on test setup work (mechanical and electrical), supported by experienced engineers, and directly contribute to safe, reliable, and certification-ready battery hardware.

Your Day-to-Day:

• Support and own defined work packages in battery test campaigns (setup, execution support, troubleshooting, data processing, reporting).

• Build and improve mechanical and electrical test setups(fixtures, sensors, wiring).

• Post-process and visualize test data; create small tools/scripts for automation.

• Support test documentation and coordination with internal stakeholders and external labs.

• Contribute to ad-hoc tasks with a practical, solution-oriented mindset.

Your Profile:

• Currently enrolled in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, or similar.

• Basic understanding of Lithium-ion batteries(e.g., from a lecture) and strong interest in battery testing.

• Hands-on mindset (lab work, building setups, instrumentation).

• Basic programming experience (Python or MATLAB) and motivation to learn additional tools (e.g.,data/reporting toolchains, automotive-grade ana lysis software).

• Reliable and structured, proactive and curious.

• Fluent in English (required); German skills are a strong plus.

Why us?

• Be part of an ambitious team determined to shape the future of aviation.

• Subsidized EGYM Wellpass membership: your (mental) health is important for us.

• Enjoy a subsidized lunch with a 5€ company contribution per meal on office days.

• Boost your professional as well as personal growth executing your own ideas and independent projects.

• Join our internal social events and retreats (e.g. cooking, game nights, sports).
