Praktikant*in Powertrain Technologieentwicklung Laser; Pflicht-Praktikum

Research And Development In Laser Technology And Cell Technique

In the background of increasing requirements for the use of joining technology in the electric powertrain, laser material processing shows great application potential.

In the team of laser technology and cell technique in Stuttgart-Untertürkheim, we develop and qualify new laser processing procedures for applications in battery cells and modules, e-motors, and transmissions. In our own application laboratory, new ideas and system technology components are tested and further developed in a practical way.

These challenges come to you:

• Introduction to the state of the art (including literature research) and plant technology
• Independently conducting laser welding experiments
• Evaluation, interpretation, and presentation of experimental and measurement data
• Material-technical investigations in the metallography laboratory
• Use of different measurement and analysis techniques
• Conception, construction, and realization of experimental and test setups
• Experimental validation of new approaches and ideas

The internship can start from July/August 2026.

Qualifications:

• Study in the field of mechanical engineering, vehicle technology, physics or physical technology, aerospace technology, optics or laser technology, materials technology, or a comparable course of study
• Secure German and English language skills in speech and writing
• Secure handling of MS-Office as well as a 3D-CAD program
• Ideally, first theoretical or practical experience in the field of laser technology and/or their application in material processing
• Structured and independent working method, analytical and conceptual abilities as well as a high degree of reliability
• Team capability, initiative, and performance readiness

Please note that your internship at this location must have a prescribed compulsory component.
