Praktikant*in Aufbau eines Systemarchitekturmodels eines elektrischen Antriebs; Pflicht-Praktikum

Research And Development Internship

The Mercedes-Benz Group AG is one of the most successful automotive companies in the world. With the Mercedes-Benz AG, the vehicle manufacturer is one of the largest providers of premium and luxury cars and vans.

The core competence of the center is the development and testing of electric drives and transmissions as well as all essential powertrain components, such as side and drive shafts. Only the perfect interplay of all components results in a system that provides driving pleasure, comfort, and optimal efficiency.

Our department is responsible for the first Mercedes-Benz internal developed and produced electric drive, which is used in compact cars as well as in mid-size and upper-class vehicles including AMG. From the volume segment to AMG, this drive offers a wide range of performance and torque. The internship position is integrated into the newly established system development process. Coming from requirements from the overall vehicle, it is necessary in the systems engineering (SE) to develop, specify, and consistently validate the increasingly complex functionalities in the early phase of the development process across all functionally involved systems and components in the electric power train.

It is becoming increasingly important for the systems to describe the system architecture (components, interfaces, information and power flow, cause and effect chains, functionalities, and operating strategies) from the ground up in the MBSE (model based system engineering) tools.

A central task of this internship position is to build up the system architecture for the electric drive together with the involved system engineers in MBSE.

The topic includes the following tasks:

• Participation in the system development records of the electric HA-drive systems of Mercedes Benz
• Participation in the overall system rounds of the eDrive in the context of SE (systems engineering)
• Introduction to the MBSE tool world of RD/E
• Conception/construction of the system architecture of eATS.
  2.0 in the used tool
• Regular reports on the respective development status
• Identification of topics/tasks around system engineering that can be supported by AI and their implementation

Our team consists of seven highly motivated and friendly colleagues who look forward to your support. We value communicating on an equal footing, directly and in regular exchange meetings. It is also important to us that we deal constructively and honestly with each other.

The activity can start in September 2026.

Qualifications:

• University studies in mechanical engineering, vehicle technology, electrical engineering, mechatronics, computer science, or comparable fields
• Secure handling of Microsoft Office
• Previous knowledge of MBSE is an advantage
• Fluent German and English
• Reliable handling of complex problems in interdisciplinary teams
• Communication and team skills, resilience

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