R&D Engineering Student

This is a part‑time opportunity to join a hands‑on R&D engineering team and gain real‑world experience alongside experienced engineers. The role is embedded in a multidisciplinary environment and involves testing, integration, lab work, and day‑to‑day engineering support. It is well suited for technically oriented students looking to complement their studies with practical, meaningful R&D experience.

Key Responsibilities

• Support R&D activities through execution, setup, and documentation of engineering tests, including data collection and clear test reporting

• Perform mechanical and electromechanical integration of prototypes and sub‑assemblies in a multidisciplinary R&D environment

• Take day‑to‑day responsibility for the mechanics lab, including tools, equipment, consumables, readiness, and basic maintenance

• Provide purchasing, logistics, and order‑tracking support for R&D activities

• Act as a point of contact with subcontractors and vendors for parts, services, and deliveries, under engineer guidance

• Support experienced engineers with hands‑on technical tasks as needed

• Optional: Assist with mechanical design and documentation tasks using SolidWorks
