Working Student/Internship in Impedance Sensing (f/m/d)

Responsibilities

• Design and develop rapid prototypes of hardware (including PCB design, schematic capture, and board bring-up) and software (firmware, data processing) for robotics applications.
• Implement and test proof-of-concept solutions for tactile sensing, motion control, and human-machine interaction using Renesas platforms.
• Collaborate with cross-functional engineering and application teams to translate requirements into functional prototypes.
• Conduct system integration, debugging, and validation of HW/SW modules in real-world robotics use cases (e.g., robotic hands, grippers, mobility systems).
• Document design concepts, PCB layouts, experimental results, and prototype performance, supporting internal demos and customer-facing presentations.
• Currently enrolled in a Bachelor's or Master's program in Electrical Engineering, Robotics, or a related field
• Basic hands-on experience with PCB design tools (e.g., Altium) and embedded programming on microcontrollers
• Understanding of robotics fundamentals such as sensors, control systems, or kinematics is an advantage
• Experience with electronics lab tools (oscilloscope, multimeter, power supplies) is a plus
• Familiarity with programming languages such as C/C++, Python for embedded or prototyping tasks
• Basic knowledge of communication protocols (UART, SPI, I2C, CAN) is desirable
• Strong problem-solving skills and ability to work in a hands-on prototyping environment
• Ability to work independently as well as collaborate in a cross-functional, international team
• Good documentation and communication skills in English
