Student Assistant for the Section of Systems and Integration Management

Are you systematic and have a flair for keeping order in rather unwieldy data models, or do you just think organizing things is a party?

We are looking for someone who can help our engineers keep track of documentation and make their everyday life easier. If you are used to neatly placing all your files in folders on the computer and love planning in Excel, then this position is for you.
