🔥 We challenge you!
• Design and create control electronics; pragmatically create the control components and sensors (hardware) that allow the drill to be controlled automatically. Make the software to do the control. You will use Arduino’s, raspberry Pi’s to do so. You will devise control strategies for optimizing the drilling process.
• The electrical design now consists of electrical drives connected to the main power. Your first task will be to define and build an electrical design that allows the drives to be speed controlled (instead of on/off).
• Test prototypes; you participate in frequent tests in order to validate your designs and designs other team mates come up with.
‍
👉🏼 You are
•  You are flexible and able to cope with the uncertainties (and freedom!) of working at a start-up. Plans may change overnight; structures are not yet firmly in place. You need to deliver on the goal, but how you do it is very much up to you.
•  Excellent problem-solving abilities and a desire to learn and grow in a dynamic environment.
•  Strong collaborative mindset willing to learn by experimenting and doing.
•  Passion for green technology and sustainability initiatives.
‍
đź‘©đź’» Requirements
•  You are a pragmatic and enthusiastic individual pursuing a degree in Electrotechnical engineering, informatics, or related technical fields. (HBO, bachelor / electrical engineering)
•  Passion for making things work. Your practical talent to create a real, working prototype is what counts most in this assignment. You have a passion for making stuff work. Being able to analyze your work and come up with rapid solutions to improve it.
• Pragmatism; what works works. Solutions do not have to be perfect, you need to be able to build control devices using Arduino, raspberry Pi, or similar platforms which actually connect to sensors and electric drives.
•  Skills; You have to have knowledge of relevant software and hardware, and are not scared of soldering, debugging memory addresses and PWM signals.
•  Digital skills; you need sufficient knowledge of relevant programming languages and tools
•  You are legally allowed to work in the Netherlands (EU resident or work permit)
‍
🏦 What do you get in return?
• Improve your rapid prototyping skills
• Receive practical training on several new machines (you will be using when building the prototypes).
• Gain valuable hands-on experience in a start-up environment dedicated to sustainable tech solutions.
•  Mentorship from seasoned professionals (22+ years working experience).
• Being part of a start-up community (Yes!Delft) with plenty networking opportunities and exposure to innovative technology.
• Opportunity to work on cutting-edge solutions in a super innovative and pragmatic setting.
• Internship compensation is available.
• Contribute to solutions that make a real difference in sustainability and the environment.
