Working Student Battery Testing (all genders)

Your mission

Be part of aviation history at VÆRIDION, where we’re building the world’s first electric 9-seater aircraft. As a Working Student in Battery Testing (all genders) within the Test Department, you will support the validation of our battery system across all levels, from cell to module to pack and system integration. This includes performance, environmental, and abuse-related testing. You will take ownership of hands-on test setup work (mechanical and electrical), supported by experienced engineers, and directly contribute to safe, reliable, and certification-ready battery hardware.

Your Day-to-Day

• Support and own defined work packages in battery test campaigns (setup, execution support, troubleshooting, data processing, reporting).
• Build and improve mechanical and electrical test setups(fixtures, sensors, wiring).
• Post-process and visualize test data; create small tools/scripts for automation.
• Support test documentation and coordination with internal stakeholders and external labs.
• Contribute to ad-hoc tasks with a practical, solution-oriented mindset.

Your profile

• Currently enrolled in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, or similar.
• Basic understanding of Lithium-ion batteries(e.g., from a lecture) and strong interest in battery testing.
• Hands-on mindset (lab work, building setups, instrumentation).
• Basic programming experience (Python or MATLAB) and motivation to learn additional tools (e.g.,data/reporting toolchains, automotive-grade ana lysis software).
• Reliable and structured, proactive and curious.
• Fluent in English (required); German skills are a strong plus.

Why us?

About us

VÆRIDION is a fast-growing deep tech start-up based in Munich, Germany. Since the restrictions by law on CO₂ emissions for domestic and short-haul air travel will stimulate Green Regional Air Mobility, we believe it's our mission to provide an aircraft for Zero emission regional flights.  
At VÆRIDION our goal is to develop, build and certify a full electric microliner carrying up to 9 passengers for Short-Haul and Regional Air Mobility by 2030. A full electric microliner is cleaner and cheaper to operate than other aeroplanes in its class, it  provides a better travel experience door to door up to 500 km. We offer new optimized design based on proven principles, around  proven and available technology in electric motors and batteries, that brings lowest risk and shortest route to certification.
