  • Ability to understand and describe technical concepts clearly, with strong skills in technical writing and documentation structuring.
  • Proficiency in English (and ideally German) in written form, with attention to grammar, clarity, and consistent terminology.
  • Comfort using office and documentation tools (e.g., Microsoft Office, PDF editors, content or document management systems).
  • Strong organizational and time-management abilities, including working accurately with version control and deadlines.
  • Enrollment in a relevant university program (e.g., engineering, natural sciences, technical communication, or related field).
  • Analytical mindset and willingness to learn, with the ability to collaborate effectively in a multidisciplinary team.
  • Interest in biomedical technology and regulated environments; prior experience with technical documentation is an advantage.

Working student essentials

What this Engineering working student role in Munich means for you: the weekly-hours rules, the social-contribution perks, and what international students should check before applying.

Weekly hours

Working students may work up to 20 hours a week during the semester and full-time during the breaks. Staying within this keeps your student status and the Werkstudent benefits.

Working student rules

Social contributions

Under the Werkstudentenprivileg you're exempt from health, care and unemployment insurance contributions — only pension insurance applies. That leaves more net pay than a regular job.

Check your insurance

International students

Non-EU students can work 140 full or 280 half days per year (raised from 120/240 in March 2024). A working student contract usually fits within this — confirm the exact limits printed on your residence permit.
