Date: Jul 30, 2026

Location: Stuttgart-Untertürkheim, BW, DE, 70372

Company: cellcentric GmbH & Co. KG

Everyone's talking about sustainable energy - we're getting it on track.

We are a company with probably the most experienced employees in our technology field in the world. As a joint venture of Daimler Truck AG and the Volvo Group AB, we are responsible for all activities along the entire value chain for fuel cell systems: from research and development to production and marketing for use in trucks and other applications outside vehicles. The goal is to establish cellcentric as a leading global manufacturer of fuel cells, contributing to climate-neutral and sustainable transportation.

 

Process development plays a very important role in achieving our goal: competitive series production can only be established through innovative processes. The "Process Development Catalyst Coated Membrane (CCM)" team is responsible for the development of the entire manufacturing processes for the in-house production of the CCM. This work includes the fabrication of electrodes used in Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells (PEMFCs). During this internship, a novel measurement method will be developed and applied to characterize the CCM manufacturing process for PEM fuel cells, while the resulting data will be analyzed to gain insights into process–structure–property relationships. 

 

Responsibilities:

  • You develop a solid understanding of raw materials, manufacturing processes, and their impact on product properties. 

  • You conduct measurements and experimental studies, analyze the results, and derive meaningful conclusions. 

  • You compare new results with established measurement methods and evaluate their advantages and limitations. 

  • You analyze measurement and sensor data using appropriate statistical and data analysis techniques. 

  • You document your findings clearly and provide regular updates on project progress to relevant stakeholders. 

 

Experience and Qualification:

  • You are studying in a Science, Technology and Engineering field. 

  • You have strong programming skills and ideally some experience with robots. 

  • You bring solid knowledge of materials and their properties. 

  • You have experience with production processes and measurement technology. 

  • You can perform analytical data processing. 

  • You have excellent MS Office skills (PowerPoint, Excel, Word) and can communicate fluently in English and with business fluency in German. 

  • You work independently, reliably, structured, and creatively. 

 

Benefits:

  • We offer you interesting, autonomous and varied activities with corresponding development prospects in a traditional company with a start-up mentality in one of the top future industries. 
  • With us you can arrange your working hours flexibly and also work on a mobile basis.
  • Our canteen provides you with soul food at a discounted price.

 

Additional information: 

Proof of current enrollment in a degree program with outstanding exams is required. 

The position will only be filled full-time for approximately 6 months.
