What's the role?
You will be working in a cross-functional team newly founded to develop highly innovative products for construction industry. You will investigate novel concepts of high power drives and the associated electronics for power tools and drive their optimization strongly contributing to further differentiate our tools from the competition.
Start date is flexible to the student's availability, duration of at least 6 months
Who is Hilti?
At Hilti, we are a passionate global team committed to making construction better. As a trusted partner for productivity, safety, and sustainability, we provide our customers innovative solutions that impact the buildings, roads, and infrastructure people rely on every day. Hilti is where individuals grow lasting careers by exploring possibilities, maximizing their potential, owning their, and making a real difference every day.
What does the role involve?
Your key assignment will be the analysis of a first prototype of a highly efficient DC/DC-converter in order to assess its efficiency, thermal behaviour, EMC as well accuracy and dynamic performance. Based on this profound testing potential improvements shall be derived and implemented in new design iterations. A crucial part will be development of an adequate simulation model which shall consider losses and the dynamic behaviour so as to be able to carry out system tests. Located in Schaan at our headquarters, you will closely cooperate with leading experts and suppliers in the field.
Are you passionate about power electronics and adept in designing ultra-high efficient topologies? Are you hung up on setting up and optimise a simulation model which perfectly matches the test results in practise? Have you pored over the various fancy resonant topologies and derived your own conclusions? If you like to think outside the box, are keen on driving interesting topics and wish to further develop yourself in an inspiring atmosphere then get into gears and submit your application. We are looking forward to getting to know you!
What do we offer?
We really value our people, and we've worked hard to develop a reward package that reflects this, creating your future to be just how you would want it. Some of our benefits include:
What you need is:
- Enrollment for the whole internship period in a Bachelor/Master’s program in Electrical Engineering or similar
- Profound knowledge of designing compact and high efficient power electronics
- Experience in doing laboratory work such as measurements, tests and prototype build-up is essential
- Adept in deploying simulation software such as Spice and Matlab/Simulink
- Passion for developing innovative solutions as part of an interdisciplinary, cross-functional team
- Strong communication skills in English, German will be an asset
