What's the role?
Our department is dedicated to improving the productivity of the development teams at Hilti.
Joining us means gaining exposure to a variety of roles and stakeholders, from developers to team leaders and project managers, giving you the opportunity to understand how different parts of the organization work together in developing new Hilti products.
The start date is flexible to the students’ availability, duration for at least 6 months. (preferably 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 development, and making a real difference every day.
What does the role involve?
Take ownership of a real project
You’ll have the opportunity to take responsibility for a concrete project, either by supporting the rollout of new engineering methods or by helping to define one from scratch.
Support the adoption of engineering methodologies
Help our development teams improve how they work by supporting the implementation of structured methods like FMEA, Fault Tree Analysis, and others. You’ll contribute to making complex engineering challenges more manageable and processes more efficient.
Contribute to process management initiatives
Get involved in refining how we define, document, and standardize our internal processes. This includes helping different teams align their workflows and ensuring consistency across departments, giving you a broad view of how the company operates.
Gain hands-on experience with software tools
Work directly with modern software tools used for project planning, development methods, and process modeling. You’ll support users, help document use cases, and even take partial ownership of one of the tools, an excellent way to build practical skills for e.g. a later product owner role.
CAREER - We have interns exploring all the different aspects of working at Hilti HQ where student talents enjoy the opportunity of a lifetime by working alongside experts in the field and contributing to Hilti’s next innovation.
