What you need is:
- Enrollment in a Master's program in electronics, physics/mathematics, computer science, or similar for the entire internship period
- Familiarity with one or more of the following fields: control theory (Kalman filtering, Simulink), computer vision (photogrammetry), image processing, or statistics
- Good programming skills in a high-level language (Python, Matlab, or C#)
- Effective communication skills in English
- Proactive and self-reliant personality, with strong willingness to explore and learn new topics
Why should you apply?
You will be at the link of academic research and product development. Your theoretical foundations from university will be highly appreciated and applied to product development.
Working in our international team exposes you to real world challenges encountered on job sites and your solutions can make construction better.
