About the Summer Internship

We are seeking a motivated MSc student with a background in robotics, automation, or a related field to integrate a robot arm into our experimental setups. This internship is an exciting opportunity to work on programming, automation, and user-friendly interfaces that will enhance lab efficiency and usability.

Key Responsibilities

• Program and control a robotic arm for automation tasks in an optical lab environment. Develop automation workflows to streamline lab operations.
• Create clear and well-structured documentation for future use.
• Design a GUI or other user-friendly interface so non-technical users can operate the system with basic commands.
• Test and optimize robotic movement and precision in handling optical components.

Requirements

• Currently pursuing an MSc in Robotics, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Automation, or a related field.
• Experience with robot arm programming (e.g., ROS, Python, or manufacturer-specific languages).
• Knowledge of automation and control systems.
• Ability to write clear and concise documentation.
• Experience with GUI development (e.g., PyQt, Tkinter, web-based interfaces).
• Strong problem-solving skills and an interest in hands-on experimental work.

What We Offer

• Hands-on experience with cutting-edge automation in an optical lab.
• Opportunity to work on a real-world integration project with meaningful impact.
• Collaboration with engineers and scientists in a high-tech environment.
• Dynamic and easy-going start-up work environment with flat hierarchies.
• Flexible working hours and strong team spirit.
• Nice office facilities in our HQ located in Lyngby north of Copenhagen.
• Possibility of extending the contract to part-time during the semester to accommodate studies.

If you're passionate about robotics, automation, and real-world applications, we’d love to hear from you!

We will evaluate applications as they are received, and we will be happy to receive your application as soon as possible and no later than 1 July 2025.

Flexible Start date: July 2025 or similar
