Working Student (m/f/d) Electrical System Design for Subscale Aircraft Models (m/f/d)
(fixed-term contract, starting as soon as possible)
Realize your dream of doing exceptional things and join us on our mission to solve the time and cost dilemma in medical patient transportation. We at ERC are exclusively developing an eVTOL (electric Vertical Take-off and Landing Aircraft) that transports patients three times faster than an ambulance and at one-third of the cost of a helicopter. We work hard to achieve this goal – with passion, a pioneering spirit, and strong partners, our first demonstrator successfully took off in 2023. "We are ready for take-off, are you ready to fly with us?"
