Introduction

Nuventura is a Berlin-based climate-tech company developing a new generation of medium-voltage switchgear that is both highly innovative and environmentally sustainable. Our patented gas-insulated switchgear replaces SF₆ — one of the world’s most harmful greenhouse gases — with clean, dry air while maintaining the same reliability and performance as traditional systems.

Our product portfolio is expanding rapidly through new development projects, industrial partnerships, and global scaling. As an interdisciplinary and engineering-driven company, we are committed to accelerating the transition toward sustainable electrical infrastructure and enabling utilities and manufacturers worldwide to adopt SF₆-free technology.

To support this growth, we are looking for a Working Student (f/m/x) Engineering to join our development teams.

Tasks

As a Working Student (f/m/x) Engineering, you will actively support the development of our next-generation prototype nu2. This role gives you the chance to apply your early engineering skills in a highly practical environment and directly contribute to a key R&D milestone.

• Support the assembly of prototype components

  Assist in building the new R&D prototype nu2 by assembling sub-assemblies and mechanical parts under guidance from experienced engineers.

• Help document the assembly process

  Contribute to creating clear and simple work instructions based on the steps you carry out, helping ensure processes can be repeated reliably.

• Prepare mechanical drawings (incl. basic GD&T)

  Create or update mechanical detailed drawings with support from the engineering team, applying your initial knowledge of GD&T.

• Record issues during assembly

  Note down challenges or questions that arise during assembly work and share them with the team for troubleshooting and improvement. Provide improvement suggestions

  Bring in your observations and fresh perspective to suggest small, practical improvements for better assembly workflows or design usability.

Requirements

• You are currently enrolled as a student inMechanical Engineering, Industrial Engineering, or a related technical field and are eager to apply your coursework in real projects.
• You use your initial design experience to create or adapt technical drawings and approach design tasks with accuracy and structured thinking.
• You feel comfortable working hands-on with mechanical assemblies and enjoy learning through practical build activities.
• You communicate clearly in English, and you are able to understand or communicate technical information in German.
• You actively seek guidance when needed and approach new tasks with curiosity and a willingness to learn.
• You share issues or observations openly and collaborate with engineers to improve assembly workflows or design aspects.
