• Automation & Coding: You write scripts (e.g. in Python) to automate processes and support prototype operation.
• System Testing: You define and execute parameter tuning, calibrations, and exploratory testing to optimize system performance.
• Data Documentation & Analysis: Document test plans and results, analyze findings, and contribute to design decisions and process improvements.
• System‑Level Understanding: Develop a deep understanding of how complex automated systems function and interact across fluidics, mechanics, and software layers.

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Medical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, Mechatronics Systems Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related interdisciplinary field.
• Hands‑on experience working with fluids and gases in a research laboratory or prototype environment, including basic (micro)fluidics, pneumatic systems, and safe handling of liquids and chemicals.
• Programming experience (e.g. Python); PLC experience is considered an advantage.
• Basic mechanical CAD experience is considered an advantage.
• Strong troubleshooting skills across mechanical, fluidic, and automation domains.
• Structured working style with strong attention to detail and a proactive, hands‑on mindset.
