Who is Hilti?


If you’re new to the industry, you might not have heard of us. We provide leading-edge tools, technologies, software and services for the global construction sector. We have a proud heritage, built over 75 years, and a worldwide reputation for pioneering products and exceptional service.


With some 28,000 people in more than 120 countries, which we’re looking to expand, we’re a great place for you to show us your worth, step up to new challenges and grow your career.


What does the role involve?


As intern in our department you’ll be part of an interdisciplinary team, working on latest lithium ion battery technology. You’ll work closely with our experts to develop characterization methods for lithium ion cells and batteries, as well as supporting in proving the feasibility of new battery concepts.


Your key responsibilities will be hands-on work in our lab performing electrical measurements on cells, battery packs and systems. You will be involved in further developing the experimental techniques as well as analysing the recorded data.

What do we offer?


We’ll give you the tools you need to excel in your internship, including one-to-one coaching. You’ll enjoy a rare combination of autonomy and camaraderie, as you’ll manage your own project while being part of a friendly team.


You’ll not just be another pair of hands but a fully integrated team member with lots of self-responsibility. From there, we’ll trust you to do whatever it takes to deliver outstanding results. Go the extra mile and we’ll reward you with strategic development discussions and career opportunities.
