Open position at nanoleq AG:


Engineering Internship


Starting at 50%, flexible duration


About nanoleq


nanoleq is a Spin-Off from ETH Zürich developing a soft wire technology which will change the way e-textiles
are produced.
The smart textile industry is booming. ECG shirts, muscle activity tracking and electrostimulation suits for
sports, breathing and temperature monitoring garments for health care and work-safety textiles are
popping up on the market. However, the textile and electronics industries have not fully merged yet.
Electric wires are rigid, fragile, not easy to insert into garments and they corrode under washing. Motivated
by this challenge, and having worked with stretchable conductive polymers for years, we at nanoleq
developed a new stretchable wiring solution for textiles which combines industry-standard lamination
tapes with ultraconductive elastomers. Our solution will enable e-textiles to be comfortable, durable and
easy to produce, and it will kick-start the large-scale production of e-textiles.


About this position


We currently offer an internship for a motivated engineering student (FH or ETH). Depending on your
interest, you can help us with the following tasks:



  • Build a test setup to expose our wires to harsh stretching, washing and lamination conditions

  • Benchmark different composite material formulations

  • Build a printing process for ultraconductive elastomers

  • Develop and produce textile demonstrators to showcase our technology

  • Create stretchable electroluminescent wires for textiles together with us


What we offer



  • Great responsibility from day one. Grow with us, professionally and personally.

  • Inspiring work environment in Zürich with Swiss life standards

  • Access to ETH labs

  • Exciting daily work: shape the future of smart textiles!

  • Friendly and open team spirit

  • High-speed decision processes

  • Modern culture based on self-responsibility and trust, holidays above average

  • Respectful environment, team activities, yearly company retreat
