Working Student Operations & Project Management

What we’re looking for

We’re looking for a hands-on student in Munich to join our operations team and be our go-to person on site. Your main focus will be our mobile training units. The team can’t always be there in person, so you’ll be the one who gets things done locally. One day that means picking up a cordless drill, the next it means comparing supplier offers. Your tasks will change often, and you’ll work across several teams.

The day-to-day

• Mobile unit operations: Carry out repairs, run acceptance checks, fit out the units and help develop them further
• Logistics & supply: Organize resupply, plan deliveries, and help develop and look after our transport and packaging solutions
• Sourcing: Research and contact manufacturers and service providers, request and compare offers, and prepare decisions
• Documentation: Write documentation and work instructions on your own
• Tools: Build dashboards, tracking tools and other solutions with us, using AI where it helps
• On-site support: Lend a hand at trade fairs and on-site events
• Projects & ideas: Help bring structure to spontaneous projects and new ideas, and support other operations topics across teams

You should apply if you

• Are enrolled at a university in Munich or nearby
• Work in a structured, reliable and highly independent way
• Have a hands-on, pragmatic mindset: you’re happy to do physical work and also enjoy tackling conceptual problems
• Have basic practical skills (a cordless drill shouldn’t be a stranger to you)
• Communicate clearly and enjoy working with different teams
• Speak German at C1 level or higher and English at B2 level or higher
• Are confident using AI tools and want to build your own

Nice to haves

• Vocational or technical training, or other hands-on experience
• First experience in operations, logistics or project management is a plus
• You are interested in drones, defence and the startup world

What we offer

• Real impact & ownership: Shape high-tech defence systems and take responsibility from day one
• Mission-driven environment: Work on technologies that matter for European security and sovereignty
• Competitive package: Competitive salary, EGYM Wellpass, corporate benefits
• Deep tech environment: Get hands-on experience with cutting-edge drone technology and real operational use cases
• Grow fast: Steep learning curve for juniors, strategic influence and leadership opportunities for seniors
• Startup mindset meets defence innovation: flat hierarchies, fast decisions, and space for your ideas.
• Flexibility: Flexible hours, remote options, and relocation support
• Strong team: International, driven colleagues and a culture built on exchange, trust, and shared success
