Project Management Intern – Grant Administration (m/f/d)

**WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR** --------------------------- We're looking for a motivated Project Management Intern (ideally 6 months, mandatory internship) to join our Robotics team in Schönaich (close to Stuttgart), with a flexible start date. If you're structured, reliable, and curious about how a hardware and software robotics company manages complex multi-party projects — including challenging humanoid robotics customers and publicly funded R\&D programmes — this internship gives you hands-on experience that is genuinely rare in industry. **HERE'S WHERE YOU MAKE AN IMPACT** ----------------------------------- * Maintain project schedules and milestone tracking across multiple simultaneous customer and R\&D projects — the structural work that keeps complex parallel workstreams from drifting out of sync * Support regular progress reporting for customer projects, turning internal status into clear, reliable communication that builds confidence externally * Assist with grant administration and compliance documentation — the careful, detail-oriented work that keeps a publicly funded project in good standing with its funders * Coordinate design review and milestone sign-off processes with internal teams and external partners, making sure the right people have the right information before decisions are made * Support consortium documentation and coordination with research institute partners, prepare monthly Gantt/PM tool exports for both customer and grant reporting **WHO YOU ARE** --------------- * Enrolled BSc/MSc student in Industrial Engineering, Engineering Management, or a technical engineering degree with a genuine interest in project management * Structured, organised, and reliable — in a multi-project environment, deadline management isn't a skill on a CV, it's the foundation * Fluent written German is essential: grant administration in a German-funded programme requires precision, formality, and zero ambiguity in the language * Working proficiency in English is equally required — customer project communication happens in English, and clarity matters just as much there as it does in the grant documentation * Proficient in MS Excel or Google Sheets; experience with Wrike, Odoo, or similar PM tools is a plus and will shorten your ramp-up considerably * Technical curiosity is genuinely valued here — you don't need to know ROS2, but being interested in what engineers are actually building makes you meaningfully more effective in this role **WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU** ------------------------ * Flexible working hours when life takes unexpected turns * Company support for gym memberships through Wellpass * Birthday vouchers * Drinks and coffee (free of charge, of course) * Snacks and fruit for all employees, as well as breakfast every Monday * Regular global team-building events such as boot camps, skiing, and summer BBQs * An international team with long-term prospects * Highly competent colleagues who are experts in their field and happy to support you in your learning and growth * Modern office space * Our company's WG (upon availability)
