Working Student or Internship – People (HR), Events, or Public Funding (m/f/d)

YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES:
At Blackwave, we develop next-generation ultra-lightweight, fiber-reinforced high-performance composite structures with a special focus on Composite Overwrapped Pressure Vessels (COPVs). Our technologies are engineered for one purpose: to push the boundaries of what’s possible in aerospace.What we build isn’t just advanced — it’s designed for missions beyond Earth.

We operate at the intersection of materials science, automated composite manufacturing, and robotics, creating highly reliable COPV solutions for space applications. With every innovation, we contribute to the future of launch vehicles, satellite systems, and in-orbit technologies.

The mission is critical, but it takes more than just engineering to reach the stars. As our technological universe expands, so does the engine that powers our business operations. We are looking for motivated working students to join our non-tech teams and provide the operational backbone for our journey into orbit.
