Internship Digital Mars Supply Excellence Engineer

Are you ready to make a tangible impact on the factory of the future? At our manufacturing site, we continuously strive for operational excellence and sustainable performance through the MSE (Manufacturing Supply Excellence) framework. A core foundation for our success is the Education & Training (E&T) pillar: ensuring that technical knowledge, skills, and standard operating procedures are seamlessly preserved, transferred, and elevated across our operators and technicians.

The industrial environment is becoming increasingly digital, creating an urgent demand for modern, intuitive learning tools. As an Intern in MSE Digitalization, you will investigate how we can bring our technical E&T processes to the next digital maturity level and actively implement practical, sustainable solutions.

What Will You Do?

During this internship, you will bridge the gap between academic theory, digital tools, and hands-on factory floor reality. Your core activities and deliverables will include:

Current State Assessment: Map and analyze how technical training, onboarding, standard work procedures, and competence development are currently managed and tracked within the technical department.

Stakeholder Needs Analysis: Engage directly with maintenance technicians, reliability engineers, shift leaders, and operators to identify key pain points and practical requirements for digital learning on the shop floor.

Digital Concept Development: Explore, benchmark, and design suitable digital platforms, tools, or applications (e.g., microlearning tools, interactive video guides, Power Apps, QR-coded machine instructions, or LMS integration) aligned with MSE standards.

Pilot & Implementation: Set up and run a live pilot project on a designated production line or technical focus area. Test the solution directly with end-users, gather actionable feedback, and iterate.

Standardization & Governance: Develop a rollout and governance framework to ensure the digital training tools become a sustainable, embedded part of daily manufacturing routines.
