CAREER IN MICROTECHNOLOGY RESEARCH – BIG OPPORTUNITIES WITH SMALL STRUCTURES
CHANGE STARTS WITH US.
Do you want to change the world through science? Then the Fraunhofer Institute for Electronic Microsystems and Solid State Technologies EMFT is the perfect place to start your career

With around 190 highly qualified employees at our locations in Munich, Oberpfaffenhofen and Regensburg, we combine many years of experience with extensive expertise in microelectronics and microsystems technology. Our wide range of technologies spans from advanced semiconductor processes and MEMS technologies to innovative 3D integration and flexible electronics.

These nano and microtechnologies form the foundation of our diverse fields of expertise, which include sensor technology, circuit design, system solutions with AI, analysis and testing, as well as micropumps.

Through the close collaboration of our experts, not only groundbreaking innovations arise, but also synergies that enable Fraunhofer EMFT to effectively tackle the complex challenges of our time.

Would you like to be part of an innovative start-up that is revolutionizing the future of care? At SoreAlert, we are developing a sensor patch that uses modern technology and artificial intelligence to take decubitus prevention to a whole new level. Our goal: to relieve the burden on nurses, protect patients and improve quality of life in the long term.

We offer you the opportunity to write your thesis (bachelor's or master's) in a highly motivated team – and to have a direct influence on the practical integration of our technology into everyday care.

What you will do

• Development and elaboration of specifications for the practical integration of medical wearables (e.g. our sensor patch) into everyday care.
• Analysis of existing care processes and identification of adjustments that contribute to optimal use
• Conducting usability studies: testing and evaluating acceptance and user-friendliness in care facilities
• Collaboration with nursing staff, nursing scientists and our interdisciplinary team to optimally adapt the technology to the needs of users
• Documentation and preparation of results.

What you bring to the table

• You are studying healthcare management, healtcare science or a similar degree program.
• You are interested in innovative technologies and their application in the nursing sector.
• You have analytical skills and the ability to present complex interrelationships in an understandable way.
• You enjoy working and interacting with a dynamic and interdisciplinary team.
• Ideally, you have experience in nursing practice or knowledge of nursing processes.

What you can expect

• Insight into an innovative medical technology start-up: Work at the interface between technology and nursing science.
• Mentoring and support: Close collaboration with our experienced team from nursing science, medical technology and product development.
• Flexibility: Opportunity to organize your tasks flexibly and work independently.
• Scientific excellence: Close scientific supervision by experts from OTH Regensburg.
• Impact: Your research will help to bring about lasting change in the care sector and help millions of patients worldwide.

We value and promote the diversity of our employees' skills and therefore welcome all applications - regardless of age, gender, nationality, ethnic and social origin, religion, ideology, disability, sexual orientation and identity. Severely disabled persons are given preference in the event of equal suitability.

With its focus on developing key technologies that are vital for the future and enabling the commercial utilization of this work by business and industry, Fraunhofer plays a central role in the innovation process. As a pioneer and catalyst for groundbreaking developments and scientific excellence, Fraunhofer helps shape society now and in the future.
