Working Student - Design, Fabrication & Visualisation (40%)

VAULTED AG is a Swiss deep-tech scale-up born out of research at ETH Zurich and the EMPA innovation ecosystem. We combine engineering, computational design, digital fabrication, and advanced manufacturing to deliver lightweight, low-carbon structural floor systems.

We are entering an exciting growth phase and are looking for a motivated student to support our Design & Engineering Team. This ongoing, flexible 40% role is ideal for someone who wants hands-on experience alongside their studies.

Tasks

• Produce technical drawings and diagrams for ongoing projects
• Create high-quality renderings to communicate design ideas internally and to clients
• Work primarily with Rhino and Grasshopper
• Support physical prototyping and fabrication when needed, including preparing files for 3D printing, running prints, and basic post-processing
• Collaborate closely with the Design & Engineering Team on innovative building-system projects

Requirements

• Currently enrolled in architecture, design, engineering, or a related degree programme
• Strong working knowledge of Rhino and Grasshopper
• Experience with rendering software such as V-Ray, Enscape, KeyShot, or similar is a plus
• Interest in, or basic experience with, 3D printing and physical prototyping is a plus
• Precise, detail-oriented, and able to work independently after briefing
• Strong communication skills
• Fluent in English; German is a plus

Benefits

• Work on a pioneering structural floor system that can substantially reduce structural mass, steel use, and embodied carbon
• Join an international, interdisciplinary, and collaborative team
• Gain practical experience in computational design, digital fabrication, and advanced manufacturing
• Flexible scheduling around your studies
• Ongoing position, approximately two days per week
• On-site collaboration with the team in the Zurich/Dübendorf area

We're looking forward to your application!
