# Company
thyssenkrupp rothe erde is the world’s leading manufacturer of large-diameter bearings and one of the largest producers of seamless rolled rings, which are used in a wide range of industries. Every month, more than 6,000 employees process 15,000 tons of steel into customized solutions. In close collaboration with our customers, we develop products that are unique in terms of design, material quality, and performance. Join us in keeping the world turning everywhere.
The Technical Calculation department at the Lippstadt site develops highly specialized calculation methods and software, which are used by the design engineers of our globally positioned business unit for the design of large-diameter bearings. To strengthen this expertise and further expand it in the future, we are looking for a competent and committed working student who will actively contribute to the development of our design processes. Would you like to become part of our interdisciplinary, motivated team?

# Your responsibilities
As a working student (m/f/d), you will support our Technical Calculation department at the earliest possible start date, working 14 hours per week (preferably on two fixed weekdays). In this role, you can expect the following tasks in particular:
- You will familiarize yourself with the existing multibody simulation (MBS) environment used to model wind turbine drivetrain dynamics.
- You will support the creation and refinement of simulation models for drivetrain components and load cases relevant to wind turbine drivetrain operation.
- You will run parametric and variation studies to analyse dynamic behaviour, load interactions, and kinematic relationships within the turbine system.
- You will contribute actively to technical discussions, brainstorming sessions, and concept development related to the topic.
- You will help validate simulation results against analytical calculations or measurement data.
- You will support the documentation of simulation processes, model descriptions, and results.
- You will prepare visual material (plots, animations, and presentations) for internal training sessions, discussions, and project reports, and assist with additional administrative tasks.

# Your profile
- You are enrolled in a Bachelor’s or Master’s program in mechanical engineering, renewable energy engineering, physics, or a comparable technical field.
- You are looking for a working student position that can transition into or directly support your thesis in multibody dynamics or wind turbine drivetrain.
- You have a strong interest in simulation topics such as multibody system dynamics, technical mechanics, or wind turbine technology.
- Ideally, you have initial experience with simulation or modelling tools (e.g. MATLAB/Simulink, LSDYNA, Abaqus), or you are motivated to learn them quickly.
- Ideally, you have basic programming knowledge (preferably MATLAB) and enjoy applying it to engineering problems.
- You work independently, analytically, and in a structured manner.
- You are motivated to present your results clearly, both in written form and in discussions with the team.
- Businessfluent German and very good English language skills complete your profile.

# Your benefits
- Flexible working hours through a flexitime system
- Attractive remuneration including special payments
- Long-term collaboration intended (ideally at least 1 year)
- Responsible tasks to support your individual professional development
- Highest standards for occupational safety and health
- Subsidised canteen and free water dispensers
- Excellent public transport connections
