Job Description
Bsc/Msc: Industrial Design - Design practical solutions that help operators see what's coming next

Are you an Industrial Product Design student looking for a graduation assignment? Do you like working on something practical that will actually be used on the production floor? We are looking for you!

Your assignment
In our production environment, modules are built in one hall and packed in another. The physical flow is clear, but operators in the packing area don’t have a clear view of what is coming next.


The goal is simple:
How do we make sure an operator knows something is coming, for example in 10 minutes, so they can already start preparing?
You will work on designing concepts that make this information visible and easy to understand. Not just on paper, but in a way that actually works in the hall.


Think about things like:
•    showing what is coming and when
•    using visual signals such as screens, lights or physical elements
•    making sure an operator understands it in one glance
•    keeping it simple and practical


You will spend time on the production floor, talk to operators and understand how they work. Based on that, you will design concepts that really fit their way of working. The focus is not only on analysis, but on creating solutions that can be tested or implemented.

 


Your profile
•    You are currently studying Industrial Product Design or something similar (HBO or WO level)
•    You like turning a problem into something tangible and usable
•    You are interested in user-centered design and visual communication
•    You are not afraid to go onto the production floor and talk to operators
•    You are looking for a graduation assignment as part of your study
•    You are available for around 4–6 months

 

What’s in it for you?
•    A challenging assignment with skilled coaching
•    Internship/ Graduation compensation of €500,- per month
•    Travel cost compensation if you don’t have an ‘OV-weekcard’
•    The possibility to network with professionals inside and outside your field of expertise, thanks to our diversity of disciplines which you will work with
