Working Student/Assistant Functional Safety & Cyber Security

Safety is not by chance – it is created by people who look closely, think structurally, and take responsibility. Functional Safety and Cyber Security are no longer marginal topics, but the core of modern technical systems. If you want to understand during your studies how safety-critical products are really created – not just in theory, but in daily practice – then you are exactly right with us. At TWK in Wedel, you will work directly on the topics that are currently most important to the industry. No coffee brewing, no filing chaos – but real involvement in projects that matter.

At TWK, we have been developing and producing customized sensors for plant and mechanical engineering in the growing market of measurement and automation technology for over 60 years. Functional safety for people and machines is our claim – and this cannot be achieved with half-hearted solutions or endless coordination loops.

Do you want to not just watch, but shape? Then pack your curiosity and come to Wedel. We will show you how standards, analyses, and requirements become real safety – and you will show us what you are capable of.
