Master Thesis in Concept Design of High Power Dense & Highly Integrated Robot eDrives – with a Focus on Alternative Torque Sensing

JobsCloseBy Editorial Insights

Bosch is offering a six month master thesis in Concept Design of High Power Dense & Highly Integrated Robot eDrives with a focus on Alternative Torque Sensing, based in Bühl. You will break down torque sensing requirements at system and subsystem levels, conduct market analyses, develop and refine a concept with suitable torque sensors, and create a clear decision matrix. In the PoC phase you will design one or two favored concepts, realistically estimate development effort and costs, and prepare persuasive proposals for the next steps. Ideal candidates are Master’s students in Mechanical, Mechatronics, Electrical, Industrial Engineering or Robotics with strong grades, MATLAB/Simulink, CAD, and basic requirements engineering knowledge, plus enthusiasm for robotics; fluency in English and very good German required.

Company Description

At Bosch, we shape the future by inventing high-quality technologies and services that spark enthusiasm and enrich people’s lives. Our promise to our associates is rock-solid: we grow together, we enjoy our work, and we inspire each other. Join in and feel the difference.

The Robert Bosch GmbH is looking forward to your application!

Job Description

• As part of your thesis, you will break down the requirements for torque sensing in robotic drives at both the system and subsystem level in a clear and structured manner. 
• To identify technological trends and potential opportunities, you will conduct comprehensive market analyses and benchmarking of current systems. 
• You will develop and refine a concept along with suitable torque sensors and, based on this, create a clear decision matrix. 
• During the functional design phase, you will design the one or two preferred concept solutions for a Proof of Concept (PoC). 
• In addition, you will realistically estimate the development effort and product costs to create a sound basis for further decisions. 
• Finally, you will prepare convincing decision proposals for the subsequent course of action. 

Qualifications

• Education: Master studies in the field of Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, Electrical Engineering, Industrial Engineering, Robotics, or comparable, with good grades 
• Experience and Knowledge: basic knowledge of Requirements-Engineering and the product development process; strong understanding of MATLAB/Simulink and model‑based development; foundational skills in working with 3D CAD tools and engineering design; initial experience with mobile and humanoid robots as well as electric drives; solid mechatronic competence 
• Personality and Working Practice: you excel at working independently, collaborating effectively in teams, and generating creative solutions 
• Work Routine: we offer you the possibility to work remotely part of the time 
• Enthusiasm: for robotics and sensor technologies 
• Languages: fluent in English and very good in German
