The Role

We're looking for a driven, analytical intern to join our logistics team. You'll take on real end-to-end project ownership tied to measurable OKRs — not ad-hoc tasks. If you're passionate about process innovation, data, and transport strategy, this role is for you.

What you'll do

• Further develop our logistics strategy and ensure its alignment with company goals
• Create management presentations to communicate logistics performance and strategic initiatives
• Optimise internal logistics processes through data-based analyses and derivation of improvement measures
• Develop tools and dashboards for operational control and for the selection of efficient warehousing and transport options
• Work closely with other departments, handle documentation and reporting, and support the selection and onboarding of new transport service providers

What we're looking for

• Currently enrolled in Economics, Business, Mechanical, or Electrical Engineering
• C1 level proficiency in both German and English (written and spoken)
• AI-first mindset — we are an AI-first company and expect all team members to actively use AI tools in their day-to-day work. Prior hands-on experience with AI tools (e.g. ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Cursor, or similar) is a must
• Structured, analytical mindset with a process-oriented approach to problem-solving
• Comfortable with data management, dashboard building, and working independently
• Proactive ownership mentality — you enjoy driving a project from start to finish
