Internship in Assembly, Integration and Testing (f/m/d) starting in November/December

yuri is a European space startup founded in 2019, headquartered in Meckenbeuren in SouthernGermany with an R&D office in Luxembourg. Our mission is toadvance biotechnology by utilizing the unique environment of space. Our team of 15 space nerds has launched11 ISS payloads to date and our customers include space agencies likeNASA, ESA, DLR or LSA, the pharma giantGlaxoSmithKline or research institutes like UCLA,UTS Sydney or the Charité Berlin. With the unique experience of launching biology into space, we are currently transforming into a biotech company that uses the space environment to develop own products and therapies. For this ambitious plan we brought on board a number of world-class investors and business angels from Silicon Valley, New York, Boston, London, Berlin, Munich and Vienna.
