Lab Intern

Your mission

Support the research and development of Ucaneo's groundbreaking Direct Air Capture (DAC) technology by assisting in lab experiments focused on electrodialysis processes. You’ll gain hands-on experience working alongside our team of engineers and scientists to optimize our carbon capture technology.

We are looking for a motivated Intern to join our Berlin lab team and assist with experiments, data collection, and analysis related to the electrodialysis process in our DAC system. You will play a key role in ensuring the smooth execution of lab activities and contribute to Ucaneo’s mission of combating climate change.

Key Responsibilities:

• Assist in setting up and running electrodialysis experiments.
• Monitor, collect, and analyze data from ongoing lab tests.
• Help prepare and maintain laboratory equipment and materials.
• Collaborate with engineers and scientists to optimize experimental procedures.
• Document results and provide support for reporting on lab findings.
• Ensure adherence to safety standards and lab protocols.

Your profile

Skills and Experience:

• Currently enrolled in a Bachelor's or Master's program in Chemical Engineering, Process Engineering, Environmental Science, or a related field.
• Basic knowledge of electrochemical processes or electrodialysis systems is a plus.
• Hands-on lab experience (e.g., university courses or internships).
• Strong analytical skills and attention to detail.
• Ability to work independently and in a team setting. Bonus Skills:
• Prior lab experience working with electrodialysis or related systems.
• Familiarity with lab safety protocols and equipment handling.

Benefits

Perks

• Flexible working hours
• Regular team events
• Laptop and your individual work set-up

At Ucaneo we develop a pioneering Direct Air Capture technology mimicking the human lung to remove carbon dioxide from the air. Climate change is a global problem and needs to be tackled at scale. Therefore, we set the goal to capture 0.5 GT of CO2 from the air by 2035 - roughly the same weight as all humans on earth combined!

After the first promising results in the lab we continue to focus on our technology. If you want to join an ambitious team with lots of freedom and growth check out our career page and LinkedIn jobs. We are looking for talents in the area of chemical engineering, electrochemistry and mechanical engineering and cannot wait to meet you!
