Duales Studium - Automation Engineer

Description Do you want to understand how robots, sensors, and automated systems work together? At Amazon, you will apply your knowledge directly in practice. You will work on systems that move products through one of the world's most complex logistics networks. From day one, you will take on responsibility, work side-by-side with experienced Automation Engineers, and see the direct impact of your work. As part of Amazon, a universe of opportunities opens up to you: access to state-of-the-art technology, diverse career paths, and an environment where your ideas count and you are encouraged and challenged early on. During your dual studies, you will attend university to earn a Bachelor of Engineering (B.Eng.) with a specialization in Automation Technology. You will receive practical basic training in a training center, and at Amazon, you will apply your knowledge directly, alongside experienced Automation Engineers who will support and challenge you. In doing so, you will develop knowledge in electronics and electrical engineering, information technology, programming, as well as automation and control technology. At the same time, you will dive into future topics such as robotics, smart systems, and IoT. Start: 01.08.2027 Location: Rheinberg University: HS Düsseldorf Training Center: Siemens AG Düsseldorf Do you enjoy tinkering, getting hands-on, and want to take on responsibility early? Then you've come to the right place.

Key job responsibilities

• Hardware Engineering and configuration of systems
• Commissioning of complex infrastructure systems

A day in the life

Your training combines theory and practice from the very beginning. You complete your theoretical training at the university and in a training center, while you acquire practical knowledge directly at Amazon at your location. A typical day? Together with experienced Automation Engineers, you analyze a malfunction in a conveyor or sorting system, replace components, and get the system running again. On another day, you configure a control system and commission new technology. And then there are the days when you work on a project involving robotics, sensor technology, or IoT. No day is like the other – sometimes you're at the system, sometimes you're troubleshooting on site, sometimes you're analyzing and optimizing systems on the computer. You work with experienced Automation Engineers from the beginning, learn from them, and gradually take on more responsibility. You try things out and learn skills you didn't even know existed before.
