When students become staff members
Andrey completed his Master’s degree in automation and has been working at Weiss Robotics as a development engineer for gripping systems since May last year. Originally, he had only planned to write his dissertation at the company. Then he signed on as a working student and eventually stayed on full-time. “I was fascinated by the complexity of gripper technology,” he enthuses.
“What I like about Weiss Robotics is that you’re allowed to try things out. Whilst working on my thesis, I designed my own electric gripper, which I was then even allowed to manufacture myself. Big companies don’t offer you that!” Andrey also greatly appreciates the family-like atmosphere at the company.
“It’s lovely to have helpful colleagues and a boss who makes time for you. I’m sure I’ll be able to learn a great deal here in the future and make my own contribution to the company’s success!”
