🔥 About DeWarmte

More than 40% of the Heat demand of an average Dutch household can be supplied in a circular manner. Circular heating results in an average CO2 reduction of 1 ton each year, per household. With the current Dutch housing stock, circular heating has a national CO2 reduction potential of 8 Mtons! (4 coal-fired power plants) DeWarmte aims to reduce CO2 emissions caused by the built environment. We do this by recuperating heat from the sewage in the underfloor service space of the house. We believe that every technique with a significant CO2 reduction potential should be investigated. Not only by theory and experiments in the lab but also by assessing a viable business model and realizing practical implementation. This is why we develop the HeatCycle, the HeatCycle is placed within the boundaries of the home to recuperate heat from the sewage.

⚙️ The Challenge

As Intern R&D you will work on further developing the HeatCycle. Multiple experiments will be conducted in our lab. You will learn how to scope, execute and report experimental research projects. You will also analyze your results and use them to recommend improvements for the HeatCycle. Improvements will be immediately integrated into the new product and installed in a pilot setup.

🤩 You are

• Motivated & independent. You are able to define the scope of work per assignment and are able to stay motivated when working alone. However, we are always available to help, and you will be an important asset to the team of DeWarmte.
• Socially strong. DeWarmte consists out of a small team that is dedicated to making heating more sustainable. All our team members work closely together, communication is key to work together successfully.
• Technically educated & structured. Most of your assignments will be the experimental development of various components of the HeatCycle. You are able to draft up and execute a well-structured project plan leading to a well-substantiated recommendation for improvement.
• In the possession or in pursuit of a (technical) bachelor.
• Experienced with python (is a plus).

🎁 What we offer

• Dynamic working environment
• You’ll get the opportunity to create your own projects
• An internship compensation of 250-300 euros per month
• ‘Work hard, play hard’ mentality. We love to work hard, but celebrate as well
