At the ETH Student Project House (SPH), we inspire and empower students to cultivate a maker-innovator mindset. We believe that by exploring their own ideas and developing personal projects, students gain valuable hands-on experience and learn essential skills for their future. That’s why we’ve created an ecosystem where Bachelor’s, Master’s, and Doctoral students are encouraged to ideate, build prototypes, and continuously test and refine their creations.
Our interdisciplinary team of 30 supports students with the tools, knowledge, and guidance they need to pursue their passions. Our well-equipped Makerspace provides access to a wide range of tools and equipment for prototyping. To help projects grow beyond the idea stage, we also offer co-working, ideation, and event spaces, as well as personalized coaching.
Many of our offerings are entirely digital, so we’re developing and running a variety of digital solutions to support this space. This includes integrations of different software services, deployments in the cloud, or on our own servers.
We’re now looking for a new team member to join our Software Development & IT team. Read on to find out if this could be the right fit for you!
