Who You Are:
- A student in their final years of study at a Croatian University (Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computing - FER, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Naval Architecture - FSB, or similar technical/biomedical curriculum).
- Eligible to work 20 hours per week via a valid Student Contract (Studentski Centar).
- Highly curious, technically-minded, and fluent in both Croatian and English.
What We Offer:
- Structured, paid student engagement that respects your exam periods.
- Direct 1-on-1 mentorship and official global industry certifications.
