The Impact You'll Make

 

AI is transforming how software is built, tested, and delivered – and you will help shape how this happens at Danfoss Drives. In this role, you will explore how AI can improve real engineering workflows, from requirements to release, in a global environment powering industrial solutions.

 

You won’t just observe – you will experiment, prototype, and influence. Your insights will directly guide engineers and leaders who are ready to adopt AI to work smarter and faster.

 

This is a unique opportunity to turn curiosity into real impact, working hands-on with production systems while building experience that can launch your career in software engineering and AI.

What You’ll Be Doing

 

  • Explore AI across the software lifecycle by evaluating tools like GitHub Copilot, Azure DevOps, Polarion, and Microsoft 365 Copilot in real engineering workflows
  • Identify high-impact opportunities where AI can improve efficiency, quality, and collaboration across requirements, development, testing, and release
  • Build practical proof-of-concepts that demonstrate AI-driven improvements, automation, or new ways of working
  • Translate insights into action by delivering structured recommendations, trade-offs, and a clear roadmap for AI adoption
  • Collaborate with experienced teams of developers, product owners, and managers – bringing fresh perspectives that challenge and improve current practices

What We're Looking For

 

  • You are currently enrolled in an academic study program (at least 2 years completed and 1 more year until end of studies) in Software Engineering, Computer Science, Data Science or similar
  • You have a strong interest in AI/ML and are motivated to apply it in practical, real-world software development
  • You bring solid programming skills in Python, TypeScript, or C/C++, and are comfortable with Git-based workflows
  • You are curious, proactive, and eager to explore new technologies in a hands-on environment
  • You can work independently, structure your ideas clearly, and communicate your findings effectively in English

What You'll Get from Us

 

  1. We promote from within and support your learning with mentoring, training, and access to global opportunities.
  2. You’ll have flexibility, autonomy, and support to do your best work while maintaining a healthy work-life balance. Your well-being matters to us.
  3. We strive to create an inclusive work environment where people of all backgrounds are respected, and valued for who they are.
  4. You’ll receive benefits like 13th salary, annual bonus, paid vacation, pension plans, personal insurance, and more. These vary by country and contract, but they’re worth asking about—we think they’re pretty great.
