Technical apprenticeships

As a qualified electronics engineer for industrial engineering (f/m/div), you make sure the lights stay on. Without energy, modern production is nothing. The practical side of this job includes filing, sawing, and drilling to manufacture mechanical components and to create connections. Naturally, you’ll also learn your way around a circuit diagram, how to assemble and wire electronic devices, and how to inspect them, measure them, and set them up. Your know-how will be sought after wherever modern industrial engineering and installation engineering are in use.

Before you can begin this apprenticeship, you must complete a General Certificate of Secondary Education (GCSE) (mittlere Reife). Do you trust yourself to stay on top of things, even when faced with complicated tasks? Can you work with focus and care? Then welcome!

Apprenticeship contents
Basic training in metal work and electronics, service areas, project contributions, SPS, foundations in semiconductor technology, work within various departments, and much more.

As a qualified electronics technician for devices and systems (f/m/div) you will assemble devices and components, bring them into service, inspect them, and keep them in proper condition. Naturally, you will also contribute to analysis and optimization of manufacturing processes and support developers in fulfilling orders.

Completion of a General Certificate of Secondary Education (GCSE) (mittlere Reife) is ideal for your start at Infineon. Do you trust yourself to stay on top of things, even when faced with complicated tasks? Can you work with attention and precision? Then take the opportunity and submit your application!

In the production mechanics apprenticeship (f/m/div), you will learn everything needed to keep the manufacture and assembly of industrial series products running smoothly. You will gain valuable knowledge about the assembly of components and devices, as well as the inspection, functional setup, error correction, and product-related repairs of both components and complete products. Supervision of completed work and potential post-treatment are also part of the job, as are the identification of tasks based on assembly and maintenance plans, design drawings, and procedural instructions.

What you bring to the table: lower secondary school or a General Certificate of Secondary Education (Hauptschulabschluss oder mittlere Reife), field-tested English language skills, and an enjoyment of working in a team. The ability to work autonomously is also a top priority.

Apprenticeship contents
Assembly of components and devices, technical communication, safeguarding process operations, monitoring material flows, and much more.

During the mechatronics apprenticeship (f/m/div), you will learn everything necessary to keep production running flawlessly: from metal working to electronic engineering, all the way to programming. Along with the planning, assembly, and installation of new systems, your duties also include the startup operations and maintenance of electronic and mechanical systems. You will develop solutions that are right to the point and navigate projects from start to finish.

Requirements for this apprenticeship are a General Certificate of Secondary Education (mittlere Reife), good math and physics skills, as well as field-tested English skills. If you possess a distinctive technical understanding and mechanical abilities, there is nothing standing in your way from becoming a mechatronics technician (f/m/div) at Infineon.

Apprenticeship contents
Manual and machine-based materials processing, electronic engineering, foundations of semiconductor technology, automation technology, PC hard- and software configuration, and much more.

Your production tasks include the planning and organization of process sequences and test series as well as the documentation and evaluation of results. You will not only install facilities and equipment, but also oversee, test, and inspect these manufacturing processes. Quality control and logistics management are also among your shared responsibilities.

We therefore expect from you: a technical knack and an interest in high-tech, a General Certificate of Secondary Education (mittlere Reife), a general matriculation standard or entrance qualification for a university of applied sciences, as well as good English language skills.

Apprenticeship contents
Cleanroom technology and properties, process chemistry, semiconductor and microsystem technology, quality management, and much more.

You will build, program, inspect, and maintain mechanical and electromechanical system components.

Requirements are successful school completion, a good mathematical-physical understanding, and a strong interest in complex tasks. You are at home in English; you love challenges, stand out through your personal responsibility, and enjoy working in a team. Alongside your apprenticeship, you can also achieve a university entrance qualification.

Commercial apprenticeships

In the warehouse clerk apprenticeship (f/m/div), you will get to know all logistics processes: from receiving incoming goods and incoming control, to proper goods storage. With a pallet truck and a forklift, you will maneuver delivered goods through the narrow aisles to their designated storage locations as smoothly as if you’d done it all your life, in order to subsequently prepare our customers’ orders for shipping. You will also learn the fundamentals of information processing so that the use of standard PC programs becomes second nature.

Once you’re completed a General Certificate of Secondary Education (Hauptschulabschluss oder mittlere Reife) you are qualified with your start at Infineon. English is not a foreign language to you, and you are ready to take on responsibility as a team player.

Alongside the traditional office management apprenticeship (f/m/div), this double qualification also includes an IHK Associate’s degree as a certified foreign language correspondence clerk (f/m/div) in English. With this double qualification, we prepare you for the ever-increasing internationalization and globalization. The need for well-educated industrial management assistants with additional, well-established foreign language skills is constantly growing.

In addition to a General Certificate of Secondary Education (mittlere Reife), we expect very good German and English language skills, organizational talent and a joy for learning, data management and text processing.
