From cloud computing to machine learning: we constantly require more powerful chips that produce highly concentrated heat. Extracting this heat is rapidly becoming a bottleneck for the next generations of computing whilst representing 30% of electricity consumption in data centers. Corintis is a provider of silicon-based microfluidic cooling solutions to enable 10x higher heat extraction from silicon chips versus conventional methods, with a 50-times higher energy efficiency. Corintiss solutions extract heat by flowing liquid through thousands of microscopically small channels, up to 10 times smaller than a human hair. This approach offers major performance and efficiency benefits to existing chips, and is a key enabling technology for future high-performance chips.

Software Development / Internship
Corintis is a collaborative, international team based on the EPFL campus near Lausanne, working to solve next-generation computing challenges. As part of the team, you’ll help design, develop, and test in-house software, maintain and improve existing Python codebases, and engage with open-source tools and communities. We’re looking for candidates studying or recently graduated in Computer Science or a related field, with experience in Python and a statically typed language, solid knowledge of algorithms and Git, and a strong willingness to learn. Open-source contributions are a plus.
Human Ressources / Fulltime
Join us as a People Business Partner, where you'll have the opportunity to architect how performance, trust, and leadership scale. You will solve meaningful problems, support leaders in navigating team decisions, and help to further shape how we operate as a people team, enabling the company to grow. You are aware of what is means to run HR as a product team, ie focusing on outcomes rather than input. This role is perfect for someone with 5+ years of experience in HRBP/PBP roles and as a Head of People, and who’s eager to help the team scale and to leverage automation to amplify the team’s impact.
Engineering / Fulltime
In this role, you will optimize and scale up manufacturing processes in collaboration with suppliers and cross-functional teams, using data analysis and risk assessments to improve efficiency, quality, and reliability. You’ll lead process validation for powder metallurgy and additive manufacturing, support new product introductions, and ensure compliance through robust quality strategies, while mentoring junior team members and driving continuous improvement.
Engineering / Fulltime
We are seeking a Vice President of Engineering to lead multiple engineering functions through our rapid scaling. This role will directly report to the CEO. The goal of this role is to lead, manage, and mentor our engineering team leaders and provide top-level leadership of our day-to-day engineering activities, with a focus on the work done for our large customers. A key part of the role will also be representing the engineering organization externally to our customers.
Engineering / Internship
Seeking a motivated computational engineer specialized in Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and preferably Conjugate Heat Transfer (CHT), who likes scientific code development, can work independently and demonstrate resourcefulness. Proactive candidates with prior experience in CAD manipulation and HPC are preferred. Responsibilities include conducting various 2D/3D simulations and optimizations using in-house and commercial software, as well as performing parametric and sensitivity studies. The scope of this internship is at the frontier between computational engineering and customer projects and includes the development of customer-driven features in our in-house software.

Together with partners, ESA BIC Switzerland is the place for entrepreneurs with a link to space technologies in order to realise their innovative ideas and transfer technologies from space to other areas of the economy. So, that doesn't mean rocket science, but applies to multiple application fields such as navigation and positioning, communications techniques, Earth observation, materials, processes, signals or robotics. So let's see how much space is hidden in your innovative business idea! The ESA Business Incubation Centre Switzerland (ESA BIC Switzerland) is a nationwide initiative that will officially open in Q4 2016 and is managed by ETH Zurich, in collaboration with IFJ, Impact Hub Zurich and AP Swiss.
The Venture Leaders - as members of the Swiss National Startup Team - have a clear-cut goal. They envision themselves as global players and want to take the first step to their global expansion. The Venture Leaders’ startup development program is specifically structured to help them achieve these goals. Each year, the Venture Leaders Mobile journey offers selected entrepreneurs an accelerated learning curve and a solid network through their participation at the Mobile World Congress and 4YFN Conference.
