Intern in Aemstelredamme, Nederland

Établissement recruteur

We are building something the world has never seen before: premium wood, grown without cutting down a single tree. Our technology enables growing strong hardwood directly from cells. What normally takes decades, we produce in days — precise, strong, and without deforestation.

We are an early-stage biotechnology company on an audacious mission: becoming the world’s largest supplier of wood and making deforestation economically obsolete. If we stopped cutting down all trees today, we would reduce our global carbon emissions by up to 10%. Our rainforests are critical ecosystems in our fight against climate change. Yet we are losing more and more of it at an alarming rate. At New Dawn, you’ll help build next-gen wood that will transform entire industries, while quietly preserving the world’s forests.

This is our Team:

It sounds beautiful. And it is. But behind this idea, you will find no romance — just disciplined execution. The day-to-day of changing the world we live in is complex, technical, and very hard work. That is why New Dawn is propelled forward by a team of tenacious and extremely dedicated individuals. We all come here to do the best work of our lives. We are a small team by design, where everyone carries real responsibility. This means we do not operate like a family, but rather like a high-performance athletics team geared towards winning the championship, together.

This is our Culture:

Our culture is simple: high standards, low ego. Every day we show up with intention, and aim to be more effective than the day before. This takes continuous reflection and collaboration as a team. We reflect, evolve, and repeat.

If you are looking to solve hard challenges with the brightest people in the field, and work on solutions that have the potential to change the world we live in, you will find your peers here.

You will fit right in if you:

- Are energized by collaborating with a team of crazy intelligent & driven individuals

- Are excited about solving some of the toughest problems of our time

- Your brain reasons from first-principles, and bombards you with creative solutions

- Want to actively build & shape a sustainable future

This is not for you if:

- You are looking for clarity in structure, processes and role boundaries in a company that is still being built

- You are looking to maximize comfort over growth

Description

This is an extremely hands-on role for someone who wants to see how a frontier biotech company is built, from up close. You will be embedded directly into our technical team and work on your own concrete project that directly contributes to the company’s progress. You will be working directly with, and learning from top-tier engineers with expertise in biotech and engineering. Your work will have visible impact on New Dawn’s technical progress.

We encourage students to follow their intuition, and come up with project suggestions. Depending on your background, interests and the company’s priorities, you may:

Run and optimize biological experiments

Support bioprocess development and scale-up activities

Design, build, or iterate on mechanical or automated systems

Work with sensors, actuators, control systems, or lab automation

Prototype products, fixtures, or experimental setups

We offer hands-on, execution-focused internships with meaningful ownership over real technical work, an opportunity to learn from a top-tier team. You will gain unique insight into the inner workings of an fast-growing biotech start-up.

Profil

- Prior hands-on experience in the relevant technical domain like biotechnology, bioprocessing, material science, automation engineering, mechanical engineering, physics, or product design (technical / physical products)

- Curiosity and an eagerness to learn new techniques and approaches

- Ability to work independently once context is given

- Comfort working in a fast-moving, unstructured environment

- Enthusiasm to work on-site and engage directly with hardware, experiments, or systems

- Internship commitment of ≥6 months
