The Opportunity

NetZero Diagnostic Sensor Production: The application of sensors for diagnostics is a relatively new field, with many startups now part of the Roche family. Our focus includes sensors for blood gas and metabolite diagnostics in Rotkreuz, Switzerland; Lumira in Scotland; and various others in the US, such as sequencing by expansion or multiplex pathogen testing utilizing ePlex sensor technology from Genmark. Printed circuit boards (PCBs) of such sensors have a significant environmental impact. This role involves quantifying that impact and developing a global roadmap towards Net-Zero Production of Diagnostic Sensors towards 2045, aligning with Roche’s Science-Based Targets initiative (SBTi) commitment

Responsibilities:

• Quantify the environmental impact of sensor manufacturing globally through top-down and bottom-up approaches.

• Top-Down: Measure the CO2 footprint of diagnostic sensor production based on existing spent-based Scope 3 emission data

• Bottom-Up: Analyze existing Life Cycle Assessments (LCA) from diagnostic sensor production and create more LCAs for diagnostic sensors

• Contribute to the development of a roadmap towards Net-Zero by 2045, considering eco-friendly design of electronics, and the impacts of manufacturing and supply chains.

• Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams, including operations, engineering, procurement, and sustainability departments - and in specific with another intern working on the sustainability of a specific sensor

Who You Are

You are enrolled or have completed your Master’s studies at a university, preferably in the field of electronics, physics, chemistry, material sciences or similar within the last 12 months and are interested in applying your knowledge in a modern working environment as part of an internship of at least 3 months and getting to know the pharmaceutical industry.

Furthermore you are

• Professional proficiency in English; German is a plus.

• Experience in manufacturing and supply chains of Printed Circuit Boards (PCB) and Integrated Circuits (IC).

• Expertise in creating Life Cycle Assessments (LCAs) with SimaPro or similar software.

• Strong analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills.

• Ability to collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams.

• Fluency in German and English (written and spoken).

If you meet most but not all qualifications, we still encourage you to apply.

Technical details:

The start date for the internship is between 1st and 16th of July 2025
