FemTech Internship for female students
infrared.city is a venture-backed climate tech startup spun off from the Austrian Institute of Technology (AIT). We make environmental simulations 100x faster and accessible through AI-powered dashboards and insights for built environment decisions. This lets cities, infrastructure operators and technology platforms make climate-informed decisions in seconds instead of days.
The Austrian Research Promotion Agency (FFG) funds this internship through its FemTech programme, _Praktika für Studentinnen_. We’re looking for curious, motivated female students who want to get hands-on experience in climate tech. If you want to see how research, AI and product come together in a fast-moving startup, we’d love to hear from you!
Your Mission
You’ll be part of the team from day one and work on real projects with real impact. Depending on your studies and interests, you will:
* Analyse and validate climate simulations such as wind comfort, urban heat and solar radiation, and turn results into clear findings
* Support AI and data work by preparing datasets, testing models and building analysis workflows with our tools
* Contribute to product and design through user research, testing new features and creating visuals that make complex climate data easy to understand
* Run case studies on real cities, exploring topics like heat hotspots, green infrastructure and pedestrian comfort
* Share your insights with the team and help shape how we research, build and communicate
Join us if you:
* Are curious and eager to learn. You don’t need to know our tools on day one, because we’ll teach you
* Take initiative and enjoy owning your tasks and bringing your own ideas
* Like working in a team, asking questions and sharing what you find
* Communicate clearly and can explain complex topics simply
* Are interested in climate, cities, sustainability or AI
What we offer:
* Real projects in a climate tech startup, not side tasks
* A dedicated mentor and regular feedback
* Hands-on experience with AI-driven climate models used by cities and companies
* A flexible, hybrid setup in Vienna
* A paid internship with an employment contract and a salary of €1,400 gross per month for 28.5 hours per week
**We know no one knows everything, and we’ve all seen job ads that made us feel small. This internship is about learning and growing with us, so please don’t be discouraged if you don’t tick every box.**
Essential requirements (FFG programme criteria):
* Enrolment: You are a female student enrolled at an Austrian university or university of applied sciences (FH) for the full internship
* Field of study: You study a natural science or technical field, for example architecture, urban planning, environmental engineering, computer science, data science, physics, geography/GIS or civil engineering
* Progress: You have completed at least one semester before the internship starts
Role Context:
Company Stage: Venture-backed early-stage startup with proprietary environmental simulation technology
Team: International, distributed team across research, engineering, product and design
Duration: 6 months, 28.5 hours per week
Reporting: You work with a dedicated mentor and alongside the wider team
Location: Vienna, hybrid
