Research & Community Outreach Intern (m/f/d)
Munich
Part-time (Minijob)
Wer wir sind
Die Rolle
We're building technology for the visually impaired community – and we need someone from that community to build it with us.
You'll be the bridge between habric and the visually impaired community worldwide. You'll help us understand what actually matters, connect us with organizations and influencers, and make sure everything we build makes sense for real people.
This role has two main parts:
Community & Network Building (70%)
- Reach out to NGOs, blind organizations, and advocacy groups globally
- Build relationships and document what different communities actually need
- Connect us with key influencers and community leaders in the accessibility space
- Help us build a network of testers who want to shape the future of assistive tech
Product Testing & Advisory (30%)
- Test our prototypes and give us honest feedback
- Be our go-to advisor for "does this actually make sense for someone who's visually impaired?"
- Help us understand needs we might miss as sighted developers
The setup: We're offering a mini-job (8-10h/week, ~€520/month) with potential for long-term collaboration as we grow.
You can work fully remote or join us at our office in Garching every couple of weeks – whatever works best for you.
Sie sollten sich bewerben, wenn Sie
- have lived experience with visual impairment and understand the challenges and needs of this community
- are fluent in English (our working language)
- have strong communication skills and feel confident on video calls
- are comfortable with email, online collaboration tools, and digital communication
- want to actively shape technology that impacts your community
- care about building something that makes a real difference
- are proactive, curious, and not afraid to tell us when we're getting it wrong
Schön zu haben
- have experience in community work or advocacy for the visually impaired
- are tech-savvy and enjoy testing new products and giving detailed feedback
- speak German (helpful for reaching German-speaking organizations)
- have connections to blind/low-vision organizations or communities
- understand the assistive technology landscape
Was wir bieten
- Paid opportunity to shape technology for your community from the ground up
- Real impact – your insights will directly influence product decisions
- Flexibility – work remotely or visit our office in Garching when it suits you
- Direct access to founders – your voice matters and will be heard
- A young, ambitious team that values your expertise and lived experience
- Long-term potential – possibility to grow into a larger role as we scale
