Aqvita is developing next-generation mineralisation technologies for purified, reverse osmosis (RO), and desalinated water. Through its patented MixFusion™ platform, Aqvita enables precise, real-time remineralisation of water with essential minerals such as magnesium and calcium, inspired by nature’s mineral balance while reducing dependence on packaged water and conventional supplements. This 3-month internship focuses on the development of intelligent mineral dosing systems combining water chemistry, sensor measurements, adaptive control algorithms, and AI-driven modelling. The project aims to improve the precision, stability, and predictability of mineral infusion into RO permeate under dynamic operating conditions. The intern will contribute directly to the development of smart mineralisation technologies by combining experimental work with software development and data-driven modelling. A strong emphasis will be placed on adaptive dosing algorithms, sensor integration, data analysis, and AI-based prediction models for mineral dosing optimisation. This internship is particularly suited for engineering or computer science students, or recent graduates, who are interested in applying programming and AI skills to real-world physical systems and sustainability challenges. Key Outcomes By the end of the internship, the candidate will have: Gained hands-on experience in applied water-tech R&D within a patented mineralisation platform. Worked on adaptive dosing systems for RO/desalinated water remineralisation. Developed and tested data-driven and AI-assisted dosing models. Strengthened programming and analytical skills through real experimental datasets and sensor-driven systems. Acquired experience in calibration, reproducibility analysis, and predictive modelling of physical processes. Contributed to the development of next-generation smart dosing technologies combining chemistry, embedded systems, and AI. Collaborated with engineers, software developers, and external R&D partners in a multidisciplinary innovation environment. Activities Conduct laboratory and pilot-scale experiments on mineral dosing into RO permeate and purified water.

A dynamic startup environment where your work can rapidly contribute to real products and innovation. Aqvita was founded by a team of engineers aiming to mimic, accelerate, and fine-tune Nature’s wondrous mineralization process. Years were spent trying to crack the code. The result? Mineral-rich and infused water in your dispenser or filter at home. Your favorite bottled water comes from an underground water source deep within the Alps mountains, or is tap water purified and mineralized. With patent-pending, science-backed technology, we tackle individual drinking preferences. Whether you’re an athlete that needs magnesium-fortified water, or a senior looking for a calcium-rich, refreshing drink, Aqvita ensures the choice is yours. Instant, specialized, natural, innovative. Our mineral blend generator is a game-changer for anyone serious about hydration or quality food production.
