XR Script Writing & Voice-over Design for Next-Gen Training

At imec’s FAB Training Centre, we prepare the next generation of cleanroom operators through a unique blend of theory, hands-on practice in the cleanroom, and immersive e-learning. To strengthen this program, we are adding XR training modules that bring procedures and decision-making to life.

We are looking for a motivated bachelor student to support this innovation through XR script writing and voice-over design.
Your role will be to bridge the gap between experts, trainees, and XR developers:

• You will first follow the reallife training yourself to experience the workflows directly.
• You will then design scripts that go beyond step-by-step instructions, focusing on understanding the “why”, developing human skills, and training both mind and hands.
• Scripts should use repetition with progression, so learners not only repeat tasks faster but also keep their eye for detail.
• You will collect insights through observations, interviews, photos, and video, and translate them into clear, structured scenarios.
• Finally, you will design voice-over guidance that makes training natural, motivating, and effective.

This internship combines technical writing, storytelling, and learning design within the cutting edge of semiconductor training.

Skillset we are looking for 

• Interest in XR/VR/AR and digital learning
• Affinity with technical writing, storytelling, or instructional design
• Curiosity to explore complex technical processes and make them understandable
• Strong communication and interviewing skills
• Analytical mindset: structuring procedures into clear, repeatable flows
• Creativity: designing scripts that combine physical actions, decision-making, and teamwork
• Basic multimedia skills (photo, video, audio editing) are a plus
• English is the main working language; Dutch is an asset

What you will gain

• First-hand experience in a world-class cleanroom training environment
• The opportunity to co-create immersive learning scenarios with real impact
• A portfolio piece that blends theory, practice, and XR design
• Cross-disciplinary collaboration with trainers, engineers, and XR specialists
