Enter the fascinating world of the German Aerospace Center (Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt e. V.; DLR) and help shape the future through research and innovation! We offer an exciting and inspiring working environment driven by the expertise and curiosity of our 11,000 employees from 100 nations and our unique infrastructure. Together, we develop sustainable technologies and thus contribute to finding solutions to global challenges. Would you like to join us in addressing this major future challenge? Then this is your place!

At the Institute for the Protection of Maritime Infrastructures in Bremerhaven, we research and develop innovative solutions to strengthen the resilience of maritime infrastructures and make them adaptable, safe and sustainable. In close cooperation with partners from research, industry and other maritime security stakeholders, we combine technological innovation with practical expertise and offer you the opportunity to work on pioneering projects.

 

What to expect

Are you ready to immerse yourself in a world where your passion for cutting-edge technology meets the urgent need to protect our maritime world? The Institute for the Protection of Maritime Infrastructure is on a mission and we are looking for brilliant minds like you to join us!


Become part of a team dedicated to developing technologies to protect the maritime domain. We work hard to develop new concepts that keep everything from harbours to offshore wind farms secure. As a member of our Maritime Security Technologies team, you can explore innovative solutions that matter to everyone.


How would you like to work with state-of-the-art underwater sensors and acoustic systems? Here you will design algorithms that process acoustic signals, simulate underwater sound channels for systems such as active sonars and carry out innovative work for the future of maritime security with exciting experimental test setups. 


Results from this work will also be integrated into a maritime situational awareness system, ensuring important results are easily available to end users – a major step forward in maritime security.
Perhaps you are also thinking about performing PhD studies? At DLR we also support you on your academic path!

 

 

Your tasks

  • development of algorithms for signal processing and evaluation of data from acoustic systems (e.g. active and passive sonars)
  • extension and improvement of an existing simulation environment for sonar signal processing
