Job Description
Req ID:  5344
Place of work:  Stuttgart
Starting date:  asap
Career level:  Student research project and final thesis
Type of employment:  Part time
Duration of contract:  6 months

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 12,000 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!

The Institute of Vehicle Concepts (FK) of the German Aerospace Centre (DLR) is internationally recognized for the design of future road and rail vehicles that enable climate and environmentally friendly mobility while being affordable and user-friendly at the same time.

We research and demonstrate the required key technologies and maintain close cooperation with other scientific institutions as well as industrial and political bodies.

 

What to expect

We are looking for you in our team to shape the mobility of the future. Road vehicles have evolved over recent decades from a primarily mechanical product into an increasingly connected system involving heterogeneous stakeholders as well as multidisciplinary requirements and constraints. The earlier such heterogeneity and interdisciplinarity are taken into account in the development process of road vehicles, the lower the development costs and the shorter the development time. This can be achieved by making use of Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE). For this reason, the goal of this master’s thesis is to explore and apply MBSE approaches in the early development phase of road vehicles.


Your tasks

  • Research on using MBSE approaches in the early development phase of road vehicles
  • Building SysML models in Python
  • Linking SysML models with digital tools


Your profile

  • Ongoing academic studies in the field of mechatronics, mechanical engineering, automotive engineering, aerospace engineering, or a comparable technical degree program 
  • Good German or English skills, both written and spoken 
  • Very good knowledge of MBSE 
  • Very good knowledge of the modeling language SysML (V2) 
  • Very good Python skills 
  • Personal responsibility and commitment 
  • Independent and structured way of working

 

We offer

DLR stands for diversity, appreciation and equality for all people. We promote independent work and the individual development of our employees both personally and professionally. To this end, we offer numerous training and development opportunities. Equal opportunities are of particular importance to us, which is why we want to increase the proportion of women in science and management in particular. Applicants with severe disabilities will be given preference if they are qualified.

We look forward to getting to know you!
