Job description

Your role

The scope of duties of the position includes the cooperation in a research project, in particular a European project with an international consortium composed of academic and industrial partners:

- Mathematical modelling of proton exchange membrane fuel cells for the decarbonisation of heavy-duty vehicles
- Model implementation and numerical simulation
- Preparation of parameter studies, model validation, analysis and evaluation of measurement data
- Development of graphical user interfaces for dissemination of models to industry

**Profile**:
You have a degree in physics, mathematics or engineering. A good understanding of physics is required to model material properties and transport of mass, momentum, charge, and heat. Experience in the numerical solution of differential equations is needed. Previous knowledge of electrochemistry is a highly-valued skill. Programming skills in a common (scientific) programming language for numerical simulation are advantageous. In addition, you are highly self-motivated, proactive, flexible and enjoy a result-oriented way of working. Professional fluency in English is required, knowledge of German is not indispensable, but may prove useful.
