73055: Electrical engineer, Mechanical engineer or similar (f/m/x) - Simulation-based testing in the field of automated driving

Scientific / postdoctoral posts,Other

The position includes the following tasks:

• conceptual development of generic and scalable simulation architectures for the safety argumentation for automated driving
• transformation of modules of the simulation architectures on test facilities of the institute as well as conceptually on facilities of the institute's partners
• methodical determination of parameter spaces and their variations in the simulation-based test procedure for optimised reduction of test spaces
• leading the running of specific simulations to obtain a quantitative safety statement including assessment of the quality of the statement 
• transfer of modules of the simulation architectures into a consistent test architecture for the institute and coordination of the implementation
• planning and coordination of the application of building blocks of simulation-based testing such as simulation blocks, field data or formally described scenarios on DLR test fields as well as linking to test fields of DLR cooperation partners
• further development of safety verification and homologation architectures for simulation-based testing in cooperation with international partners from projects and standardisation
• technical management of network formation to further strengthen and stabilise the coordination tasks carried out by DLR in the context of BMWK funding initiatives
