Onsite Research Software Engineer – Mobile Sensor Systems
Posted 50 minutes ago
About the role
- Research Software Engineer involved in scientific research and software development for mobile sensor systems and computer vision projects. Working with advanced technologies and interdisciplinary teams at Fraunhofer.
Responsibilities
- As a Research Software Engineer (all genders), you will work at the intersection of scientific research and professional software development.
- You will design, develop and evaluate research software for image-based localization of mobile sensor platforms.
- The focus of the methods is on computer vision and machine learning — in particular localization using reference data and onboard image sensors.
- Particularly relevant are learning-based methods using modern frameworks (e.g., PyTorch, JAX, or TensorFlow), image-based 3D reconstruction techniques, and modern rendering libraries.
- Development and operation of software components in containerized environments (e.g., Docker) for reproducible experiments and easy portability across target platforms.
- Integration of the developed methods into real sensor platforms and demonstrators.
- Ensuring code quality, reproducibility, and sustainable usability.
- Collaboration with scientific colleagues and external project partners.
- Contributing to integration into complete systems.
- Conducting demonstrations and field trials.
Requirements
- A completed university degree (Master's) in Computer Science or a comparable field.
- Strong programming skills, particularly in Python and/or C++.
- Fundamental knowledge or practical experience in image processing or computer vision (for example in image-based methods for localization, registration, or 3D reconstruction).
- Ideally, knowledge or experience with containerization (e.g., Docker), robotics frameworks (e.g., ROS), edge platforms (e.g., NVIDIA Jetson), as well as autopilots and real-time controllers (e.g., Pixhawk hardware, PX4 autopilot).
- Very good German and good English language skills.
Benefits
- A varied role at the interface between science and practice — with direct relevance to future technologies and socially relevant applications.
- Freedom to develop and the opportunity to actively contribute your own ideas and projects.
- Excellent technical equipment and optimal working conditions.
- Motivated colleagues who inspire each other through their interdisciplinary and international composition.
- Attractive conditions for work-life balance (e.g., flexible working hours within a flextime model, individual home office arrangements).
- Individual career paths through training and development opportunities (e.g., the Fraunhofer TALENTA support and development program for female scientists and female leaders).
- Free parking and a high-performance charging infrastructure for electric vehicles.
- A cafeteria and nearby shopping facilities.
- Very good public transport connections and a subsidy for the Deutschlandticket.
