Research Associate (M/F/d) in the field of Reliability Investigations for Sustainable Grid-Connected Power Electronics:

Institute for Electrical Machines, Traction and Drives

With more than 16,000 students and 3,800 employees, the
Technische Universität Braunschweig is one of Germany ́s leading institutes of technology.

It stands for strategic and performance-oriented thinking and acting, relevant research, committed teaching, and the successful transfer of knowledge and technologies to the economy and society.

We consistently advocate for family friendliness and equal opportunities.

Our research focuses are mobility, engineering for health, metrology, and city of the future. Strong engineering and natural sciences are our core disciplines. These are closely interconnected with economics, social and educational sciences and humanities.

Our campus is located in the midst of one of the most research-intensive regions in Europe.

We work successfully together with over 20 research institutions in our neighborhood as we do with our international partner universities.

Starting from 01. July 2024, the Institute for Electrical Machines, Traction and Drives is looking for a

Research Associate (M/F/d)

in the field of Reliability Investigations

for Sustainable Grid-Connected Power Electronics
**(EG 13 TV-L, full
- or part-time)**The position is to be filled on a fixed-term basis for two years.

The aim is to continue employment beyond this period.

About the new project:

The transformation of electrical energy supply and mobility towards greater sustainability requires more and more power electronics.

Many tests under different environmental conditions and uses cases are required to ensure the reliability and lifetime of these new power electronics solutions.

The IMAB institute is working in several projects on reliability issues, life time modeling and life time estimation for power electronics components and systems.

In this project, we are working on the lifetime of so-called Netprosumer systems.

These are systems that enable energy flows between the grid and stationary and mobile batteries as well as regenerative feeders such as PV and wind.

The project tasks include theoretical and experimental research work for reliability and lifetime assurance of power electronics components like semiconductors, capacitors and inductors.

Your tasks

Electrical and thermal characterization of power electronic components
Planning, execution and evaluation of longterm stress tests
Development of measurement technologies for the characterization
Lifetime modeling and lifetime evaluation.

Your Qualifications

You have a degree (Master's or equivalent) in Electrical Engineering or Physics
You have very good knowledge of the German and English language
You are flexible, can perform under pressure and work well in a team
Experience in at least one of the areas mentioned is a prerequisite for employment:
Design of power electronics components or systems,
Characterization of at least one kind of power electronics component or a system,
Electrical measurement technologies,
Reliability evaluation, lifetime modeling or lifetime evaluation.

We offer

Work on exciting futureoriented research topics in an inspiring work environment as part of the university community
A vibrant campus life in an international atmosphere with lots of intercultural offers and international cooperations
Pay in accordance with the collective agreement TV-L (a special payment at the end of the year as well as a supplementary benefit in the form of a company pension, comparable to a company pension in the private sector) including 30 days' vacation per year
Flexible working and parttime options and a familyfriendly university culture, awarded the "Familyfriendly university" audit since 200
Special continuing education programs for young scientists, a postdoc program, as well as other offerings from the Central Personnel Development Department and sports activities.
