Our Profile:

Your Profile:

You hold a university degree (master's or equivalent) in automation engineering, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, computer science, physics, or a similar field of study.

You have a strong fundamental knowledge of control engineering and are eager to further develop your expertise in this field and contribute actively to scientific projects, as well as to teach and pass on your knowledge to students.

You are communicative and a team player, speak and write English fluently, and preferably also have some knowledge of German (if not, you are willing to learn German).

Your Duties and Responsibilities:

In the context of the doctoral position, you will be researching with international and interdisciplinary project partners on how mobile robotics can contribute to improving the quality of life for older and/or physically restricted individuals.

The gyro backpack can play a crucial role in restoring mobility. This intelligent, backpack-like robot helps the wearer maintain balance. The principle is based on the gyroscopic effect, utilizing inertia forces of rotating bodies to resist changes in direction. The research is supported by the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation with mínimalist robot technologies to enhance mobility.

The research builds on a series of previous projects in the fields of robot-assisted rehabilitation and mobility. For this reason, you can build on a broad knowledge and solid hardware foundation.

To develop and evaluate the developed technologies and control algorithms, you will collaborate with national and international partners, especially from RWTH and the University Hospital Aachen, TU Delft, and Erasmus Medical Center in Rotterdam.

What We Offer:

The position is to be filled at the earliest possible date and offered for a fixed term of 2 years initially.

An extension of the contract for additional 3 years is planned.

The fixed-term employment is possible as it constitutes one of the fixed-term options of the Wissenschaftszeitvertragsgesetz (German Act on Fixed-term Scientific Contracts).

This is a full-time position.
The salary is based on the German public service salary scale (TV-L).
The position corresponds to a pay grade of EG 13 TV-L.
