Job Description

We are looking for a motivated and ambitious student (d/f/m) to join us for a master thesis in the area of Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA)-based digital control systems. The focus of this work is the further development of an existing implementation of a control loop on an FPGA, extending it with adaptive strategies that enable different control behaviors depending on operational conditions. A second core task is the design of an interface between the FPGA and real-world applications, complemented by the implementation of a graphical user interface (GUI) for system monitoring. You will become part of a dynamic team of engineers and scientists working on pre-development activities for future space applications, contributing to the advancement of next-generation precision optical instruments.

Job Responsibility

  • Implement VHDL and C code within the Xilinx FPGA/VIVADO environment
  • Further develop and optimize the existing FPGA-based control system, including the implementation of adaptive control strategies for different operational conditions and the design of suitable interface electronics (analogue and digital)
  • Perform data analysis, simulations, and performance evaluations of the closed-loop system
  • Set up a graphical user interface (GUI) to visualize and monitor the system’s real-time performance
  • Document development steps and results in a structured and reproducible manner

Requirements

  • Enrollment in a Master’s program (or equivalent) in Electrical Engineering, Communications Engineering, Computer Science, Physics, or a related field
  • Solid background in digital signal processing and/or control theory
  • Proven practical experience in FPGA development with VHDL/Verilog (preferably using Xilinx/VIVADO)
  • Programming skills in C/C++, MATLAB, Python or similar environments
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities, combined with creativity for innovative solutions
  • Ability to work both independently and collaboratively in a team-oriented environment
  • Good communication skills, written and spoken, in English (German is a plus)

What we offer

  • Attractive salary and work-life balance with an 35-hour week (flexitime)
  • International environment with the opportunity to network globally
  • Work with modern/diversified technologies
  • Close contact with the interfaces and part of our weekly team meetings
  • Opportunity to participate in the Generation Airbus Community to expand your own network
