Job Description

As part of your doctoral research, you will work on pioneering technologies for electric drive systems in battery electric vehicles (BEVs). Your focus will be on the investigation, development and testing of innovative power electronics concepts with an emphasis on integrated voltage converter systems. In doing so, you will actively contribute to shaping future drive system architectures and independently develop scientific contributions all the way to functional prototypes.

Job Responsibility

  • Analyzing and evaluating modern power electronics concepts and architectures for electric drives in BEVs
  • Investigating traction voltage levels and power classes of future BEV drive systems from technical, economic and regulatory perspectives
  • Designing, developing and testing a functional demonstrator for an integrated voltage converter within the overall automotive drivetrain
  • Conducting experimental investigations, including setup, testing, and analysis of prototypes, as well as deriving technical optimization potentials
  • Documenting and scientifically evaluating the results as part of the doctoral research

Requirements

  • Good to very good university degree qualifying for doctoral studies in electrical engineering, mechatronics, computer science, or a related discipline
  • Strong knowledge in power electronics, electric drivetrain systems, semiconductor technologies, or energy conversion systems
  • Experience in modeling, simulation, and analysis (e.g., MATLAB/Simulink, PLECS)
  • Initial experience in laboratory work, experimental testing, or prototype development
  • German language level B2 and English language level B1
  • Analytical thinking and a logical, systematic approach to work
  • Strong problem‑solving skills and creativity in tackling technical challenges
  • Ability to work in a team and willingness for interdisciplinary collaboration

What we offer

  • Attractive salary & 30 vacation days (+ 24.12. and 31.12. off)
  • 35-hour week, flexible working hours, remote work
  • Special conditions for the purchase and leasing of vehicles
  • Free seminars on scientific work and interdisciplinary qualifications
  • Participation in the doctoral network for scientific exchange with science representatives and other doctoral candidates within the Volkswagen Group
