Scope of workpart-time
Weekly hours66,67% of standard work hours per week**Responsibilities**:
Duties include academic services in the project named above. Research associates may also pursue independent research and further academic qualifications.

Specific Duties

This project is conducted as part of a national consortium of eight research centres in Germany, funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF).

The project Information Field Theory for Experiments at Large-Scale Research Facilities (ErUM-IFT) establishes knowledge-based signal reconstruction methods for astronomical research facilities. Information field theory is a mathematical formalism in which optimal and adaptive signal reconstruction algorithms can be derived. These algorithms are machine learning methods in which expert knowledge is explicitly used, which in turn often makes training phases unnecessary.

Research associates will conduct cutting-edge research and duties include the development of algorithms, the writing of scientific publications and the presentation at international conferences. They will be embedded in a highly international and interdisciplinary research environment that includes the Department of Physics, DESY, The Centre for Data and Computing in the Natural Sciences (CDCS), and the Cluster of Excellence “Quantum Universe”. The University hosts one of the biggest physics departments in the country and provides state-of-the-art computing infrastructure. Research associates will have access to fund for travel and may participate in teaching at the University.

**Requirements**:
A university degree in a relevant field.

Familiarity with basics of astrophysics and particle physics, ideally in the form of an undergraduate thesis project. Experience in coding and in the basics of machine learning.

We offer
- Reliable remuneration based on wage agreements
- Continuing education opportunities
- University pensions
- Attractive location
- Flexible working hours
- Work-life balance opportunities
- Public transport pass (ProfiTicket) and much more
- Health management
- Educational leave
- 30 days of vacation per annum

As a University of Excellence, Universität Hamburg is one of the strongest research universities in Germany. As a flagship university in the greater Hamburg region, it nurtures innovative, cooperative contacts to partners within and outside academia. It also provides and promotes sustainable education, knowledge, and knowledge exchange locally, nationally, and internationally.

Severely disabled and disabled applicants with the same status will receive preference over equally qualified non-disabled applicants.
