**Institution**:
Institute for Automation of Complex Power Systems
**Our Profile**:
In times of climate crisis and increasing global tensions, a fundamental transformation of energy systems is necessary to ensure the security, environmental compatibility, and independence of the energy supply. The power grid plays a key role in this transformation by replacing fossil power plants and integrating renewable based generations, additional consumers, from industrial processes to heat pumps and electromobility. The most important prerequisites for safe and efficient operation of modern power system are innovative technologies, but above all the integration of modern ICT into the automation infrastructure to coordinate
millions of decentralized generation plants and consumers. This revolution requires new concepts and approaches that do not come from a traditional research environment.
The goal of the Institute for Automation of Complex Power Systems (ACS) is to implement a multidisciplinary research approach capable of capturing and leveraging the latest advances in ICT to help solve the most advanced problems in grid dynamics and automation.
Join us and create a climate-friendly and secure future energy system together with many national and international partners from industry and research
**Your Profile**:
- Interest in scientific work, with the goal of earning a doctoral degree
- Excitement about new technologies
- Innovative and interdisciplinary thinking, independent and structured way of working
- Fluent German and English
- Social competence, ability to communicate and work in a team
Desirable are knowledge/interests in at least one of the following domains:
- Design / operation of distributed systems
- Cloud platforms and/or microservice architectures
- IoT protocols, network protocols or energy grid automation
- Network architectures or virtualisation techniques
- Interest in the co-simulation of energy networks Interest in information technology and energy technology issues and motivation to mediate between the two disciplines
**Your Duties and Responsibilities**:
As a member of our international research team, you will be responsible - together with partners inside and outside RWTH - for project work in international and national research projects. You will contribute your expertise in your specialist field and at the same time are open to interdisciplinary exchange.
We are currently looking to strengthen the team in the following - partly quite different - areas of research:
- Modern control approaches for electrical grids, for example on harmonic stability or virtual oscillators.
- Dynamic state estimation of electrical distribution grids, together with aspects of the optimal placement of sensors and research on suitable sensors.
- Architectures for scalable and flexible data platforms to support grid automation and the integration of renewable energies (see open source development SOGNO)
- Research on data complexity, interoperability, ontologies for electrical grid data and digital twins.
- Development of a real-time capable simulation solver for electrical grids (see open source development DPsim).
- Extension of a toolset for local and geographically distributed real-time co-simulations (see open source development VILLASframework)
The various tasks are aimed at power engineers, computer scientists and automation engineers as well as data scientists and simulation engineers. What all tasks have in common is the necessary and enriching way of thinking outside the box - we combine solutions to the challenges of energy transition with modern approaches from information and communication technology.
In the majority of projects, the project work leads to validations in the real electrical field at pilot partners of the joint projects. Our real-time simulation laboratory is also available on site as an important test environment for our scientists.
Which of the mentioned tasks are you interested in?
**What We Offer**:
The position is to be filled at the earliest possible date and offered for a fixed term of 2 years.
An extension of minimum 1 year is intended. There is the option to extend the position for additional 3 years.
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 with the possibility of a part-time contract upon request.
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.
**About us**:
RWTH is a certified family-friendly University. We support our employees in maintaining a good work-life balance with a wide range of health, advising, and prevention services, for example university sports. Employees who are covered by collective bargaining agreements and civil ser
