Oberhausen, Deutschland Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft Vollzeit

As one of 76 institutes of the Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft we show how to not only master crises, but grow from them. Pushing boundaries. Always trying something new. Not just thinking, but thinking ahead. We turn research into the future.

We want an earth that is worth living on. With our research in the divisions of climate-neutral energy systems, resource-efficient processes and circular products, we make concrete contributions to achieving the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the United Nations. Our employees conduct research in the fields of energy, environment, safety, health, communication and mobility.

The combination of different (energy) systems is becoming more complex due to integrated energy. At the same time optimization is becoming more relevant as a method for designing and planning the operation of systems with regard to sustainability. The required models are thus potentially becoming larger and more complex, which makes efficient solution strategies necessary. This is where your master thesis begins.

**What you will do**
- Research on and evaluation of distributed optimization solution strategies
- Induction in the Python-based modeling framework »oemof-solph«
- Implementation of a solution strategy of distributed optimization of energy system models from oemof-solph

**What you bring to the table**
- Studies in the field of mathematics, computer science or engineering with a focus on energy technology
- First programming experience, ideally with Python
- Interest and pleasure in (mixed integer) modeling and optimization, previous experience with oemof-solph is advantageous
- Independent way of working

**What you can expect**
- As part of a dynamic team, you actively drive sustainable solutions for a resource-efficient future
- Opportunity to combine your knowledge from your studies with practical experience at the interface between business and science and to integrate your own ideas
- New Work, diversity and cooperative interaction are important components of our strategic orientation
- Flexible working hours - we know that your studies come first
- Flexible work locations that fit your studies - mobile work and on-site work are combined as needed
- Intense support for the preparation of your final thesis
- Health and mindfulness programs for good balance
- You can find even more attractive benefits here**:Fraunhofer UMSICHT as employer**

With its focus on developing key technologies that are vital for the future and enabling the commercial utilization of this work by business and industry, Fraunhofer plays a central role in the innovation process. As a pioneer and catalyst for groundbreaking developments and scientific excellence, Fraunhofer helps shape society now and in the future.
