- A scientific degree (Master, Ph.D., or equivalent) in electrical engineering, computer science, engineering sciences, media technologies, or a related field
- Expertise in machine learning and deep neural networks using generative AI (GANs, DDPMs)
- Strong background in digital signal processing, particularly regarding speech and audio processing/analysis
- Good programming skills in Python and C/C++, as well as good knowledge of deep learning frameworks (e.g., PyTorch)
- Fluency in English to collaborate with an international team
What you can expect
- An **exciting job **at a global market leader in a **highly innovative key industry**:
- You get the opportunity to build your **reputation and visibility** both in science and in industry.
- Projects with a **strong practical component** motivate our employees to **drive innovation**.
- Here you find **dedicated colleagues** with **broad professional expertise** in a personal and collegial working atmosphere which offers freedom for your ideas and **room for creativity**.

- **Top of the line infrastructure at your work place**: With our state-of-the-art technologies, we develop solutions to meet the challenges of today and tomorrow.
- Talent development already starts in school: Our programs inspire young people at an early age to pursue sciences and foster creative junior scientists.
- Your goals and interests are important to us: We offer ongoing **professional **and **personal seminars, coaching, **and **language classes**.
- We offer equal opportunities: Our **female scientists**, for example, benefit from the **»Fraunhofer TALENTA« career program**.
- **We offer complementary parking spaces, charging stations for electric cars **and **covered bicycle parking**, and showers at the institute.
- We subsidize your **Deutschland-Ticket (Jobticket)** ‒ bus stops are located directly in front of the institute.
- **In-house health management **including **sports courses, running groups, and relaxation seminars.**
The weekly working time is 39 hours. The position is initially limited to 2 years, with the aim for subsequent employment. The position can also be filled part-time, but as close to full-time as possible.
