Internship Vehicle Science Motorsport

Our Team ...is focused on vehicle dynamics and performance for both race cars and our fastest road cars. Our main focus is the development of simulation models, embedded control systems, and optimization tools (e.g. for tires and suspension, strategy, and data analysis). Our in-house Driver-in-the-Loop simulators help us gain deep insights into our products, enabling us to create exceptional cars and achieve successes in racing. What to expect? Your main tasks are... Assistance in technical development and support in the deployment of our race- and road cars and our driver-in-the-loop simulators Support in the preparation and follow-up of test- and race events Maintenance and further development of vehicle simulation models and methods, for instance Optimal Control lap simulations and other development tools Evaluation and data analysis of measurement data originating from test benches, driver-in-the-loop simulators, and racetrack driving Application of advanced algorithms and methods from the fields of data science or control engineering Software development: assistance in the development of (partially cloud-based) tools for simulation and analysis Software development: the development, implementation and tuning of embedded vehicle dynamics control functions such as active aerodynamics systems, powertrain control systems and brake control systems Assistance during operation of driver-in-the-loop simulator sessions Start: March & SeptemberDuration: 6 months What we offer... Freedom to bring in your own creative ideas Digital learning and work tools Mobile learning and flexible working hours by arrangement An active internship community  What sets you apart? An immatriculation for mechanical engineering, vehicle technology, computer science, mechatronics, electrical engineering, mathematics or a comparable degree program (at least in your 3rd semester or gap year between your bachelor's and master's degree) Programming experience, ideally MATLAB/Simulink, Python and Git Experience in modeling physical systems desirable Knowledge of vehicle dynamics and experience with data analysis would be advantageous Experience in motorsport would be a plus, for example through a Formula Student racing team Team and communication skills, flexibility Independent, structured, thorough, and analytical way of working Enthusiasm for Motorsports Very good English skills (min.
