PhD Student On-Board Charger Control (f/m/d)

Description du poste:

Work environment

We bring the future into series production. Our department for "Development of Electric Drives, Power Electronics & Transmissions", which is part of Volkswagen Group Components at the Kassel, Wolfsburg, and Gaimersheim sites, plays a leading role in this endeavor. It is responsible for the development of all future power electronics for electric drives and on-board-chargers. We are shaping the mobile future by consistently transforming our innovations into cost-effective products and continuously improving existing technologies. Become part of our team to shape the future of mobility together!

Possible Tasks within this Role

* Designing, simulating and testing of on-board chargers with digital control and analoge circuits
* Conducting an in depth study on a specific area within power converter system power electronics
* Creating and develpoing of basic software and hardware prototypes
* Utilizing design tools and implementing simulation models
* Collaborating directly with system engineers of VW to design and prototype key functions of next generation On-Board Chargers

The final doctoral topic is defined together with the professor. The prerequisite for the cooperation is the confirmation of supervision as well as a confirmed delimitation of topics by the professor of a university or research institution entitled to confer a doctorate.

Qualification requirements

* Good to very good university degree qualifying for doctoral studies in computer science, mechatronics, electrical engineering, or a comparable field
* Knowledge and / or highly motivated in gaining knowledge in Automotive On-Board Charger development
* Experienced in Embedded software programming using Microcontrollers (e.g. C2000, STM, Aurix)
* Capability in schematic and layout design
* Hands-on experience in hardware testing and debugging is preferred
* System level simulations such as using Matlab/Simulink/PLECs is preferred
* German or English language level B2

The following documents must be submitted with your application

* Curriculum Vitae
* Curent transcript of records / Certificate of Master's degree

Keywords

Model-Based Design, Digital control methods, Digital optimization methods, Real-time simulation, OBC-control concepts, Rapid prototyping, Embedded software, Matrix converter

What we offer

* Attractive salary & 30 vacation days (+ 24.12. and 31.12. off)

* 35-hour week, flexible working hours, remote work

* Special conditions for the purchase and leasing of vehicles

* Free seminars on scientific work and interdisciplinary qualifications

* Participation in the doctoral network for scientific exchange with science representatives and other doctoral candidates within the Volkswagen Group
