Physicist, chemist, mathematician or computer scientist (f/m/x)

What To Expect

In a joint project with the Institute of AI Safety and Security, we have started the Helmholtz Young Investigator Group DataMat, where we combine soft matter theory with artificial intelligence. We want to design materials thought impossible before – by turning fundamental insights about new states of matter into real-world applications. We specifically aim for multifunctional microstructures with the help of reliable machine learning methods. To achieve this aim, we closely collaborate with the LMU Munich and Princeton University.

Now, we are looking for you to join us. You will have the opportunity to work together with leading scientists in an emerging field of research. The DLR provides flexible working conditions and a strong research infrastructure for such an interdisciplinary project.

Your tasks

• Develop and apply reliable machine learning methods to predict and optimize material properties.
• Discover, characterize, and utilize novel types of short- and long-range order.
• Publish your results in scientific journals and present them at international conferences.

Your profile

• PhD in physics, mathematics, materials science, or similar.
• Initial experience in at least one of the fields of research of the group, especially machine learning.
• Proficiency in English, both spoken and written.
• Ideally experience in interdisciplinary research.
• Promising scientific track record desired.

We look forward to getting to know you!
