## Description

We are seeking a Junior Research Engineer in Computational Engineering as part of the GREET project, funded by Horizon Europe under the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions. You will conduct research in Computational Engineering, focusing on the autonomous generation and optimization of engineering designs through generative AI and computational search techniques.

**Responsibilities:**

- Development of generative AI models for autonomous design space exploration in automotive engineering

- Computational methods for evaluating and optimizing engineering designs against multiple constraints and objectives

- Integration of symbolic and learning-based approaches for rule-based engineering formulation and synthesis

- Application of generative techniques to physical design problems (components, structures, systems in powertrain and vehicle development)

- Collaboration with academic partners on explainability and transparency in generative AI systems

**Profile:**

- Completed education (University or University of Applied Sciences, University of Technology, or comparable) with a focus on Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a closely related discipline, with completion by August 2026 at the latest and eligibility for admission to a doctoral program are required

- Strong foundational knowledge in Large Language Models, AI agents, machine learning, software architecture, or cyber-physical systems

- Experience in LLM/RAG software development with Python and SQL; Rust or comparable systems-level programming skills are an advantage

- Ability to work independently and collaborate effectively in interdisciplinary teams

- Very good knowledge in English

**Benefits:**

- Various working time models, flextime and the possibility of working from home

- Contributing to a safer and more sustainable future of mobility

- Food trucks, snack bar and canteen with freshly cooked daily menus

- Events, e.g. summer festival, Oktoberfest, AVL Christmas parties or after-work events

- Personalized onboarding process including a mentoring system

**Annual Remuneration:**

Due to the Austrian Equal Treatment Act we are obligated to state the annual gross remuneration (full-time) for this position as a basis for negotiation: €53,270.00.
