About this job:

Stuttgart Wind Energy (SWE) is part of the Institute of Aircraft Design at the University of Stuttgart. SWE’s research group “Simulation, Optimization and Control” focuses on tackling design, optimization, and control challenges in onshore and offshore wind farms. SWE has extensive experience in floating offshore wind through participation in several EU and national research projects such as LIFES50+, COREWIND, VAMOS, and FARID. Tools like SLOW and FloatingWAYS have been developed by SWE researchers to push the boundaries of floating offshore wind energy.

The main task of the candidate will be to contribute to a floating wind farm research project. Within this project, the candidate will develop design methodologies for mooring systems, inter-array dynamic cables, and export cables in floating offshore wind farms. The design objective is to improve efficiency and reduce the cost of energy using passive relocation and active wind turbine control.

Your responsibilities:

In addition to research activities, responsibilities will include:

Supporting SWE’s teaching activities (e.g., lectures and supervision of student theses)
Contributing to project management within ongoing research projects.
Participating in other institute-related tasks are required.

What we can offer you:

An internationally recognized, young and motivated team of researchers.
A versatile and interdisciplinary job and the possibility to pursue a PhD.
A flexible working environment to support your professional and academic development.
Collaboration with international research institutions and industry partners in wind energy.
Flexible working hours.
