The Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und -prüfung (BAM) is a materials research organization in Germany. Our mission is to ensure safety in technology and chemistry. We perform research and testing in materials science, materials engineering and chemistry to improve the safety of products and processes. At BAM we do research that matters. Our work covers a broad array of topics in the focus areas of energy, infrastructure, environment, materials, and chemistry and process engineering.
We are looking for talented people to join us.

Your responsibilities include:

Scientific processing of the research project ‘InInspekt’ (robot-based multisensory internal inspection of rotor blades). The focus is on the development, testing and validation of measurement strategies for passive and active thermography as well as the processing and publication of multimodal sensor data.

Scientific design and definition of measurement strategies for two-stage thermographic inspection (passive and active) inside rotor blades
Selection, procurement and integration of suitable hardware (thermographic camera, heat source) into the overall robotic system in coordination with the project partners
Planning, organisation and implementation of experimental investigations on real rotor blade sections at the BAM site, as well as participation in data collection in the field (Germany and EU)
Systematic processing, fusion and analysis of multimodal raw data (RGB, 3D scans, thermography)
Creation and publication of a scientific reference data set in accordance with FAIR principles

Your qualifications:

Completed university degree (diploma, master's) in physics, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, materials science, physical engineering, computer science or similar.
Doctorate is an advantage
Very good practical programming experience, preferably in Python or Matlab, for signal and image processing and data analysis
Experience in working on application-oriented research projects, ideally in the field of non-destructive testing of wind turbines or fibre composite materials
Knowledge in the field of multimodal data fusion (e.g. image, 3D and thermography data) is an advantage
Willingness to travel within Germany and abroad
Driving licence
Very good knowledge of German (at least B1) and very good knowledge of English
Very good physical fitness and willingness and ability to participate in GWO training (including working at heights) and to carry out onshore and offshore field measurements on and at wind turbines
Strong team and communication skills for working in an interdisciplinary consortium
Goal-oriented and structured approach to work, initiative/commitment and ability to take action, as well as decisiveness and decision-making skills

We offer:

Work in national and international networks with universities, research institutions and industrial companies
Attractive and modern working environment with excellent infrastructure and state-of-the-art scientific equipment (laboratories, etc.)
Scope for research and development for your own innovative ideas
The opportunity to actively participate in the development of quality and safety standards
Good work-life balance (possibility of mobile working [up to 60%], flexible working hours, 30 days of vacation and up to 12 days of compensatory time off per year as well as part-time options)
