Technische Universität Berlin offers an open position:

Research Assistant - salary grade E13 TV-L Berliner Hochschulen

part-time employment may be possible, under the reserve that funds are granted

Working field:

Scientists at the Hermann Rietschel Institute have been researching the energy­efficient use of system technology in buildings and neighborhoods for 125 years. Our research profile aims to minimize the tension between the main topics

  • Contamination control,
  • lndoor Environmental Quality (IEQ) and
  • Energy-efficient systems engineering in buildings and districts.

Our expertise in the development of physical and Al-supported simulation models as well as the development and maintenance of numerous test laboratories enables us to offer a range of services from basic research to prototype development.
In the field of energy-efficient HVAC technologies in buildings and districts, we focus on innovative generation, distribution and transfer systems that are designed to make the heating transition a success. The subject of the investigation is presence­equivalent heating and cooling concepts, energetically, ecologically and economically optimized generation structures and operating modes of heating networks as well as the control technology optimization of individual components. In addition to the development of physical white-box and grey-box models, machine learning methods are also used in current research projects. Neural networks are used to forecast load conditions and to optimize the operation of HVAC systems and heat generators. The institute maintains a modular multi-level district heating network test bench that can be used to map the most innovative 5th generation heating networks. A hardware-in-­the-loop test bench enables the optimization of control strategies in practical applications. The HRI also investigates solutions developed in practical research collaborations in field tests.

We are looking for you to support our team!
In our current research projects, we are looking for your support to

  • development of prediction models for heating and cooling load,
  • development of innovative control concepts for heat generators using machine learning
  • lnvestigation of algorithms for automatic fault detection in HVAC systerns

If interested, there is the possibility of a doctorate in the specialisation.

Requirements:

  • Successfully completed scientific university degree (Diploma, Master or equivalent) preferably in the field of computer science, engineering, or similar
  • At least two of the three key competencies:
    o Good knowledge of machine learning in the field of supervised learning or reinforcement learning
    o Good knowledge in the field of data acquisition and analysis
    o Good programming skills (ideally in Python)
  • Good knowledge of German and/or English required; willingness to acquire the respective missing language skills

Desirable:

  • High level of motivation and initiative
  • Team and organizational skills
  • Very good PC skills (hardware and software)
