Are you a software engineer who wants to help the energy transition?
Then come to TU Berlin and work on one of the leading open source energy modelling frameworks PyPSA. PyPSA is used around the world by various research institutes, network operators, consultancies, governmental and non‑governmental organisations to understand future energy infrastructure requirements for reaching climate neutrality.
Details:
- application deadline: 15 March 2024
- duration: 3 years
The position is funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG) via its research software funding initiative.
