As study driven and therefore also research oriented department we are looking forward to explore the possibilities of artificial intelligence in the defense domain.

Your mission will be to support and setup innovative machine learning environments to implement and use state of the art reinforcement learning algorithms.

• Location: Friedrichshafen

• Start: As soon as possible

• Duration: 4 - 6 months

Your location

At the Airbus site in Friedrichshafen you will be working on innovation where others spend their holidays. Enjoy panoramic views of Lake Constance while having lunch in our canteen. And after work, join one of our many corporate sports groups to go running, sailing or skiing.

• Design, train and evaluate different neural network architectures and algorithms for Deep Reinforcement Learning (e.g. PPO2, DQN)

• Support in the development and improvement of the simulation environment

• You will improve your Deep Reinforcement Learning skills by gaining hands-on experiences for applying latest Deep RL techniques in a defence domain

Your tasks

• Development of state of the art reinforcement learning (RL) environment’s

• Evaluation of RL algorithms

• Setup of appropriate training architecture (e.g. server/cluster, MPI etc.)

• Support existing RL topics and introduce new perspectives/innovative ideas

Desired skills and qualifications

• Enrolled student (d/f/m) within Information Technology, Industrial Engineering, Computing, Software or similar field of study
