Job Description:

In order to support Airbus Defence and Space we are looking for a

Master's student

Are you looking for a master thesis opportunity and want to gain experience in spacecraft operations, Fault Detection, Isolation, and Recovery (FDIR), and AI-based estimation?

Then apply now!

We look forward to you supporting us in the department of Operations (OPS), FDIR, and Functional Verification as a Master student!

• Location: Immenstaad
• Start: As soon as possible
• Duration: 6 months

About the Project

This master thesis will be carried out as part of the research activities performed within the Laboratory for Operations and On-board Autonomy Innovation, which aims to explore the application of Artificial Intelligence in space-borne systems. The specific focus of this thesis will be to investigate and implement Fault Detection, Isolation, and Recovery techniques for an AI-based attitude estimation filter. The work will contribute to enhancing the safety and reliability of AI-driven spacecraft attitude determination, particularly when traditional formal methods for Verification & Validation (V&V) are limited.

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.

Your benefits

• Attractive salary and work-life balance with a 35-hour week (flexitime).
• International environment with the opportunity to network globally.
• Work with modern/diversified technologies.
• At Airbus, we see you as a valuable team member and you are not hired to brew coffee, instead you are in close contact with the interfaces and are part of our weekly team meetings.
• Opportunity to participate in the Generation Airbus Community to expand your own network.

Your tasks and responsibilities

• Research and analyze state-of-the-art FDIR methodologies, particularly in the context of AI-based systems.
• Develop and implement an FDIR shell around an AI-driven attitude estimator to detect anomalies in the AI output, isolate faults and ensure system integrity and robustness.
• Integrate and test the developed solution in a simulation environment using MATLAB/Simulink, Python, and C++.
• Evaluate the possibility of running the algorithms on space-qualified hardware.
• Document findings and results, with the possibility of a conference or journal publication.

Desired skills and qualifications

• Enrolled full-time master student in Aerospace Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Physics, or Mathematics.
• Background in control systems, AI-based estimation, and signal processing.
• Experience with MATLAB/Simulink, Python, and C++ for algorithm development.
• Understanding of fault detection and recovery methods in safety-critical systems is a plus.
• Knowledge of VHDL coding is a plus.
• Ability to work independently in a dynamic and research-oriented environment.

Please upload the following documents: cover letter, CV, relevant transcripts, enrollment certificate.
