What if your next project shaped the next decade of innovation?

At TWT Science & Innovation, we’re looking for a Research Manager who thrives at the edge of science and engineering — someone who can turn research into impact and curiosity into momentum.

Over the last decade, 22 researchers from TWT became university professors. Now, we’re searching for the next mind to push the frontier forward.

About the Role

As a Research Manager, you’ll lead interdisciplinary R&D programs in Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Simulation, Digital Twins, and Engineering Sciences. You’ll work with our customers — world‑leading companies like Mercedes-Benz, Porsche, BMW, — and top universities e.g., MIT, Harvard, Berkeley, Stanford and ETH Zurich — shaping projects that bridge academia and industry.

What You’ll Do

• Lead and manage international research projects across AI, Data Science, and Engineering.
• Build and run multi‑stakeholder consortia with universities, tech giants, and public institutions.
• Identify emerging research opportunities and drive competitive funding proposals (EU & national).
• Translate complex scientific insights into technologies that redefine industries.
• Represent TWT at major conferences and review panels — and make your mark in the global research community.
• Mentor exceptional young researchers and foster internal excellence.

What You Bring

• PhD or Postdoctoral degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Applied Mathematics, or related fields preferably from a top university.
• Proven success in coordinating international and interdisciplinary research programs.
• Strong grasp of AI, data‑driven engineering, or simulation‑based design.
• Experience with EU or national funding programs (Horizon Europe, DFG, BMBF, etc.).
• Fluent in English and German; strong communicator across cultures and disciplines.
• A growth mindset, strategic thinking, and the ability to turn research into reality.

Why Join TWT?

• Collaborate in teams with engineers, scientists, and innovators graduated from world‑rank top universities e.g. from MIT, Harvard, Berkeley or Oxford, in an interdisciplinary environment.
• Work with the world’s leading companies and universities — and help define the technologies they’ll use next.
• Shape the future of applied research, from automotive and aerospace to AI and robotics.
• Flexible working culture, sustainable mobility options, and a deeply curious team.
• A place where careers turn into legacies.

We’re not just hiring a Research Manager — we’re inviting a mind that dares to imagine more.
