Part-time assistant to the head of department (50%)
The Fraunhofer Society is one of the world's leading organisations for application-oriented research. 75 institutes develop groundbreaking technologies for our economy and society – more precisely: 32 000 people from technology, science, administration and IT. You know, who comes to Fraunhofer wants and can change something. For yourself, for us and the markets of today and tomorrow. At the Fraunhofer Institute for Optronics, System Technology and Image Evaluation IOSB we combine research, technology and practice. As one of the largest Fraunhofer institutes, we have a wide range of expertise – from the physical foundations to data analysis by AI – for very different application domains such as (autonomous) mobility, industrial production and quality control, as well as defence and security. Become part of our team and contribute to our research being implemented in innovative applications. In our Human-AI Interaction (HAI) department, everything revolves around the interaction of people with AI-based systems – in many different fields of application. Our research goal is to make AI systems intuitive, transparent and useful. In order for people and AI systems to work together at eye level, the systems must become intelligent, intuitively operable and learn to understand user intention. We explore technologies and build systems in support projects and orders from industry where these technologies are used. At the interface between science and administration, you play a central role in the smooth running of our department. With organizational talent and a view for priorities, you actively shape the working day of our team – and create spaces where innovative research becomes possible. Sounds like a job that suits you? We look forward to your application! !
