Our team comprises approximately 300 employees from diverse national backgrounds, including 25 administrative staff members. Additionally, we regularly host guest researchers from around the globe.

Our research and teaching efforts are recognized among the world's elite in the energy sector, supported by extensive and state-of-the-art workshop and laboratory facilities that facilitate research and innovation in close collaboration with industry.

This position is aligned with the research initiative "Reliability in Power Electronic Components," and the PhD candidate will be integrated into the section focused on Applied Power Electronic Systems.

The doctoral research will center on the analysis and intelligent testing of power electronic components and systems, guided by complex mission profiles related to their reliability.

This will encompass data analysis, reliability modeling, robustness validation, and mission-profile-based accelerated testing. Prior experimental experience will be advantageous.

Applicants are required to submit a comprehensive project proposal detailing their initial concepts and ideas pertinent to the specific project for which they are applying.

This proposal should include a concise state-of-the-art review (with a brief list of references), a timeline, and the applicant's strategy for addressing the project objectives.

The project description should be approximately 4-5 pages in length.

A solid foundation in power electronics is essential. Proficiency in MATLAB, LabView, and primary circuit simulation tools such as PSpice and PLECS is highly sought after. Additional experience in the reliability domain, including power cycling, stress testing, modeling, and simulation, is advantageous but not obligatory.
