Scientific Nautical Officer (f/m/d) as part of a research project / Wissenschaftliche:r Nautiker:in (w/m/d) im Forschungsprojekt

with full weekly working hours (39.2 hours) for a fixed term until 30.04.2028.

Hochschule Bremen is known for its cosmopolitan attitude and doing science for practical application. With around 70 predominantly international degree programmes and innovative, forms of lifelong learning, Hochschule Bremen offers its almost 9,000 students excellent prospects for their personal development and a successful career start. With our international profile, we have held a leading position among universities of applied sciences for several decades. The improvement of study conditions and attractive working conditions are particularly important to us and are reflected in HSB's development planning.

The aim of the LetsROC project (Remote Operation Center for (semi-)autonomous shipping) is to develop and certify concepts and solutions for human-machine interaction in remote operation centers (ROCs) for monitoring and controlling a MASS fleet in maritime shipping. This requires the identification of operationally relevant scenarios (e.g., docking, pilotage, and sea passage under various environmental and traffic conditions) and requirements, as well as the identification of parameters such as navigation status, course, speed, other ship parameters, sensor data, system states and error messages. Last but not least, the integration of this data from simulators into the ROC platform will be an important contribution by HSB.

If the formal requirements are met and the candidate is willing to pursue a doctorate, a doctorate based on the project will be supported.
