Definition working student

Working students (d/f/m) are students who are enrolled at a University or some other institution of higher education, and who are employed in a reasonably long, fixed-term position parallel to their studies. This position must not be confused with an internship or with the possibility of writing a final thesis.

This employment usually takes place directly on the company's premises. A working student's main focus remains on their studies, which is why, during term-time, working students are not allowed to work more than 20 hours per week.

Working students therefore usually work near their place of study, so as to conveniently combine studying and employment.

Your location

Our site is just a stone's throw away from Munich, the beautiful capital of Bavaria. Are you into sports and other outdoor activities? The Alps and Lake Starnberg are within an hour’s reach, offering a multitude of recreational options.

Your benefits

- Attractive salary and work-life balance with an 18-hour week (flexitime).
- A final thesis is possible after consultation with the department.
- International environment with the opportunity to network globally.
- Work with modern/diversified technologies.
- Opportunity to participate in the Generation Airbus Community to expand your own network.

Your tasks and responsibilities

- Support the development and implementation of GNSS positioning algorithms within our end-to-end navigation simulation environment.
- Assist with software lifecycle tasks, including design, coding, testing, and technical documentation.
- Process, analyze, and visualize complex datasets to help evaluate system performance.
- Work closely with software and navigation engineers to improve system functionality and usability.
- Document your findings and present project results clearly to the team and stakeholders.

Desired skills and qualifications

- Full-time student (d/f/m) in Navigation, Aerospace Engineering, Computer Science, Mathematics, Geodesy, or related fields.
- Advanced programming skills in C++ and experience with software testing.
- Knowledge of satellite navigation systems (GPS, Galileo) and first-hand experience with GNSS receiver algorithms, GNSS measurements, or satellite-based augmentation systems (WAAS, EGNOS).
- Curiosity and enthusiasm to dive deeper into GNSS Receiver and Positioning algorithms.
- Strong team player (d/f/m) with excellent communication skills in German and English and the ability to work independently.

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