You will have the unique opportunity to raise systems engineering competencies in the high-tech industry to a higher level, building on the knowledge and insights generated through research projects with our industry partners (ASML, Canon, Philips, and Vanderlande). This role embraces the principle of “industry as a lab,” meaning research is conducted in close collaboration with leading companies to ensure practical relevance and real-world impact.

This role involves conducting applied research, developing methodologies and tools for AI integration, and working closely with our research teams to deploy these technologies effectively in an industrial environment. Your work will be in the research line System Architecting and Engineering Methodologies, investigating the development of digital engineering assistants, using Generative AI-based techniques. This program addresses the challenge of knowledge personnel scarcity by leveraging recent advancements in Generative AI to empower professionals to achieve faster data-to-insights in quality and knowledge management processes.

The work consists of developing proofs of concept to demonstrate the problem, prototyping different scenarios for solution, demonstrating the value, constraints, and benefits of these solutions, and helping bring them into industrial practice.
