Application deadline01.08.2026

Scope of workpart-time

Weekly hours75 % of standard work hours per week

The position is part of the proposed project "Prediction of Seismic Wavefields at Depth" and belongs to the joint project PREDICT-NN "Newtonian Noise Cancelling Headphones" in the scope of R&D for the Einstein Telescope in Germany. This project aims to develop advanced methods for characterizing and mitigating Newtonian Noise (NN) by integrating machine learning, high-performance computing, and novel sensor technologies. The successful candidate will join a dynamic research environment, contributing to the development of next-generation seismic monitoring systems and supporting the Einstein Telescope’s sensitivity goals.

Your responsibilities

Duties include academic services in the project named above. Research associates may also pursue further academic qualifications outside of their work responsibilities. They may also pursue doctoral studies outside of working duties.

Within PREDICT-NN this PhD position will focus on predicting the seismic wavefield at depth using surface seismic measurements and local site proxies. Responsibilities include collecting and preparing datasets from the KiK-net observation network as well as developing and implementing an appropriate machine learning architecture to predict the ground motion at depth. A key task will be the robust estimation of corresponding uncertainties. The position will collaborate with national and international partners to validate prediction capabilities against real-world data from testbeds such as the Black Forest Observatory. The research will contribute to reducing reliance on borehole sensors and optimizing approaches for NN reduction in the Einstein Telescope.

This position offers the opportunity to work at the intersection of geophysics, machine learning, and gravitational wave science, directly contributing to the next-generation gravitational wave detectors.

Your profile

A university degree in a relevant field.

We welcome applications from candidates who meet the following requirements:

a completed research-oriented Master’s degree in Geophysics, Physics, Computer Sciences, Applied Mathematics, or a closely related field; the degree must be completed upon signing the employment contract
an outstanding academic track record with demonstrated research potential in machine learning applications and seismological data analysis
a strong dedication to scientific inquiry, reliability, and the ability to collaborate effectively in interdisciplinary teams

Essential Skills and Qualifications:

a strong background in seismological data analysis and/or seismic site characterization
experience in machine learning, particularly in the application to seismological problems
programming proficiency in Python, MATLAB, or a comparable language for scientific computing
an excellent command of English, both verbal and written, with the ability to communicate effectively within an international research environment

Prior Experience in Several of the Following Fields is Beneficial:

experience with
- high-performance computing or parallel processing for geophysical applications
- various machine learning architectures for geophysical datasets
- seismic wavefield prediction or the analysis of seismic site parameters
- the quantification of uncertainties in machine learning models
open-source scientific software development or contribution

Outstanding candidates will bring a high intrinsic motivation, individual responsibility, creative scientific thinking, and extensive social and team skills.

We offer

Reliable remuneration based on wage agreements
Continuing education opportunities
University pensions
Attractive location
Flexible working hours
Work-life balance opportunities
Health management, EGYM Wellpass
Educational leave
30 days of vacation per annum
