Master Thesis (d/f/m) – SysML v2 for Early-Phase Engineering of Robotic Production Systems
Hamburg Area
Full-time
Hybrid
New GradAirbus Operations is looking for a Master’s student to support their Robotics department by conducting a thesis on SysML v2 for modeling robotic production systems. The role involves comparing SysML versions, developing modeling approaches for domain experts, and providing guidelines for future usage of SysML v2.
AerospaceCommercialManufacturing
Responsibilities
Conduct a systematic comparison of SysML v1 and SysML v2, focusing on their capability to describe robotic production systems
Derive transferable concepts from existing SysML v1 models and define how they can be represented in SysML v2
Develop a conceptual modeling approach that allows domain experts (e.g., robotics engineers) to describe production systems in SysML v2 without deep MBSE expertise
Integrate domain-specific extensions for robotics (e.g., robot capabilities, workspaces, control behavior) into the SysML v2 metamodel or profile
Validate the proposed approach through expert interviews and application studies using example scenarios or reference systems
Provide a set of modeling guidelines and best practices to support future usage of SysML v2 in early-phase engineering of robotic systems
Qualification
Required
Currently enrolled in a Master's degree program in Systems Engineering, Mechatronics, Robotics, Computer Science, or a related field
Solid understanding of systems engineering principles and interest in model-based development
Analytical and conceptual thinking skills, with the ability to structure complex systems in an understandable way
Self-driven, methodical, and open to interdisciplinary collaboration between systems engineering and robotics
Strong English and German communication skills
Preferred
Basic knowledge of SysML v1 and experience with modeling tools (e.g., Cameo, MagicDraw, Capella) is beneficial
Interest in learning and applying SysML v2 (basic familiarity is an advantage)
Benefits
Work-life balance with a 35-hour week (flexitime).
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.
