Student Trainee (f/m/x) – AI-Science (Part-Time)

Company Description

Anton Paar develops, produces, and distributes highly precise measuring instruments and automation and robotics solutions worldwide. Innovation, combined with craftsmanship and a genuine passion for research, forms the foundation of our success and drives everything we do.

We are looking for a motivated student trainee (f/m/x) to support our development team in integrating AI features and contributing to the development of high-precision analytical instruments.

Job Description

• Analyze measurement data represented as x-y plots generated by high-precision analytical instruments
• Identify material-specific patterns within the plots based on the shape, position, area, and extent of characteristic lines
• Evaluate expert-driven interpretations of material patterns and derive a basis for the decision of the most powerful AI-method to be applied
• Investigate the limitations of purely rule-based or automated analysis due to noise, slope variation, and non-ideal data characteristics
• Develop AI-supported tools for pattern recognition in measurement results to mimic expert evaluation
• Design and train machine learning models to detect and classify known material-specific signal patterns
• Implement anomaly detection methods to distinguish and filter out non-genuine signal artifacts from real measurement data
• Contribute to the creation of a robust, intelligent system for automated, expert-level interpretation of experimental results
  
  

Qualifications

• Ongoing studies in Computer Science, Data Science, Physics, Electrical Engineering, or a related technical field
• Solid understanding of AI methods and concepts, especially in pattern recognition and classification
• Experience with Python and common ML frameworks (e.g., TensorFlow, PyTorch, scikit-learn)
• Basic knowledge of signal processing and handling of experimental data
• Proficiency in English; German is a plus
• Analytical thinking and the ability to abstract expert decision-making into algorithmic models
• Interest in working at the interface between experimental physics, data science, and AI
• Independent, structured, and reliable working style
  
  

Additional Information

• A reliable and long-term workplace in our expanding and international high-tech company
• An innovative company culture that promotes technical excellence guaranteeing us the position of a technological leader in the global market
• A value-oriented working environment that fosters friendly, supportive cooperation between colleagues and, at the same time, provides room for involvement, dedication and individual responsibility
• Individual training and onboarding
• Work Outside Office (occasion-related possibility to work outside the office)
• Professional and personal development
