STUDENT ASSISTANT – FORTISS IIOT LAB,
ORCHESTRATION OF AUTONOMOUS ROBOTICS APPLICATIONS
WITH THE KUBERNETES CODECO FRAMEWORK (M/F/D)
With the growing adoption of IIoT applications,
container orchestration solutions such as
Kubernetes require enhancements and additional
support to handle the dynamic migration of
workloads and system states more effectively.
Addressing these challenges, the fortiss research
institute, within its IIoT competence field, is
actively developing mechanisms to improve the
orchestration of mobile and resource-constrained
Edge environments within the Horizone Europe
CODECO (Cognitive Decentralised Edge-Cloud
Orchestration).
A Manufacturing use case (CODECO P5), led by
fortiss, serves as the foundation for this
research. The project explores how CODECO can
enhance the automation of Mobile Automated Robots
(MARs) by improving their autonomy through
decentralized control. This use case is currently
being deployed in the fortiss IIoT Lab, with the
key objective of increasing MAR fleet efficiency
and adaptability.
The focus of this position is on the further
development of the CODECO manufacturing use-case,
in particular on the setup, implementation and
validation of CODECO within a federated cluster
environment involving MARs.
__________
Your tasks:
• Get acquainted with the fortiss CODECO
proposed use-case and its current status of
deployment, and with the fortiss CODECO
demonstrator.
• Get acquainted with tools such as CODECO
and its components, Kubernetes, autonomous
robotics applications.
• Perform experimentation to assess the use
of CODECO in the proposed use-case.
• Support the validation and demonstration
of the proposed concepts.
__________
Your profile:
• Currently enrolled on a Master’s degree in
computer science, information systems or similar.
• Practical experience in programming
languages preferably Python.
• Experience with tools such as Docker,
Kubernetes, ROS, are valued.
• Good communication skills in English,
basic German skills is a plus.
________
Our offer:
• 20 hour position, 6 months, possibility to
extend.
• Get involved with novel and exciting
solutions in the context of IoT-Edge-Cloud
orchestration, and in alignment with industrial
partners.
• An international and dynamic work
environment with highly qualified and motivated
colleagues
__________
Did we catch your interest?
Please submit your application with a motivational statement, a detailed CV and a current transcript of records.
