The aviation sector is undergoing a massive transformation towards climate neutrality by 2050. A project within this transformation focuses on ultra-efficient aircraft designs and alternative energy carriers. You will develop a dynamic, predictive roadmap tool steering the sector toward a net-zero future.
What you do
- Develop a dynamic tool that calculates alternative routes based on cost, lead-time, effect, and sustainability criteria.
- Develop this platform across three stages: predicting alternative routes, calculating second-order economic and systemic effects, and analyzing tipping points where new technologies achieve economic viability.
- Lead a work package focusing on alternative energy carriers.
- Collaborate closely with consortium partners.
- Conduct advanced system thinking research, pushing beyond conventional boundaries to factor in external systemic influences such as artificial intelligence, quantum computing, and geographic shifts.
What they ask
- A PhD in Aerospace Engineering, Innovation Management, Systems Engineering, or a closely related technical discipline.
- A proven track record as a robust system thinker and first-principle thinker, with a natural inclination for thinking beyond current conventions.
- Strong analytical capabilities to move beyond immediate first-order trends and accurately calculate second-order systemic and economic effects.
- Strong interest in alternative energy carriers.
- Familiarity with assessing external technological influences, such as artificial intelligence, autonomous systems, and quantum computing.
- Excellent communication skills to engage with high-level industry partners and external experts.
