We, the BMW Group are offering an exciting PhD position focused on fabrication-aware-design to advance car design and development. This research topic resides at the nexus of design considerations, functional evaluation, and manufacturing constraints within an end-to-end development process, integrated into a coherent engineering workflow.

What awaits you?

  • Research in generative systems for CAx workflows, i.e. CAD, CAE, CAM etc.

  • Developing methods, algorithms and development processes for generating geometries with given requirements, such as manufacturability, design aesthetics, structural mechanics, weight and cost.

  • Analysis and integration of Fabrication requirements and constraints in the design framework in order to generate suitable geometries, e.g. through mathematical formulation.

  • The vision is to enable innovative techniques in the real-life car development.

  • Tight collaboration with universities, as well as various BMW engineering and manufacturing departments is required.

  • Publication of results and active contribution to the research community within BMW and the broader automotive ecosystems.
What should you bring along?
  • University degree in architecture, computer science, mathematics, engineering, or an equivalent field.

  • Basic knowledge in Additive Manufacturing and Robotics and in programming (e.g. Python).

  • Good understanding of CAx artifacts (3D geometry, simulation model, etc.) and related workflows used in product design and development  including aesthetic design aspects.

  • Knowledge in graphical programming (low code, e.g. Synera, Grasshopper).

  • Knowledge in basic vehicle design and automotive technology.

  • Experience with commercial CAD, CAM, CAE, PIDO and optimization software.

  • A track record of research contributions (publications, conference talks, or equivalent) is a plus.

  • Business fluent English, German language skills are a plus.
