Key facts

Setting up, operating and automating the deployment so that partners can rebuild it without our help
Configuring and extending the connectors for new exchange scenarios
Sample data and small applications that act as data providers and consumers against the environment
Documentation that others can follow, so that procedures stay repeatable
Debugging a distributed system in which several components interact

Studies in computer science or a related field, bachelor's from the 3rd semester onwards, or master's
Confident with Java and Gradle or Maven
Practical experience with Git, containers and the command line
You have got something running on your own before — a personal project, an internship, a non-trivial course project
Willingness to work your way into an unfamiliar, large open-source codebase
Good English (project language, documentation). German is useful but not required
Willingness and ability to work on-site at our institute in Kaiserslautern on a regular basis; remote is possible for part of the role

Work on a European data infrastructure that is meant to run productively beyond the end of the project
Current open standards and technologies with relevance well beyond the agricultural domain
Ownership of a clearly defined area rather than assisting work
Close supervision and regular technical feedback
The option of a thesis — both bachelor's and master's theses are possible. Suitable topics emerge from the project work and are shaped together.
Flexible hours, and we work around exam periods
Paid at the standard student assistant rates, graded by degree held
