DESY, with more than 2900 employees at its two locations in Hamburg and Zeuthen, is one of the world's leading research centres. Its research focuses on decoding the structure and function of matter, from the smallest particles of the universe to the building blocks of life. In this way, DESY contributes to solving the major questions and urgent challenges facing science, society and industry. With its ultramodern research infrastructure, its interdisciplinary research platforms and its international networks, DESY offers a highly attractive working environment in the fields of science, technology and administration as well as for the education of highly qualified young scientists.

The DESY group "Information Technology" (IT) is participating in a variety of high profile national and European projects, evaluating new and innovative IT technologies. One of DESY's key initiatives, in close collaboration with partners from the Helmholtz Alliance, is to establish a platform that enables industry to transform the complex challenges posed by the rapidly evolving Al landscape into opportunities for advancing efficiency and quality in scientific research. To achieve this, DESY is establishing a dedicated team of AI and infrastructure experts, spanning the entire spectrum from the theoretical foundations of AI to the practical implementation of solutions on large-scale infrastructures. While all team members are expected to have a broad understanding of the entire technology stack, this position will primarily focus on curating and preparing datasets for training Al models.
