Job Description:

Airbus Operations is looking for a

Master Thesis (d/f/m) SysML v2 for Early-Phase Engineering of Robotic Production Systems

You are looking for a master thesis thesis Then apply now! We look forward to you supporting us as a Masterand (d/f/m)!

• Location: Hamburg Finkenwerder

• Start: 01.03.26

• Duration: 6 months

Are you passionate about Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) and the next generation of modeling languages

Join our Robotics department and contribute to shaping how future production and robotic systems are designed using SysML v2.

We are seeking a highly motivated and skilled Masters student to conduct an in-depth study on how SysML v2 can be leveraged to model complex production and robotic systems.
This thesis aims to bridge the gap between domain engineering and systems modeling making SysML v2 approachable for robotics experts without deep MBSE experience.

Your location

You will be working at the largest production site for civil aircraft situated in Hamburg. Its location on the southern banks of the river Elbe includes the option to commute by ferry. Experience the special flair of Hamburg in your spare time where vibrant cosmopolitan culture meets nautic legacy.

Your benefits

• Work-life balance with a 35-hour week (flexitime).

• International environment with the opportunity to network globally.

• Work with modern/diversified technologies.

• At Airbus we see you as a valuable team member and you are not hired to brew coffee instead you are in close contact with the interfaces and are part of our weekly team meetings.

• Opportunity to participate in the Generation Airbus Community to expand your own network.

Your tasks and responsibilities

• Conduct a systematic comparison of SysML v1 and SysML v2 focusing on their capability to describe robotic production systems.

• Derive transferable concepts from existing SysML v1 models and define how they can be represented in SysML v2.

• Develop a conceptual modeling approach that allows domain experts (e.g. robotics engineers) to describe production systems in SysML v2 without deep MBSE expertise.

• Integrate domain-specific extensions for robotics (e.g. robot capabilities workspaces control behavior) into the SysML v2 metamodel or profile.

• Validate the proposed approach through expert interviews and application studies using example scenarios or reference systems.

• Provide a set of modeling guidelines and best practices to support future usage of SysML v2 in early-phase engineering of robotic systems.

Desired skills and qualifications

• Currently enrolled in a Masters degree program in Systems Engineering Mechatronics Robotics Computer Science or a related field.

• Solid understanding of systems engineering principles and interest in model-based development.

• Basic knowledge of SysML v1 and experience with modeling tools (e.g. Cameo MagicDraw Capella) is beneficial.

• Interest in learning and applying SysML v2 (basic familiarity is an advantage).

• Analytical and conceptual thinking skills with the ability to structure complex systems in an understandable way.

• Self-driven methodical and open to interdisciplinary collaboration between systems engineering and robotics.

• Strong English and German communication skills.
