Definition working student

Working students are students who are enrolled at a University or some other institution of higher education, and who are employed in a reasonably long, fixed-term position parallel to their studies. This position must not be confused with an internship or with the possibility of writing a final thesis.

This employment usually takes place directly on the company's premises. A working student's main focus remains on their studies, which is why, during term-time, working students are not allowed to work more than 20 hours per week.

Working students therefore usually work near their place of study, so as to conveniently combine studying and employment.

Your location

Our site is just a stone's throw away from Munich, the beautiful capital of Bavaria. Are you into sports and other outdoor activities? The Alps and Lake Starnberg are within an hour’s reach, offering a multitude of recreational options.

• Attractive salary and work-life balance with an 18-hour week (flexitime).
• A final thesis is possible after consultation with the department.
• Mobile working after agreement with the department.
• Travelling overseas or within Germany (team events) is possible after consultation and agreement from the department.
• 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

• Contribute to the research and exploration of Agentic AI workflows and the Model Context Protocol (MCP) for enterprise use cases.
• Contribute to the development of a Semantic Layer using Graph Databases (Neo4j) to integrate data across Aris, Alfabet, and the Data Catalog.
• Contribute to the design of automated data pipelines and semantic mappings between disparate enterprise architecture tools.
• Contribute to the deployment and orchestration of AI-driven services and integration layers within OpenShift environments.
• Contribute to the modeling of the digital architecture on different layers (business, functional, data, technical) to support the semantic integration.

Desired skills and qualifications

• Enrolled full-time student (d/f/m) in the area of computer science, data science, engineering, or an equivalent field of study.
• First practical experience in Python programming or working with Graph Databases (e.g., Neo4j) is highly desirable.
• Interest in cutting-edge AI developments, specifically LLM Agents, RAG, and the Model Context Protocol (MCP).
• Experience with containerization (Docker) and cloud-native environments like OpenShift is a plus.
• Familiarity with RESTful APIs and data integration patterns is desirable.
