Our network of sky cameras generates multiple gigabytes of image data every day, whose management, preprocessing, and effective use place high demands on scalable storage, efficient data access, robust metadata management, and reliable quality control. Addressing these challenges is essential to ensure data integrity, enable reproducible research, and support downstream analyses and machine learning workflows in operational energy meteorology. You work at the interface of data engineering and scientific data management, contributing to scalable data ingestion, structured metadata management, automated processing pipelines, and the integration of heterogeneous observational data, with the goal of keeping complex, data-intensive datasets accessible, well documented, and usable for advanced analysis. You will be part of a diverse and motivated team working on energy-transition topics and contributing to climate protection. Close collaboration with supervisors and colleagues will support you in exchanging ideas and solving challenges. You will gain hands-on experience in software development, automated testing, version control and modern image-processing technologies. A particular highlight of the project is the opportunity to work in Almería, Spain, one of the sunniest locations in Europe.
