We are looking for a Master’s student to conduct their thesis project within our prototyping and applied systems team, contributing to applied research in Human–Robot Interaction, with a strong emphasis on interactive systems, prototyping, and empirical evaluation. In this role, you will work closely with researchers and engineers to explore how humans interact with semi-autonomous systems, and how control, feedback, and sensing can be designed to enable safe, effective, and intuitive operation. The focus is on applied neuroadaptive scenarios: building real prototypes, running experiments, and evaluating behavior in realistic settings. This position is ideal for someone interested in HRI/HCI as a systems-driven discipline, spanning interaction design, implementation, experimentation, and analysis. The intention is to align the role with a Master’s thesis, depending on topic fit and supervision availability. What you will do * Design, build, and iterate on a prototype for human-in-the-loop and shared-control scenarios * Work with engineers to develop control interfaces, sensing pipelines, and experimental infrastructure * Plan and conduct a user study and system evaluation * Analyze experimental data and help translate results into a report, demo, and research artifact * Collaborate with researchers and engineers across rapid prototyping and iteration cycles What we offer * Hands-on experience across the full arc of applied research * Close collaboration with experienced BCI researchers * A pragmatic, low-hierarchy environment with room to take ownership * Flexible scheduling around exams and coursework
