About this position
TU Wien, Austria's largest technical university, is offering a University Assistant Post-Doc position at the Institute of Logic and Computation, specifically within the Research Unit of Databases and Artificial Intelligence. This full-time role (40 hours/week) focuses on data warehousing and system performance optimization, with an initial contract of one year and the possibility of extension for up to two years. The successful candidate will analyze and optimize the architecture and performance of an existing data warehouse system, improve ETL processes, introduce and evaluate optimized data models and indexing approaches, and enhance system monitoring, fault tolerance, and recovery mechanisms.
Collaboration with technical and academic partners is expected to ensure alignment with production workflows, and the candidate will be encouraged to publish results and contribute to technical communities. Organizational and administrative participation within the research division and faculty is also part of the role. Applicants must have a PhD in Computer Science, Information Systems, or a closely related field, with a strong background in data warehousing, database systems, or distributed data management.
Experience with ETL pipelines, SQL optimization, and system-level performance tuning is required, as is familiarity with modern data architectures (star/snowflake schemas, OLAP, data marts) and programming skills in Python, SQL, Java, or similar technologies. The position offers a dynamic research environment, opportunities for professional development, and a highly competitive salary (minimum EUR 4,932.90/month gross, paid 14 times/year, with potential increases based on experience).
TU Wien is committed to diversity and encourages applications from women and individuals with special needs. The application deadline is November 13th, 2025, and the expected start date is January 2026. For further information, applicants may contact Professor Katja Hose at [email protected].
