Introduction Driving simulator studies produce valuable information about how people interact with vehicles and driving systems. We are looking for two master’s students to explore how researchers can make better use of data from simulator tests. The students will focus on different but connected parts of the challenge: human factors research needs and software development. As students, you will become part of our human factors team, which conducts user studies and works closely with professional truck drivers. You will also collaborate with the team developing our truck simulator, and your work will contribute directly to our ongoing activities.
Candidate Profiles We are looking for two master’s students: - One student with a background in interaction design, cognitive science, psychology, human factors or a related field, and an interest in human behaviour and research methods.

New AI Engineer postings at the employers we follow are up 134% over the last 6 weeks compared with the 6 before.
Each bar is one week of new postings. The darkest bars are the last 6 weeks.
Counted from the hiring pages we’ve followed for at least five weeks, so employers we add don’t look like growth. Updated weekly.
We file this job under AI Engineer, by the work the posting describes.
AI engineers build products on top of AI models that already exist, most often large language models: they connect a model to a company's data and tools and ship the assistants, agents and search features people use.
Postings ask for strong Python or TypeScript, experience with model APIs, retrieval and agent frameworks, and ways to test whether the model's answers are good enough.
An ML engineer trains and serves models; an AI engineer usually starts from a model someone else trained and builds the product around it, though titles often mix the two.
Driving simulator studies produce valuable information about how people interact with vehicles and driving systems. We are looking for two master’s students to explore how researchers can make better use of data from simulator tests. The students will focus on different but connected parts of the challenge: human factors research needs and software development.

After a simulator test, researchers need to review and interpret the collected data in relation to the research questions, and consider what the findings mean for future research and development. This process can be time-consuming, and there is currently no structured approach that can be used across studies. As a result, the analysis process often has to be developed from scratch each time. AI could help make this work more efficient by supporting data processing, analysis, summarisation and visualisation.
For such support to be useful, it needs to include both the needs of human factors research and the opportunities and limitations of data processing.
The aim of these two related thesis projects is to investigate how AI-supported analysis could help the human factors team work with driving simulator data. The projects will address the topic from complementary perspectives and create a data handling system and a user interface for human factor researchers.
The two projects will be connected through a shared theme and collaboration with the human factors team. The students will work individually with their own focus area, and their work will come together in a shared application prototype.
Project 1: HMI and research needs
This project may include:
Project 2: Data analysis application and software development
This project may include:
TRATON is in a partnership with OpenAI and the students will have access to Codex and other relevant tools as well as needed tokens/credits.
The students will coordinate their work and share relevant findings, while each project will have its own research question and thesis.
We are looking for two master’s students:
Both students should be curious, analytical and interested in collaborating across disciplines. An interest in transport, driving or simulator research is an advantage.
