What will be your role? 

You will have the unique opportunity to make an impact in increasing complex cyber-physical systems (CPS) availability through fundamental improvements in diagnostics methods. You will contribute to the development, improvement and extension of these methods to make systems better diagnosable by design and during operation, improving both high tech systems up-time and product quality performance.

As a scientist operating from industry labs at high-tech giants, you bridge the gap between academia and industrial practice in applied research projects. You share insights that you gain during your research with industrial partners and science. As you often work in a small team, you have an important say in the course of the project. We look forward to you sharing your ideas.

The research projects from ESI (TNO) you can contribute to are numerous. ESI currently has projects on system diagnosability at ASML, Canon, and Philips, focusing both on diagnosing hardware problems and on software issues.
