About the Job

Requirements

  • The candidate must be studying for a master's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Business Information Systems, Data Science, or a comparable program.
  • The candidate must have confident programming experience; Python experience is ideal.
  • The candidate must know REST APIs and HTTP; experience with Server-Sent Events streaming is an advantage.
  • The candidate must have basic knowledge of Linux and containers; GPU server or LLM inference server operations experience is a plus.
  • The candidate must be interested in LLMs, model routing, embeddings or retrieval-augmented generation, and AI-assisted software development; previous experience with coding agents is ideal.
  • The candidate must know experimental design and statistics or be motivated to develop those skills.
  • The candidate must communicate confidently in German and English.

Responsibilities

  • Review research on LLM routing, cascades, retrieval-augmented generation, and agentic coding systems.
  • Design and prototypically implement an inference gateway with a Chat Completions-compatible interface, for example in Python.
  • Select coding agents for evaluation using transparent criteria, such as configurable endpoints, tool calling, script mode, and extensibility.
  • Implement a transparent, rule-based routing policy based on observable signals, treating privacy requirements as a hard constraint.
  • Make ALTEN-internal knowledge accessible to the agents and investigate its effect at each model tier, local and cloud.
  • Build a task catalog with automated acceptance tests and an evaluation harness.
  • Compare against always-local, always-cloud, random, and oracle baselines for solution rate, tokens and cost per solved task, and latency; analyze results statistically using mixed-effects models, non-inferiority analysis, power analysis, and a token-budget pilot across approximately 3,450 automated runs.
  • Replicate the evaluation with a second, different coding agent to test whether the findings transfer.
  • Derive design recommendations, including thresholds, hardware sizing, and break-even analysis.

Desired Qualifications

  • Experience with Server-Sent Events streaming is advantageous.
  • Experience with GPU servers or operating LLM inference servers is a plus.
  • Previous experience with coding agents is ideal.
