About the research centre or Inria departmentThe Centre Inria de l'Université de Grenoble research center groups together almost 600 people in 22 research teams and 7 research support departments.
Staff is present on three campuses in Grenoble, in close collaboration with other research and higher education institutions (Université Grenoble Alpes, CNRS, CEA, INRAE, …), but also with key economic players in the area.
Centre Inria de l'Université Grenoble Alpe is active in the fields of high- performance computing, verification and embedded systems, modeling of the environment at multiple levels, and data science and artificial intelligence. The center is a top-level scientific institute with an extensive network of international collaborations in Europe and the rest of the world.
ContextContext. eMob-Twin is a Prof-of-Concept project in relation with the Scale-FreeBack ERC Advanced Grant awarded to Carlos Canudas-de-Wit during 2016-22, and hosted by the CNRS. The project will be conducted within the DANCE research group (which is a joint CNRS (GIPSA-lab)-INRIA team). eMob- Twin is a digital twin for electromobility flexibility forecast. eMob-Twin will develop an enhanced multi-layer e‑mobility simulation tool driven by digital twin technology dealing with EVs of all kinds (private vehicles, fleets, and public transport), and the multi-power charging stations. eMob- Twin can be used by companies, stakeholders, and electricity markets for various purposes such as: forecasting e-flexibility, Optimal placement and power-capacity dimensioning of charging stations, assessing charging policies for EV users and energy markets, evaluation of charging strategies for ride- hailing fleet operators, studding the gird resiliency to an increase of EVs penetration rates, etc. Within ERC Scale-Freeback project we have developed a first version of this simulator specifically tailored to the Grenoble metropolitan area. The objective of the eMob-Twin in this project is to make this first platform transferable/adaptable to any other city/metropolis, with the possibility of intelligent parameter calibration via several data-mining novel mechanisms. Besides, we seek also to equipped the simulator with new features (toolboxes) and model improvements (models for driver behaviors) resulting from our theoretical research in electromobility. Finally, eMob-Twin will be equipped with an advanced Web Interface & Data Analysis modules displays the e-mobility network, making it easier for users to choose appropriate input parameters and see the computed results. The interface also enables users to study different scenarios using data-analysis tools. This development will be carried out together with the electromobility group constituted by two PhDs and two research engineers: one on the development of the new version of the eMob platform, which is the topic of this opening.
AssignmentJob description. We are looking for a team player to fill the position of Software Engineer (SE) to support, organize, design and develop, the proof of concept eMob-Twin. In this context, you will integrate a team of researchers and engineers specialized in control systems with a large experience in modeling, prediction and control of traffic systems, and in particular in Electromobility. In particular your Job will be to redesign of the actual software (beta version) which has been tailored to the Grenoble metropolitan area, so that can be portable to any other geographical area and can be automatically calibrated from public sources and other open-source data used in the beta version of the model.
The job is divided in two main parts:
Specifically, the work will include
From 2,652 € (depending on experience and qualifications).
General InformationTheme/Domain : Optimization and control of dynamic systems Web development (BAP E)
