Research at PIK

The climate needs bright minds. The Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK) addresses crucial scientific questions in the fields of global change, climate impacts and sustainable development. It is one of the world's leading research institutions in its field and offers natural and social scientists from around the world an inspiring environment for excellent interdisciplinary research.

The Climate Economics and Policy research department, located at EUREF Campus in Berlin-Schöneberg, is offering an exciting opportunity to be part of the Evidence for Climate Solutions working group. We are currently looking for a Student Research Assistant (m/f/d) (Position number: 06-2026 SHK PATHFINDER) to support the PATHFINDER 2 project, among others, starting on 01.05.2026 or as soon as possible.

The position is funded for initially 1 year, with the possibility of extension. The remuneration is determined according to the guidelines of the TdL.

    evaluate and develop automation tools for information extraction
  • help us to unlock multi-lingual evidence synthesis
