# Scientist – Federated Accounting Framework & Service Architecture for the Accounting4NFDI Project

DESY, with more than 2900 employees at its two locations in Hamburg and Zeuthen, is one of the world's leading research centres. Its research focuses on decoding the structure and function of matter, from the smallest particles of the universe to the building blocks of life. In this way, DESY contributes to solving the major questions and urgent challenges facing science, society and industry. With its ultramodern research infrastructure, its interdisciplinary research platforms and its international networks, DESY offers a highly attractive working environment in the fields of science, technology and administration as well as for the education of highly qualified young scientists.

Distributed research infrastructures (compute, storage, licenses, facilities, scientific instruments and digital services) require transparent usage information to support sustainable operation and fair access. Accounting4NFDI is developing a unified, federated accounting framework for NFDI consortia and services. Based on FAIR principles, the framework will align with EOSC requirements and is intended to become a Base4NFDI service that interoperates with existing infrastructures rather than replacing them. DESY and the University of Freiburg jointly lead the work package "Accounting Framework, Service Concept and Dashboard". At DESY, you will conduct independent scientific and conceptual work on the accounting model, federated service and interface architecture, reporting and dashboard concepts, and their validation across heterogeneous research infrastructures. Your focus will be on developing, evaluating and generalising models and architectural concepts for interoperable research infrastructures.

Scientifically analyse and abstract heterogeneous accounting requirements of research infrastructures and develop a unified, resource-oriented accounting and information model
Develop and evaluate a federated service, integration and information architecture for Accounting4NFDI, including concepts and specifications for interoperable APIs and exchange formats
Develop reporting and dashboard concepts based on the accounting framework, including suitable attributes, aggregations and evaluation logic for different stakeholder groups
Methodically validate accounting models, architecture and interface concepts through use cases, Proofs of Concept (PoCs) and integration scenarios, and derive generalisable findings for further development
Document, publish and present scientific and technical results; contribute to workshops, knowledge transfer and community engagement within NFDI, Base4NFDI and EOSC

Completed University degree in Computer Science, Physics, Mathematics or a comparable field, a PhD or equivalent experiences is helpful
Strong knowledge of data/information modelling, federated architectures, web APIs and interoperable exchange formats
Fluent German and English (project language)
Excellent analytical and conceptual skills; able to work independently on scientific/technical questions
Experience in interdisciplinary collaboration and documenting complex concepts
Strong communication and presentation skills; able to discuss and defend concepts across stakeholder groups
Familiarity with FAIR principles, Open Science and research infrastructures
Knowledge of NFDI, Base4NFDI and/or EOSC
Knowledge of OAuth2/OIDC and IAM4NFDI
Advantage: experience with reporting/dashboards or data harvesting/aggregation

Look forward to a unique working environment on our international research campus. Respectful cooperation and the well-being of our staff are central to us, with gender equality forming a key part of this commitment. To support work life balance we offer flexible working hours, variable part-time, job-sharing models and participation in mobile work (up to 50 %). You will benefit from our family-friendly and collegial atmosphere, our established health management and occupational pension provision. As a public funded employer, we offer you a secure workplace and facilitate your individual career with our comprehensive training and development opportunities. Remuneration is according to the regulations of the TV‑AVH. DESY offers its employees a financial supplement for a German job ticket (Deutschland-Ticket) at both locations.

DESY promotes equal opportunities, [diversity and inclusion](https://cockpit.as-mediendesign.de/jump1/133622/2/2544). We therefore welcome applications from people of all dimensions of diversity. The [professional development of women](https://cockpit.as-mediendesign.de/jump1/133622/2/2820) is very important to us and therefore we strongly encourage women to apply for the vacant position. Applications from severely disabled persons and those with equivalent status will be given preference if they are equally qualified ([sbv.desy.de](https://cockpit.as-mediendesign.de/jump1/133622/2/699)).
