The wages at Universities in Germany are fixed based on qualifications and number of years experience. We have absolutely no say in the salaries whatsoever. In the end, if we find someone for the position, it will be because they specifically want to come and work with our research group, and because they are very interested in superoptimisers/assembly language. The sort of candidate we are looking for isn't likely to be someone currently looking for work for a high salary in industrial engineering. The MPIR position is open to someone with an undergraduate degree, preferably in maths, computer science or electrical engineering (with computer specialisation). So far, people have offered to do it remotely, or without a degree. But it is essentially impossible for us to accommodate that. There is definitely the possibility that someone currently working in a Laboratoire in France on say GPU optimisation, someone who has just finished a degree in electrical engineering, working on chip design or embedded hardware, etc. or someone who has tried the industrial life but not found it suitable for them, will apply.
