Dr Kafoutchoni’s reading
The key phrase here is « direct contact »: this is not a standard portal application, and you need to go back to the PDF to understand the submission route. The second trap is to read it as a scholarship: this is a PhD job, so what matters most is fit with the topic, a solid systems background, and real research output potential. Since English is enough, do not waste time proving German proficiency that is not required. Prepare a short message now, with your CV, transcripts, and a paragraph linking your experience to kernels, hypervisors, and virtualization.
