Job Description

To bring computing power to the edge and to make the cloud sustainable, various paradigms for energy-efficient computing are emerging. These paradigms, for example neuromorphic, wave-based, probabilistic, and in-memory computing, are based on a wide variety of physical processes, materials, architectures, and algorithms. For effective implementation, these aspects need to be mapped, integrated with current technology, and coupled to technological use cases.

In this two-year project, a postdoctoral researcher will join forces with academic and industrial consortium partners to map how emerging computing paradigms can be implemented. The results of the various research projects in the consortium and developments reported in the literature will be monitored and analyzed. Where feasible and opportune, proof-of-principle experiments will be conducted together with various consortium partners. You have a background in hands-on (wafer-scale) device fabrication, preferably based on processing of advanced materials.

Your profile

  • hold a PhD degree in materials science, (applied) physics, electrical engineering, or a related field and have experience in research, which is apparent from publications in reputable academic journals, presentations in international scientific conferences, and other academic activities;
  • have a strong interest (and preferably, experience) in joint projects between academia and industry;
  • have vision and ambitious drive (seeing opportunities and possibilities, showing ambition);
  • have a track record in applied research within a multidisciplinary environment;
  • have good communication skills and an excellent command of English.

Our offer
