We are looking for motivated postdoctoral researchers with the background in experimental Physics or Electrical/Optical engineering. Experience and working knowledge in GNSS related field and/or atomic clocks is necessary. Software skills in Matlab/Python/Autocad are a plus. The successful candidates will involve in research on the novel and alternative GNSS methods, the development of AI schemes, in building of the precision timing laboratory, focused on the traceable timescale, and in novel atomic clocks research. The postdoctoral fellows will be given opportunity to participate in conferences and encourage to build collaborations.
The position involves research activities in the precision timing and frequency area. The selected postdoc will be directly working with the Principal Investigator, focusing on the novel methods and challenges in GNSS research and niche applications.
The position can be extended up to a period of 3 years, on a yearly renewal basis based on the performance. The opportunities to attend conferences and build connections will be encouraged. This is an excellent merit opportunity to a postdoc who is looking to involve in the PNTF lab-building and collaborations with the industries and the PNT labs around the world.
Candidates must have completed their Ph.D. in Physics or electrical/optical engineering at the start of the appointment. The appointment is initially for one year with the possibility of renewal up to three years, upon successful performance.
Application shall include the CV, list of publications, statement of research, and arrange three letters of recommendations to be submitted directly, no later than April 15th 2022.
