Postdoc researcher position in Microsystems Technology - Digital manufacturing of soft and compliant microsystems - Hiring in process/Finished, not possible to apply

Temporary full-time employment 18 months with access as soon as possible or by agreement

The Division of Microsystems Engineering at the Department of Materials Science and Engineering conducts research on the use of microsystems in a variety of scientific fields, from biology to space technology. Common to all research is the desire to investigate how the properties of systems change when they are made smaller, and how these properties can be used to create simpler, cheaper and above all more functional technology.

Work duties: Research and development of digital technologies for miniaturized soft and extensible microsystems with a special focus on systems that use low-temperature alloys and those that are liquids. The tasks also include supervision of students in projects related to research issues. Some participation in other teaching may also occur.

Qualification requirements: Doctoral degree in materials science or microsystem technology. We require solid knowledge and experience in heterogeneous extensible microsystems that use low temperature alloys or those that are liquids.

We require good oral and written proficiency in English.

Additional qualifications: It is of high merit to have experience in research and development of digital technologies for miniaturized soft and extensible microsystems with a special focus on systems that use liquid alloys.

Application: The application must contain a description of previous research experience, CV, copies of diplomas and other relevant documents. We are happy to see that you provide information about reference persons or attach a letter of recommendation.

Salary: Individual salary

Starting date: As soon as possible or by appointment.

Type of employment: Temporary employment 18 months

Scope of employment: 100%
