Research/Job Area- Fiber-optic communications (Mechanical, Maritime and Materials Engineering)
Location- Dutch Institute of Systems and Control (DISC), Delft University of Technology, Netherlands
Eligibility/Qualification– The applicant has earned (or is about to earn) a very good doctoral degree and has research experience in the field of fiber-optic communications. A good command of the English language is expected.
Job/Position Description-
This position is part of the ERC Starting Grant NEUTRINO of Dr. Sander Wahls. Starting Grants are highly competitive and granted solely based on scientific excellence. The overarching goal of NEUTRINO is to push nonlinear Fourier transforms from being a mainly theoretical tool into engineering practice.
Research group is looking for a postdoctoral researcher who has a strong background in fiber-optic communications. The successful candidate will investigate novel fiber-optic transceiver concepts based on nonlinear Fourier transforms, which provide a unique new way to deal with nonlinearity. No prior experience with nonlinear Fourier transforms is expected. The research will be carried out in close collaboration with a team of currently five other researchers working on numerical algorithms and other related topics related to nonlinear Fourier transforms.
Level: Doctorate
Working hours: 38-40 hours weekly
Contract: two years
Salary: 3255 – 4274 euros monthly (full-time basis)
