Description - This position offers a unique opportunity to build on recent advances in the lab-STICC (University of Brest - France) in the area of radiofrequency-based sensors with applications to the detection of degradation of materials (i.e. corrosion). Our lab seeks a highly skilled and energetic postdoctoral candidate with research and publication experience in the field of antennas and RF devices. As part of a French ANR project, the main missions of the recruited person concern the electromagnetic modeling of antenna and radiofrequency systems, the aim being to include RF sensitive parts in innovative battery-less RFID sensors. You will also have to propose design strategies, launch manufacturing and demonstrate innovative concepts. An experience in the field of material science would also be appreciated.
Qualifications :
· Strong skills in analytical methods, numerical validation (HFSS, CST, COMSOL,..), fabrication, and experimental design
· Experience in laboratory work and R&D of RF systems, preferably wireless communication and sensing networks.
· Publication record in high impact factor journals
· Experience with mentorship and supervision of graduate and undergraduate students
· Experience in contributing to the planning, writing, and execution of grant proposals
· Experience with relevant software (e.g. C/C++, Python, Origin, ...) and equipment (VNAs, ..)
· PhD degree in Electrical Engineering, Engineering Physics, or a related field.
· Strong verbal, written, and organizational skills
Salary - 2600 euros/month
