We offer excellent primary and secondary benefits, a highly innovative and prospering academic ecosystem, and are situated in one of the strongest high-tech hotspots worldwide. A background in ultrafast dynamics and/or terahertz spectroscopy and/or nanofabrication and/or 2D materials will be particularly appreciated.

Job requirements

• Motivated researcher, with a PhD in physics, electrical engineering, or a comparable domain
• Experience with 2D layered materials and/or ultrafast microscopy techniques and/or nanofabrication of optoelectronic devices and/or terahertz spectroscopy
• Ability to conduct high quality academic research, reflected in demonstratable outputs.
• A team player who enjoys coaching PhD and Master’s students and working in a dynamic, interdisciplinary and open team.
• A proven ability to manage complex projects to completion on schedule.
