Singapore NTU (Nanyang Technology University- MainOffice-HR) Full time
The Earth Observatory of Singapore (EOS) at NanyangTechnological University seeks a Research Fellow to integrategeological and geophysical observations-combining space geodesy anddense-array seismology-to advance the understanding of fundamentalearthquake physics.

The candidate will workunder the supervision of Prof. Wei ShengJi and collaborate withresearchers on this 3-year project, which aims to provide aholistic understanding of the fundamental physics of earthquakes byintegrating geodesy and dense array data. The geodesy componentfocuses on data acquisition and processing to producehigh-resolution deformation maps and determine fault geometry. Thegeophysics component emphasizes rupture imaging for targetearthquakes and interpreting results to uncover key physicalprocesses. We will be hiring research staff and students for thisproject, making it an exciting time to join ourteam.

KeyResponsibilities:
  • Acquireand process multi-source seismic and geodetic data for earthquakeevents.
  • Conduct forward modeling and inversionusing geodetic and seismicobservations.
  • Integrate datasets (3D surfacedeformation, geodetic fault geometry, back-projection rupturespeeds) to constrain finite fault models capturing complex ruptureprocesses.
  • Compare rupture models withlab-based rock failure experiments and numerical simulations torefine understanding of fundamental earthquakephysics.
  • Advance fundamental earthquake physicsand by translate scientific discoveries into engineering strategiesthat mitigate future seismic risks.
  • Publishpeer-reviewed scientific papersannually.
  • Present research findings atinternational conferences each year.
  • Provideco-mentorship for a PhD student and a ResearchAssistant.
  • Collaborate with staff and students,Project PIs, and multiple international faculty as part of theproject.


JobRequirements:
  • Ph.D. ingeoscience, geophysics, geodesy, natural hazards, computationalmodeling, or a related field.
  • Demonstratedexpertise in geophysics and numerical modeling, with knowledge onearthquake science.
  • Familiarity with analyzinggeophysical and geologic datasets (e.g., geodetic, seismic,geological, marine geophysics, gravity) and understanding ofgeophysical inversion methods.
  • Proficiency inprogramming with Python or MATLAB; familiarity with Fortran or C isa plus.
  • Proven track record of publishingresearch relevant to the position in Tier 1journals.
  • As the position requires stakeholderengagement in English, candidate must be fluent inEnglish.
  • Ability to work independently onresearch projects while contributing to a collaborative teamenvironment.
