Roles & Responsibilities

Project Overview

We are seeking a highly motivated and creative Postdoctoral Associate to contribute to cutting-edge research and development in the field of robotics and soft robotics. We pursue the application of robots in service tasks (e.g., cleaning) and explore the use of soft robotics technologies in this field, for improving interactions with the environment and with humans. We seek for expertise in the design of soft robots and in robot control.

Responsibilities
  • Perform fundamental and applied research on soft robotics, with particular emphasis on design, fabrication, and control of soft robotic arms for service tasks, including experimental research with robot prototyping and testing.
  • Develop novel designs, control strategies, algorithms, sensory feedback systems to enable effective and adaptive manipulation.
  • Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams to integrate mechanical, electrical, and software components into functional robotic systems.
  • Conduct experimental validation and performance evaluation of developed soft robotic manipulators.
  • Participate in the applied projects with lab's industrial partners.
  • Present research results at top international workshops and conferences, exhibits as well as internal project meetings.
  • Write and co-author articles for publication in tier-1 interdisciplinary journals and top conferences.
Requirements

The successful candidates must hold a Ph.D. in computer science, mechanical engineering, robotics or a related field, and have experience in interactive systems and/or soft robotics. Ability of working in a multidisciplinary team environment, problem solving skills and high creativity are very welcome.
