Singapore NTU (Nanyang Technology University- MainOffice-HR) Full time

We are seeking an exceptional researcher to join our team at Nanyang Technology University (NTU). The successful candidate will be part of a collaborative research environment focusing on harnessing randomness and chaos in complex disordered photonic systems. Key responsibilities include designing high-performance heterostructures, conducting novel designs and theoretical analysis, and supervising PhD and undergraduate students.

The ideal candidate should have a strong background in physics, optical engineering, or related fields with more than 3 years of relevant research experience. Proficiency in design and characterization of semiconductors, optoelectronic device measurement, and defect testing is also essential. Excellent communication skills, both written and verbal, are required for effective collaboration and manuscript preparation.

This role offers the opportunity to work on cutting-edge research projects, contribute to fundamental knowledge, and develop innovative solutions. We offer a competitive salary range of SGD $80,000 - $120,000 per annum, commensurate with experience.

Please note that only shortlisted candidates will be notified. If you are a motivated and talented researcher looking to take your career to the next level, we encourage you to apply.
