Heriot-Watt University: Multiple Research Associate positions 6093 views

Heriot-Watt University: 08 Research Associate positions

Position 1: Research Associate/Robotics Software Engineer

The School of Engineering and Physical Sciences and the school of Mathematics and Computer Science are recruiting a robotics software engineer to work on developing high impact robotics demonstrators of our research targeting industrial sponsors and the public.

Position 2: Research Associate in Advanced Optical Communication and Imaging Lab (AOCIL)

Recruiting a Research Associate to work on a project funded by the Quantum Communication hub Partnership Resource Fund (PRF) and led by the AOCIL. The successful candidate will carry out experimental investigation on high speed secure optical communication system based on optical code scrambling and signal processing technologies.

Position 3: Research Associate in Ultrafast Nonlinear Optics

Recruiting a Research Associate to work on the XSOL project, funded by the European Research Council under a Consolidator Grant. Candidate will join a team that will be exploring extreme strong-field physics at the fundamental limits of spatio-temporal confinement by scaling soliton-driven light sources in hollow capillary fibres by two orders of magnitude in power compared to the state of the art.

Position 4: Research Associate in Deep Learning and Optimisation for Extreme-Scale Computational Imaging

The BASP group is developing cutting-edge research on all aspects of computational imaging, from theory and algorithms, to applications in astronomy and medicine and are currently recruiting multiple postdoctoral research associates for research on deep learning and optimisation for extreme-scale computational imaging.

Position 5: Research Associate in Medical Devices Manufacturing (Maternity cover)

Recruiting a Research Associate to work within the MDMC (Medical Device Manufacturing Centre), which is part-funded by European Regional Development Fund and part-funded by the Edinburgh and South East Scotland City Deal.

Position 6: Research Associate in Ground Stations for Satellite Quantum Communications

Recruiting a Research Associate to investigate the design, modelling, construction, and testing of the UK’s main optical ground station for satellite quantum communications within the UK QuComms Hub project.

Position 7: Research Associate in Semiconductor Spin Qubits in Quantum Technology

The Quantum Photonics Laboratory seeks a talented and motivated scientist to undertake research on quantum technology with individual spin-active defects in SiC.

Position 7: KTP Associate Laser Engineer

Recruiting a KTP Associate who will rapidly embrace the body of knowledge vested in the Heriot-Watt research team in high-power mid-infrared slab lasers and will grasp the technical challenges of optimising every single design parameter to achieve reliable, high-power laser operation of these specialist lasers.

Position 8: Research Development Support

Seeking to appoint to the role of Research Development Support in Research Engagement Directorate to support the Research Development Team. The post holder will be line managed by the Research Development Manager.
