Postdoctral Research Associates

Nanoscale Energy Transport:

We are hiring a postdoctoral research associate position to work on a federally sponsored fundamental science research project that is broadly focused on nanoscale energy transport, optical and electronic properties of nanomaterials, plasmonics, metamaterials, and general electromagnetic radiation.

The candidate should have a Ph.D. in mechanical engineering or a closely related field and research experience in the fields that are related to the focus areas of the position. In addition, the candidate should have a proven track record of publications in relevant journals and conferences. Good written and spoken communication skills are required.

Preferred qualifications include strong design,simulation, and analytical capabilities, as well as hands-on nanoscale fabrication in cleanroom. Must demonstrate self-motivation and strong teamwork skills. US citizenship highly preferred.

Laser Materials & Machining:

We are hiring a postdoctoral research associate position to work on a federally sponsored fundamental science research project that is broadly focused on optical and electronic properties of laser materials, optical characterization, general electromagnetic radiation, and nano/micro-machining.

The candidate should have a Ph.D. in mechanical engineering or a closely related field and research experience in the fields that are related to the focus areas of the position. In addition, the candidate should have a proven track record of publications in relevant journals and conferences. Good written and spoken communication skills are required.

Preferred qualifications include strong design,simulation, and analytical capabilities, as well as hands-on optical table instrumentation, safety, and operation. Must demonstrate self-motivation and strong teamwork skills. US citizenship is optional; Green Card and F1 Visas preferred. 

To inquire about and apply for the postdoctoral position, submit your cover letter, curriculum vitae, and one publication sample through email.
