Description

As part of the Electrical Engineering program of the Engineering Division and the Center of Artificial Intelligence and Robotics (CAIR) at NYU Abu Dhabi the group of Prof. Kyriakopoulos seeks to improve the autonomy of Field Robotic systems by fusing control theoretic and machine intelligence approaches. Formal models are directly applied in real experimental facilities.

We are seeking one (1) motivated Post-Doctoral Associate to join the team and make significant contributions to the field, on topics including (i) Control, Optimization and/or Machine Learning for Sensor-based Robotic Motion Planning and Control and (ii) Autonomous Robotic Systems (Marine, Ground): Complex Multi-body Systems.

The ideal candidate has to be self-motivated and can work independently, to have a passion for Robotics fundamental aspects and applications, and to be willing to extent to new horizons. Prior proven work experience on combination of analytic and experimental approaches on autonomous robotic systems is highly desirable.

The Postdoc will be based at NYU Abu Dhabi and will report directly to Prof. in close collaboration with other researchers, PhD students, and undergraduate research assistants. The Postdoc will engage with our regular collaborators at local institutions in the UAE and abroad.

Applicants must hold a PhD degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Computer Science, or any other related field.

Excellent communication skills in English, ability to work in multidisciplinary teams, and scientific creativity are essential.

Our team offers multidisciplinary training with a high degree of academic freedom among various high-impact translational projects. The recruits will work in a multidisciplinary environment consisting of PhD-level scientists, graduate students and undergraduate students, ensuring the recruits learn valuable skills in writing manuscripts and grant proposals, advising fellow researchers, and establishing collaborations across disciplines.

The terms of employment are very competitive and the position provides a salary higher than internationally competitive rates for post-doctoral positions, in addition to substantial benefits (generous housing, transportation and travel allowances, educational subsidies for children), together with full health insurance and retirement contributions. The UAE does not levy income tax.
