#TRANSFORMINGTOMORROW: MAKE A DIFFERENCE WITH US.
IT:U is Austria‘s first public interdisciplinary university dedicated to digital transformation for the benefit of our society, economy and environment. Join us as a
Postdoctoral Researcher Embedded ML and Smart Sensors*
and contribute to cutting edge research combining embedded machine learning, signal processing, and smart sensing systems, with applications in autonomous robotics, drones, and space technologies.
Key research topics include:
* Embedded ML (Spiking and non-spiking network) with particular emphasis on attention-based models
* Neuromorphic computing and ML deployment on digital and neuromorphic processors
* TinyML and EdgeAI and ultra-low-power inference for resource-constrained systems
* Techniques such as quantization, pruning, knowledge distillation, and novel architectures beyond CNNs
* Real-time embedded signal processing for perception and decision-making
Additional responsibilities:
* Support and contribute to teaching activities and student supervision, including PhD students
* Assist in the coordination of lab activities
* Actively participate in the preparation of research proposals and grant applications
* Lead and co-author high-impact publications
Your background:
* PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field
* Deep expertise in system-level design and the ability to develop functional hardware/software prototypes (PCB design is a plus)
* Strong knowledge of ML algorithms (including spiking networks) and compression techniques for real-time processing on embedded platforms
* Experience in hardware-software co-design for embedded and neuromorphic platforms
* Demonstrated ability to publish in top-tier IEEE journals and conferences (e.g., IEEE IoT Jorunal, IEEE Sensors Jorunal, CVPR, ICRA, IROS, NeurIPS, etc.)
* A strong publication track record is essential and should reflect your contributions to the field
What you can expect:
* Opportunity to collaborate on cutting edge prototypes and real-world demonstrators
* Strong academic and industrial network across robotics, embedded AI, and sensing technologies
* Unique opportunity to help build a new university
* Interdisciplinary research environment and state of the art infrastructure
* Free parking or Climate Ticket Austria (excellent public transport connection)
* Flexible working hours through a flextime model and the option for home office
