Description
We are seeking a highly motivated and skilled Post-Doctoral Researcher to join our multidisciplinary team. The successful candidate will be involved in real-world research between Halmstad University and Volvo Cars AB, quantifying the impact of sensor surface contamination on signal performance and contributing to the development of more robust advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) and autonomous drive (AD) systems. This is a two-year, fully funded position, possibly extending by one year if additional external funding is received. The project is entitled Quantifying Sensor Surface Contamination for Safe Vehicle Automation (QonSense).



As a joint initiative between Halmstad University & Volvo Cars AB, research and testing will be carried out equally at the ECH (Halmstad University) and the state-of-the-art wind tunnel facilities of Volvo Cars AB (Gothenburg).

Principal Duties
The duties will be:

- Research and Development: Conduct applied research in the field of sensor technology, signal processing, and vehicle automation. Design and develop experiments and methodologies to quantify the impact of surface contamination on sensor functionality.
- Data Analysis and Modeling: Analyze sensor data and co-develop predictive models to understand the effects of environmental factors on sensor performance.
- Collaboration: Work collaboratively with a team of researchers, engineers, and industry partners in multiple locations across Western Sweden. Participate in project meetings and facilitate knowledge transfer among all project partners and stakeholders.
- Dissemination: Present research findings at conferences and workshops. Publish research results in high-impact journals.

Qualifications
The candidate must hold a Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Physics, or a related field, with experience in at least one of the following: sensor technology, signal processing, radar or vehicle automation. A post-doctoral position requires that the doctoral degree has been awarded within three years of the application deadline. Under special circumstances, leave due to illness, parental leave or similar circumstances, the doctoral degree can have been completed earlier.

Strong analytical and problem-solving skills are required, with direct experience in making lab-based measurements and performing sensor data collection and data analysis. Excellent communication skills in English, both written and verbal, are required; the working language for the project is English.

In addition to the above requirements, any of the following criteria are desirable for candidates to have and will form part of the assessment for potential candidates:

- Excellent networking and teamwork ability.
- Practical in-lab experience with hands-on experimental design and execution.
- Experience with machine learning techniques and their application in sensor data analysis.
- Knowledge of automotive industry standards and practices.
- Prior experience working in multidisciplinary and international research teams.
- Experience with wind tunnel facilities.
- Experience with anechoic chamber facilities.
- Fluid dynamics knowledge.
- Radar target simulation experience.

Salary
Salary is to be settled by negotiation. The application should include a statement of the salary level required by the candidate.

Application
Applications should be sent via Halmstad University's recruitment system Varbi (see link on this page).
