hela Sverige We are currently looking for a PhD student to join the Collaborative Autonomous Systems unit at RISE. Are you passionate about shaping the future of communication technologies and developing cutting-edge optical systems for 6G? Then this opportunity might be for you.
RISE is entering an exciting phase where we, together with academia and industry, lead research projects that shape tomorrow's society. In this project, you will work with advanced technologies, engage in international collaborations, and contribute to Sweden's leadership in photonics and telecommunications.
About Us At the Collaborative Autonomous Systems unit, we operate at the intersection of research and industry, focusing on future-proof technologies. In close collaboration with Umeå University and leading Swedish industrial partners, we run projects that combine academic excellence with practical application.
RISE offers a unique research environment with access to state-of-the-art laboratories, such as the Kista High-Speed Transmission Lab and the fiber tower in Hudiksvall. We are an inclusive and diverse team that values collaboration, innovation, and personal development.
About the Role As a PhD student, you will:
Develop and characterize HCF-based (hollow core fibers) optical systems with the goal of achieving data rates exceeding 200 Gbps
Explore the integration of HCF and modulator technologies for ultra-low latency communication systems
Collaborate with researchers and engineers from RISE, Umeå University, and industry to design and test next-generation optical transceivers
Disseminate research findings through publications, conferences, and public engagement
You will be enrolled in the doctoral program at Umeå University and your primary workplace will be located in Kista with occasional travel within the project.
Who Are You? To succeed in this role, you should:
Meet the basic eligibility requirements for doctoral studies (e.g., a Master's degree in Engineering Physics, Photonics, or a related field)
Have strong practical laboratory skills
Be communicative and proficient in English, both spoken and written
Enjoy collaboration, be adaptable, and have a curious mindset
Merits include:
Experience with optical communication systems
Programming skills (LabView, C++, MATLAB)
Understanding of semiconductor technology and system integration
Are We a Good Match? At RISE, you'll have the opportunity to conduct research that makes a real impact - both for industry and society. You'll be part of a project with a strong international network, access to advanced technology, and a team that supports your development.
We offer a cutting-edge research environment with access to unique test facilities and advanced technical infrastructure. Here, you can combine academic research with industrial application in close collaboration with leading stakeholders. You'll be part of an inclusive work culture that values work-life balance and is strongly committed to diversity and gender equality. We also offer excellent development opportunities, both within academia and industry, to support your long-term career.
Welcome with your application! If you're curious to learn more, feel free to contact Hanna Müller, Unit Manager, at +46 10 228 44 30. The application deadline is October 5, and selection and interviews will take place continuously during and after the application period.
