Apply locations NTU Main Campus, Singapore time type Full time posted on Posted Yesterday job requisition id R00021570

We are seeking a Research Associate to lead experimental research on a three-axis atom interferometer serving as a non-drifting accelerometer at CQT, NTU. The role involves precision measurement development, system integration, and technology translation to navigation applications. The successful candidate will collaborate closely with a multidisciplinary team and external partners.

Responsibilities:

• Design, optimise, and operate ultra-cold atom interferometry experiments for multi-axis acceleration measurements.

• Develop methods to suppress drift and enhance sensor stability for extended-duration measurements.

• Integrate atom interferometer systems with control electronics, laser subsystems, and vacuum apparatus.

• Supervise and mentor junior researchers and students in experimental techniques.

• Publish results in high-impact journals and present at international conferences.

• Coordinate with industry and government collaborators to translate laboratory systems into field-deployable prototypes.

Requirements:

• Master’s in Physics, Engineering, or related discipline.

• Expertise in atom interferometry and quantum sensing systems.

• Proven record of high-quality publications.

• Experience in multi-axis inertial measurement and cold atom experimental platforms.

We regret to inform that only shortlisted candidates will be notified.
