Research Opportunity in Coding for Energy-Efficient and Secure Communications

DTU Electro, Department of Electrical and Photonics Engineering, invites candidates to apply for a research position in Coding for energy-efficient and secure communications. The successful candidate will contribute to solving issues of energy-efficiency, reliability, and security in future communication systems.

The Coding & Visual Communication Group conducts research in the area of coding for communications systems. This includes error-correcting coding and coding for shaping and security, as well as high-bandwidth solutions for visual communication technology. Current research includes coding for optical, wireless, and satellite communication, as well as for quantum channels.

Responsibilities and Qualifications

You will collaborate in a research group with both academic and industrial backgrounds in a supportive and international environment.

The research interests and expertise of the applicants should be within one or more of the following coding areas:

  • Error-correcting coding for optical, wireless, or satellite communication
  • Coding for quantum communication, e.g., information reconciliation for QKD for secure communication
  • Energy-efficient communication, including energy-efficient coding
  • Joint coding as error-correction and shaping or joint source-channel coding in visual communication

We are looking for a candidate with a focused expertise in one or more of these areas as well as a creative and innovative approach to the topics.

As an integral part of the job, the candidate shall carry out research-based educational tasks. The applicant shall be able to teach within the areas of Coding, Communication, and Cyber Technology for engineering studies (BSc, MSc, and PhD) including supervision of thesis work. The teaching will be based on a match of the teaching activities in the group and section with the background and interests of the candidate.

The candidate will be responsible for the teaching of courses. DTU employs two working languages: Danish and English. You are expected to be fluent in at least one of these languages, and in time, expected to master both.

As formal qualification, you must hold a PhD degree (or equivalent). If you are applying for the associate professor position, you should also have academic qualifications equivalent to those obtained by holding an assistant professorship and documented didactic/pedagogic training.

Salary and Terms of Employment

The appointment will be based on the collective agreement with the Danish Confederation of Professional Associations. The allowance will be agreed upon with the relevant union. The position is a full-time position.

The assistant professor position is part of DTU's Tenure Track program.
