    1. Design, assembly, and testing of electromechanical set-ups;
    2. Software/programming languages (e.g. C/C++, Labview, Matlab, etc.);
    3. Electronic instruments (e.g., oscilloscopes, multimeter, data logger, analyzers);
    4. Universal electromechanical testing machines.
  4. Good knowledge of electronic and mechanical CAD software;
  5. Ability to work collaboratively in an interdisciplinary environment;
  6. Efficient organization, storage, and reporting of research data;
  7. Good command of spoken and written English.
ADDITIONAL SKILLS
  1. PhD in areas related to electronic engineering, microtechnology, mechatronics, robotics will be a significant added value;
  2. Creative and strong attitude toward problem-solving;
  3. Good communication skills;
  4. Strong time and priority management skills.
COMPENSATION & BENEFITS
  • Competitive salary package for international standards (Salary can include bonus option depending on your role and contract);
