Description The newly established NYUAD Wireless Research Center at New York University Abu Dhabi, seeks to recruit a Post-Doctoral Associate (PDA) who will conduct research on the physical layer design of optical wireless communication systems as enablers of wireless access/backhaul of 6G and beyond networks. The PDA will be jointly supervised by Murat Uysal and Qurrat-Ul-Ain Nadeem. Principal Responsibilities The PDA will conduct research to design and develop optical wireless communication systems. This involves the development of mathematical models for signal transmission/reception, derivation of performance limits, algorithmic-level system design and performance evaluation via computer simulations and/or experimental means. The PDA is expected to actively disseminate results through publications in high-impact journals and presentations at leading international conferences. The PDA is expected to contribute to intellectual property development through patent filings and participate in international standardization efforts relevant to optical wireless technologies in coordination with academic and industrial collaborators. Qualifications Applicants must hold a PhD degree in electrical/electronics engineering, telecommunications or related field. Other requirements include: Strong background in communication theory, signal processing, wireless/optical communications, and communication system engineering Extensive experience in physical layer algorithm design and performance analysis  Proven track record of publications in relevant IEEE journals and conferences In addition to the above qualifications, it is highly desirable that the candidate has prior research experience in one or more of the following research topics: Free space optical communication Visible light communication DSP for coherent optical communication Machine learning and AI-native physical layer design Optical reconfigurable intelligent surfaces  Spatial mode multiplexing and orbital angular momentum The candidates will be considered until the position is filled. To be considered, all applicants must submit Cover letter Curriculum vitae with complete publication list BSc, MSc and PhD transcripts Research statement elaborating how you plan to contribute to the above research topics Contact details of at least three references. All attachments should be in PDF format. If you have any questions about the position, please email NYUAD Wireless Director Prof. Dr. Murat Uysal at murat.uysal@nyu.edu The terms of employment are highly attractive: a very competitive salary, generous monthly housing allowance, home-leave travel allowance, relocation benefits, and medical insurance and educational subsidies for dependents. The expected starting date for the appointment is January 1, 2026. About NYUAD Wireless The overarching goal of NYUAD Wireless is to establish a globally recognized research and innovation hub dedicated to advancing the frontiers of wireless communications and shaping the networks of the future. As a newly established center, it represents a timely initiative that aligns closely with the UAE’s vision to lead in the digital era. Through close collaboration with industry and other stakeholders, NYUAD Wireless seeks to pioneer advancements in wireless technologies by providing robust theoretical foundations for leveraging new spectrum bands and addressing practical challenges in the design of cutting-edge wireless access and backhaul solutions.  About NYUAD NYU Abu Dhabi is a degree-granting research university with a fully integrated liberal arts and science undergraduate program in the Arts, Sciences, Social Sciences, Humanities, and Engineering. NYU Abu Dhabi, NYU New York, and NYU Shanghai, form the backbone of NYU’s global network university, an interconnected network of portal campuses and academic centers across six continents that enable seamless international mobility of students and faculty in their pursuit of academic and scholarly activity. This global university represents a transformative shift in higher education, one in which the intellectual and creative endeavors of academia are shaped and examined through an international and multicultural perspective. As a major intellectual hub at the crossroads of the Arab world, NYUAD serves as a center for scholarly thought, advanced research, knowledge creation, and sharing, through its academic, research, and creative activities.

The University of Surrey is a global community of ideas and people, dedicated to life-changing education and research.  We are ambitious and have a bold vision of what we want to achieve - shaping ourselves into one of the best universities in the world, which we are achieving through the talents and endeavour of every employee. Our culture empowers people to achieve this aim and to collectively, and individually, make a real difference. The role The Faculty of Engineering and Physical Sciences at the University of Surrey is seeking to recruit a full-time researcher to the project: “Multi-Application BONDing” (MABOND), funded by the Aerospace Technology Institute (ATI) and GKN Aerospace. The role is funded until June 2027, with an extension to December 2027 likely to be granted. We are looking for someone to start as soon as possible. The successful candidate will work with a number of other UK-based industrial aerospace and academic partners within the project consortium, and assist in the characterisation of the strength and ageing of adhesively bonded joints for aerospace structures. Various composite and metallic adherends will be considered. The candidate will use their understanding of structural mechanics and materials science to identify the underlying failure mechanisms and generate an appropriate set of allowables for other engineers to use in future. The modelling they perform will capture the mechanics of failure from the molecular to the macroscopic scale. The Research Fellow’s role will be to undertake the majority of the experimental work (in collaboration with the University technical staff), and to assist with the numerical modelling that complements the experimental work. The analyses undertaken will include mechanical testing, surface chemical analysis (XPS, ToF-SIMS and ATR-FTIRS) and electron microscopy, and Finite Element Analysis of the bonded joints. The Research Fellow will also assist in reporting to the sponsor, and disseminating the results at conferences and in academic journals. About you We are looking for applicants who hold, or are near completion of, a PhD in a relevant subject. Relevant professional experience will also be considered. The successful applicant will demonstrate experience and knowledge of one or more of the following areas: - Strength of materials experimental work (such as tensile, compressive, double cantilever beam) carried out according to appropriate standard methods (ASTM, ISO). Modelling of structural failure using Finite Element Analysis (in particular bonded joints). Ageing mechanisms in polymers and polymer composites (thermal, moisture, etc.). Surface chemistry analysis using various experimental techniques. In addition to supporting the research project with internal and external collaborators, the position will serve as a platform for the Research Fellow to develop their career and profile as an independent researcher.. The successful candidate will work under the supervision of Prof John Watts in the School of Mechanical Engineering Sciences, and will join an existing team of academics and researchers on the project. Please note that this work will take place under UK Strategic Export Control PL9009, which may restrict the participation of nationals from certain countries. How to apply For informal enquiries please contact Professor John Watts FREng at j.watts@surrey.ac.uk or +44(0)1483 68 9617. Further details Job Description
