University College Cork, Tyndall National Institute invites applications for an appointment as Postgraduate Researcher to investigate and develop very low power, intelligent, easily configurable and deployable wireless sensor networks for structural monitoring and to deploy the systems as part of a Framework seven funded project in structural monitoring.
Tyndall National Institute (Tyndall), www.tyndall.ie, is Ireland s largest research centre, specialising in defined areas of Information and Communications Technology (ICT). The mission for Tyndall can be summarised as follows: To be a Centre of Excellence in Information and Communications Technology research, development and graduate training, recognised internationally for the quality of its outputs in materials, devices and systems, and its creation of new opportunities for Ireland s economic growth.
Within Tyndall and the Department of Microelectronic Engineering (http://www.ucc.ie/en/microeng/ ), the WSN team and Embedded Systems Group are developing wireless sensor network solutions for a variety of applications and deployment scenarios. The teams have a strong background in developing low power, versatile miniaturised embedded systems, hardware-software co-design, as well as system deployment and test. http://www.tyndall.ie/mai/wsn.htm
Role.
Reporting to the project leaders, the candidate will:
Be responsible for the system specification of the necessary microsystem platforms incorporating the necessary communications, processing sensor interfacing and power supply conditioning necessary to enable the GENESI deployment.
Development and Implementation of the necessary WSN hardware and firmware.
Implement the manufacture and deployment of the necessary WSN Infrastructure to enable structural monitoring systems development (power aware configuration automation, etc) and deployment of innovative, very low power, scalable wireless sensor networks hardware and software.
Contribute to and/or initiate peer reviewed scientific publications as required.
Travel to project meetings to present technical results and project updates.
Assist senior researchers in developing project deliverables.
The ideal candidate will have a 1st Class Honours degree in a relevant discipline and relevant project experience in the development of Microsystems hardware and firmware. Knowledge of the development/deployment of wireless sensor systems, power aware networking, low power embedded system design (hardware-software co-design) would be advantageous. S/He should have excellent communication skills. The successful candidate will be a key member of a team with expertise in low power embedded system design, wireless sensor networks (protocols, coding, networking), design automation for wireless sensor networks.
Experience with relevant hardware design/simulation tools, and strong programming (microcontroller) skills are considered essential skills for the applicant. A proven ability to work well in a team, project management and to lead small teams is desirable. The need to work flexible hours is required and to be adaptable in working practice is essential.
Application forms must be completed and are available from: http://www.tyndall.ie/careers/
