The posting

The School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering (EEE) is a founding School of the Nanyang Technological University. Built on a culture of excellence, the School is renowned for its high academic standards and research. With over 3,000 undergraduates and 2,000 graduate students, it is one of the largest EEE schools in the world and ranks 4th in the field of Electrical and Electronic Engineering in the 2025 QS World University Rankings by Subjects. The key objective is to support efforts to advance cutting-edge research in photonic integration for quantum sensing, neuromorphic computing, and chip-scale laser systems.

For more details, please view https://www.ntu.edu.sg/eee.

We are seeking a Senior Research Fellow to lead the design and development of chip-scale laser systems for quantum sensing under Project Apollo. The role involves integrated photonic device design, fabrication process development, and system characterization. The candidate will mentor junior researchers, coordinate with industry partners, and contribute to high-impact publications.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Lead integrated laser design and quantum photonic device development
  • Oversee large-scale photonic integration and foundry coordination
  • Direct device and system characterization; mentor team members
  • Mentor and supervise junior researchers, PhD students, and research assistants within the group.
  • Coordinate research activities with industry partners (e.g., DSO, Samsung) and academic collaborators.
  • Prepare high-impact publications and present research findings at international conferences.
  • Contribute to research grant proposals and funding applications.
  • Ensure compliance with project milestones, deliverables, and reporting requirements.

Job Requirements:

  • PhD (for Research Fellow and above equivalent) qualification degree in Electrical Engineering, Physics, Photonics, Optical Engineering, or a closely related field.
  • At least 4 years of relevant postdoctoral experience in integrated photonics, laser design, or quantum photonic systems.
  • Good written and oral communication skills.
  • Proficiency in photonic simulation tools such as Ansys Lumerical, Tidy3D, and layout tools such as GDSfactory, KLayout, or equivalent.
  • Strong programming skills in Python and MATLAB for data analysis, device modeling, and automation.
  • Demonstrated publication track record in high-impact journals (e.g., Nature Photonics, Optica, ACS Photonics, or equivalent).
  • Hands-on cleanroom fabrication experience including lithography, etching, thin-film deposition, and device packaging.
  • Interpersonal skills (e.g. ability to work independently, develop solutions under strict timelines, meticulous attention to detail, excellent organizational and time management skills).

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
