"Research Fellow, School of Computing"

Job Description

We are the NUS Avant Lab, led by Prof. Jingxian Wang (https://wangwireless.com/) in the Department of Computer Science, National University of Singapore. We invite applications for a Post-doctoral Researcher position.

Research focus

We build working systems in multi-modal AI and mobile sensing. For this position, the emphasis is on recognition and imaging/perception using radar and sonar (optionally with vision) on mobile UxV platforms (e.g., UGV/UAV/USV/AUV). The postdoc will work on end-to-end systems that combine learning + sensing + deployment, including dataset collection, model development, and real-world evaluation on platforms.

We engage with industry (e.g., Microsoft, Google Research, Amazon), publish top-tier papers, and release software for the research community.

We seek candidates who:

• Have a strong publication record in top-tier AI/robotics conferences and journals.
• Work effectively in a collaborative environment.
• Excel at deep technical thinking and strong execution (fast prototyping, rigorous evaluation).
• Have outstanding programming skills and hands-on experience in experimentation/implementation.

Qualifications

• PhD in Computer Science / Electrical Engineering (or expected within 6 months).
• Strong experience with C/C++ and/or Python (and/or Java).
• Demonstrated research experience in multi-modal learning and perception, e.g., recognition, imaging, tracking, especially with radar and/or sonar. (Vision-only is acceptable if you have strong multi-modal experience.)

Compensation & term

• Salary range: SGD 90,000 – 100,000 per year
• Duration: 1–2 years
• Expected start date: early 2026
