Research Engineer (Structural Health Monitoring)

We are seeking a motivated Research Engineer (Structural Health Monitoring) to join a multidisciplinary research team working on AI-enabled solutions for industry operations and maintenance.

The successful candidate will conduct research and development in sensor-based structural health monitoring, with a particular focus on vibration and temperature monitoring and digital signal processing for the purpose of condition assessment and anomaly detection.

The position requires hands-on experience with sensors and data acquisition systems, and practical experience in relevant research or industrial projects.

 

Key Responsibilities

  • Conduct research on structural health monitoring and condition monitoring of industrial mechanical components.
  • Investigate, evaluate, and implement suitable vibration and temperature sensors, particularly non-invasive sensing solutions.
  • Design and implement sensor mounting, calibration, and data acquisition setups for laboratory experiments and potential field deployments.
  • Conduct experimental studies to evaluate sensor performance, measurement accuracy, reliability, and robustness under different operating conditions.

 

Requirements

  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Mechatronics, Instrumentation Engineering, or a related discipline.
  • Practical experience with sensors, instrumentation, data acquisition systems, and experimental measurements.
  • Hands-on experience in structural health monitoring, condition monitoring, vibration analysis, or fault diagnosis of mechanical systems will be a big advantage.
  • Knowledge and practical experience in digital signal processing, particularly for vibration signals and sensor-based monitoring applications will be a big advantage.
  • Strong analytical, problem-solving, and experimental troubleshooting skills.
  • Good communication skills and ability to work collaboratively with multidisciplinary research teams and industry partners.
