PhD Position in Humanoid Robotics

We are seeking a highly motivated PhD student to join our research team in the field of humanoid robotics. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to work on cutting-edge research projects, develop innovative algorithms, and collaborate with a team of experts in the field.

The PhD student will be part of the Division of Dynamics at Chalmers tekniska högskola, which is a world-class research institution with a strong focus on mechanical engineering and maritime sciences. The division has a broad range of research activities, including robotics, artificial intelligence, and machine learning.

The PhD position is funded by the Wallenberg AI, Autonomous Systems and Software Program (WASP), which is a major national initiative for strategically motivated basic research, education, and faculty recruitment. The program addresses research on artificial intelligence and autonomous systems acting in collaboration with humans, adapting to their environment through sensors, information, and knowledge, and forming intelligent systems-of-systems.

The PhD student will have the opportunity to contribute to the development of numerically stable and efficient computational algorithms, their implementation and testing with computer programs, both in simulation and real robotic systems. The research will touch upon various topics, including multi-body dynamics, optimal control theory, machine learning, and robotics and artificial intelligence in general.

The PhD student will be part of a dynamic and international research environment, with opportunities for collaboration with industry partners and participation in national and international conferences and workshops.

Responsibilities

  • Pursue doctoral studies in the field of humanoid robotics
  • Develop scientific concepts and communicate research results verbally and in writing to the scientific community
  • Contribute to the development of computational algorithms and their implementation and testing
  • Participate in research activities, including collaboration with industry partners and participation in conferences and workshops

Requirements

  • Master's degree in a relevant field, such as robotics, artificial intelligence, or mechanical engineering
  • Strong background in programming languages, such as C++ or Python
  • Excellent communication and teamwork skills
  • Ability to work independently and as part of a team

What We Offer

  • Full-time temporary employment for 5 years, including teaching or other departmental duties corresponding to 20% of working hours
  • Salary according to current salary agreements
  • Opportunities for professional development and growth
  • Dynamic and international research environment
