Electronics – Tenure Track Assistant Professor/Associate Professor

Aarhus University invites applications for a position as Tenure Track Assistant Professor/Associate Professor in electronics. The University seeks exceptional, innovative and visionary Engineering researchers to be part of its build-up to strengthen and develop ECE at Aarhus University.

Job Description

The Tenure Track Assistant Professor/Associate Professor position is expected to engage in independent research and is encouraged to establish a research group based on external funding. Moreover, teaching classes (both existing or development of new) in our educational programs at both undergraduate and graduate level, as well as supervising bachelor's and/or master's thesis students is expected.

Applicant Profile

Applicants are expected to have a solid background in electronics for sensors and instrumentation, with experience in low-signal and low-power design, sensor technologies, analog front ends, mixed-signal systems, and transducer-to-system data acquisition, control, and embedded integration. Experience with system architecture, digitalization, and IoT-enabled instrumentation is highly relevant, as is application-oriented development in areas such as medical devices and MedTech, industrial monitoring, and sensing solutions in demanding operational environments. Documented teaching in analog electronics, including course planning, preparation, and delivery, is required. The candidate should also be able to contribute to teaching and supervision within low-power analog and digital electronics, switching-mode technologies, and design-for-manufacturing and design-for-testing (DFM and DFT). Familiarity with industrial requirements and standards such as ATEX and SIL is an advantage. A relevant PhD and postdoctoral training or similar are required. The candidate must have excellent communication skills and be able to teach and supervise students in English. For non-Danish speaking applicants, Danish language skills are expected to be developed over a five-year period to enable teaching and supervision in Danish.
