ABOUT THE function Swansea University leads the ATIP Program Grant, a cutting-edge £6M initiative funded by the EPSRC, in collaboration with Imperial College London and Oxford University, and bolstered by a consortium of 12 industrial partners. ATIP is devoted to pioneering the scientific and engineering principles required to foster the adoption of innovative organic and perovskite photovoltaics (PV) in essential technological applications. Central to ATIP's mission is the evolution of photovoltaic solutions adept at harnessing both ambient and indoor light. By doing so, the next wave of internet of things (IoT) devices will be self-powered, circumventing the environmental and economic costs connected with battery replacement and recharge. This paradigm shift is aimed at conserving energy and rare materials while minimizing the carbon footprint of these ubiquitous devices. To facilitate this transformative project, we are in pursuit of a Research agent with a niche in energy harvesting electronics tailored to sustainable IoT ecosystems. The function is best suited for a candidate who thrives in an interdisciplinary milieu, combining insights from solar energy experts to enrich their skills in energy harvesting, ultimately leading to the innovation of self-sustaining IoT sensor nodes. Prospective candidates should exhibit profound technical acumen in energy harvesting electronic systems, complemented by substantial practice in crafting energy-efficient electronics, including PCB design, fabrication, and proficiency with energy harvesting PMICs. A prerequisite for the function is a PhD in Electrical and Electronic Engineering or a related discipline with a concentration on energy harvesting technology. Candidates must demonstrate a history of significant personal contributions to research publications, particularly in peer-reviewed journals, and be skilled in conceptualizing research and drafting or co-drafting research funding proposals. EQUALITY, DIVERSITY & INCLUSION The University is committed to supporting and promoting equality and diversity in all its practices and activities. We aim to establish an inclusive environment and welcome diverse applications from the following protected characteristics: age, discapability, gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race (including colour, nationality, ethnic and national origin), religion or belief, sex, sexual orientation.
