  • Supervise and mentor undergraduate, graduate, and Ph.D. students on robotics projects.
  • Collaborate with industry partners in interdisciplinary projects to develop innovative robot applications and address specific industry challenges, in sectors such as healthcare, manufacturing, supply chain, service robotics, smart cities, or autonomous vehicles.
  • Play a key role in curriculum development, integrating the latest advancements in robotics, including those in AI, robot ethics, and cobots.
  • Participate in academic service and contribute to the strategic growth of the School of Science and Technology.

Required Qualifications:

  • A Ph.D. in robotics, computer science, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, or a closely related field, with demonstrated expertise in robotics.
  • Proven research excellence in autonomous systems, robot control, robot vision, AI for robotics, or HRI.
  • A strong publication record in top-tier journals and conferences related to robotics, AI, or autonomous systems.
  • Experience designing and teaching high-quality courses in robotics, with an emphasis on hands-on learning and practical applications.
  • Proficiency in programming for robotics, such as in ROS (Robot Operating System), Simulink, Python, and C++.
  • Fluency in English is required; proficiency in Spanish is desirable but not mandatory.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Experience with machine learning applications in robotics, especially for perception, control, or decision-making in autonomous systems.
  • Familiarity with robotic simulation environments such as Gazebo or V-REP.
  • Proven ability to secure research funding and lead large-scale, multi-disciplinary projects involving academia and industry.
  • Interest in the ethical implications of robotics and AI, including issues of robotic autonomy, safety, HRI, and cobots.

We offer:

  • A competitive salary in line with top-ranked European academic institutions.
  • A generous seed research fund to cover travel, equipment and relocation costs.
  • State-of-the-art campus facilities and support to build your lab infrastructure.
  • A professional and stimulating international working environment with English as the de facto language.
