About this position
KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, Sweden, is offering a fully funded PhD position in neuromorphic computing as part of the EU MSCA Doctoral Network ELEVATE. The research focuses on event-based sensing and computation for low-power, low-latency robotics, with a particular emphasis on sensory perception for closed-loop robotic systems and event vision for fast human–robot collaboration scenarios. The project will investigate neuromorphic sensors and sensor fusion using multiple event-cameras in real-time human-robot co-working environments, such as a 7 DOF robotic arm interacting with humans and tools.
The doctoral position is based at KTH and includes mandatory research stays at partner universities and companies across Europe. The position is supervised by Prof. Dr. Jörg Conradt and co-supervised by Prof. Dr. Arvind Kumar, both at KTH. The project is ideal for candidates with expertise in neuromorphic/event-based processing, robotics (hardware/software), programming (including C), and experience in neural networks or machine learning. Strong personal skills such as independence, collaboration, and analytical ability are also valued.
Applicants must have a master's degree or equivalent, or have completed at least 240 higher education credits (with at least 60 at the second-cycle level). The EU MSCA mobility rule applies: candidates must not have resided or conducted their main activity in Sweden for more than 12 months in the 3 years prior to recruitment. Proficiency in English equivalent to English B/6 is required.
The position offers a starting salary of 33,000 SEK/month (pre-tax), with additional mobility and possible family allowances as per Marie Curie regulations. Funding is provided by both KTH and the EU MSCA Doctoral Network. Employment is full-time and temporary, with a maximum duration of four years for doctoral studies. The start date is according to agreement, and the application deadline is rolling.
To apply, candidates should submit a CV, application letter, copies of diplomas and grades, proof of English proficiency, and representative publications through KTH's recruitment system. For more information, contact Prof. Jörg Conradt at [email protected]. This opportunity is ideal for those interested in cutting-edge research at the intersection of computer science, robotics, and electrical engineering, with a focus on neuromorphic computing and human-robot collaboration.
