About this position

The Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) is offering multiple PhD positions in the field of mixed-signal circuit design, focusing on physics-based computing and sense to compute paradigms. These positions are part of the NanoComputing Research Lab within the Department of Electrical Engineering, a leading group in the design and implementation of Oscillatory Neural Networks (ONNs) for advanced computing applications. The research is closely tied to prestigious projects such as the ERC Consolidator Grant (THERMODON) and the NWO AiNED AI-on-ONN project, aiming to harness ONNs for combinatorial optimization and sensor data processing.

Successful candidates will work on the design, modeling, simulation, and benchmarking of mixed-signal and analog circuits for ONNs, including chip tapeout as proof of concept. The research involves interdisciplinary collaboration and offers opportunities to publish in high-impact journals and present at international conferences. The department is internationally recognized for its innovative research and strong industry partnerships, providing a dynamic and supportive environment for PhD candidates.

Applicants must have a master’s degree in electrical engineering, computer engineering, or a related field, with a strong background in analog and mixed-signal circuit design, simulation, and proficiency in IC design tools such as SPICE, Cadence, and MATLAB. Fluency in English and a research-oriented attitude are required. The application package should include a cover letter, CV with publications and references, transcripts, MSc thesis, and English test results (IELTS or TOEFL or equivalent).

The positions are fully funded for four years, with a competitive salary (scale P: €3,059–€3,881 per month), year-end bonus, vacation pay, pension scheme, parental leave, and additional benefits such as training programs, technical infrastructure, childcare, sports facilities, and tax compensation for international candidates. The university provides a vibrant, international research environment and encourages personal and professional growth.

To apply, candidates should use the official TU/e online application system via the provided vacancy links. Applications sent by email or post will not be processed. The deadline for applications is February 5, 2026, but the positions will remain open until filled. For further information, applicants may contact Prof. Aida Todri-Sanial at [email protected].
