About this position
Join the Microwave Electronics Laboratory (MEL) at Chalmers University of Technology as a postdoctoral researcher and contribute to cutting-edge research in integrated circuits for full-duplex communication and sensing. MEL is one of the largest divisions within the Department of Microtechnology and Nanoscience, with over 40 researchers working on high-speed electronic components, circuits, and systems for communication, industrial, and remote sensing applications across 1 GHz to 500 GHz and beyond. The laboratory offers state-of-the-art facilities for advanced microwave, millimeter wave, and sub-terahertz measurements.
This postdoctoral project focuses on developing novel integrated microwave circuit architectures to address the challenges of in-band full-duplex (IBFD) operation in MIMO systems, particularly the mitigation of self-interference. The research will target the 7–20 GHz frequency range and involve both RFIC/CMOS and MMIC implementations. You will have access to advanced semiconductor technologies and world-class measurement facilities at the Kollberg Laboratory. The project is highly collaborative, involving experts in antennas, RF circuits, and digital signal processing, aiming for co-optimized solutions to maximize full-duplex MIMO performance.
As a postdoc, you will conduct independent and collaborative research, lead and co-author scientific publications, participate in joint activities with academic and industrial partners, and contribute to the supervision of PhD and MSc students. The position is full-time for two years, with the possibility of a one-year extension, and requires physical presence in Gothenburg, Sweden. Chalmers offers a dynamic and inclusive work environment, comprehensive employee benefits, and support for international staff, including Swedish language courses.
Applicants must have a PhD in electrical engineering, engineering physics, or a related field, with strong expertise in RF/microwave engineering, analog/RFIC design, and/or MMIC design. Experience with circuit simulation and layout tools (e.g., Cadence, ADS, HFSS) and high-frequency measurements is highly valued. Proficiency in English and excellent interpersonal skills are essential. The application deadline is January 31, 2026. For more information, contact Professor Christian Fager or Assistant Professor Gregor Lasser.

What's required
Applicants must hold a PhD degree in electrical engineering, engineering physics, or a related field by the time of employment. A strong background in RF/microwave engineering, analog/RFIC design, and/or MMIC design is required. Demonstrated hands-on experience with circuit simulation and layout tools (such as Cadence, ADS, HFSS) and high-frequency measurements is highly meritorious. A strong publication record in relevant areas is meritorious. Proficiency in spoken and written English is required. Applicants should be enthusiastic, self-driven, creative, and possess strong analytical and problem-solving skills. Excellent interpersonal and communication skills are essential due to the collaborative nature of the project. Physical presence is required throughout the employment, and a valid residence permit must be presented by the start date.
