Postdoctoral Research Fellow in 60 GHz FMCW Radar IC Design for Telemedicine American University of Sharjah in United Arab Emirates

American University of Sharjah (AUS), UAE is inviting applications for a Postdoctoral Research Fellow in 60 GHz FMCW radar IC design for telemedicine and non-contact healthcare sensing.

The project is led by Prof. Lutfi Albasha and Prof. Hasan Mir in the Department of Electrical Engineering. The research combines RFIC design, mm-Wave circuits, radar systems, beamforming, and AI-assisted signal processing to develop a fully integrated 60 GHz radar system-on-chip for applications such as respiratory monitoring, movement disorder assessment, and remote healthcare sensing.

The successful candidate will design and implement a 60 GHz radar front-end IC and on-chip antenna, drive the design through tapeout and characterization, perform RF/mm-Wave measurements, mentor graduate students, and publish in leading IEEE transactions. Research facilities include an on-wafer RF probe station in a cleanroom, a Keysight 110 GHz 4-port VNA, and Cadence Virtuoso/Calibre environments.

Eligibility highlights include a PhD in Electrical Engineering, strong experience in RFIC, mm-Wave, or radar systems, tapeout experience, Cadence Virtuoso and Calibre proficiency, experience above 30 GHz, and a strong publication record. Preferred experience includes 60 GHz or W-band circuits, FMCW radar architectures, RF measurement and VNA calibration, and EM simulation.

The appointment is located in Sharjah, UAE, for one year with renewal subject to funding. The post offers a competitive salary and benefits. Applications are reviewed immediately and will remain open until the position is filled.

To apply, email your CV with publication list, cover letter, two references, and a representative publication or thesis chapter to [email protected] with the subject line Postdoc Application – 60 GHz RFIC.
