About this position

Lehigh University’s Center for Advancing Community Electrification Solutions (ACES) is inviting applications for a postdoctoral researcher on a multidisciplinary project focused on the stability and cyber-physical security of hyperscale data centers in future inverter-dominated power grids.

The project spans Electrical and Computer Engineering and Civil and Environmental Engineering at Lehigh University, with PIs including Javad Khazaei, Shalinee Kishore, and Faegheh “Farrah” Moazeni. The research is centered on the interaction between gigawatt-scale data centers and modern power grids with high penetration of inverter-based resources (IBRs).

The successful candidate will work on dynamic modeling, stability analysis, and control of coupled data center–grid systems, with an emphasis on developing theoretical frameworks, identifying stability boundaries, and designing predictive mitigation strategies under both normal and adversarial cyber-physical conditions.

A notable feature of the role is collaboration with the Siemens Research and Development team, offering exposure to industrial-scale inverter technologies and opportunities to translate theory into practice.

Eligibility highlights: PhD in Electrical Engineering, Control, Applied Mathematics, or a related field (completed or near completion); strong publication record; expertise in power system dynamics, inverter-based resources, microgrid modeling, or nonlinear control; solid background in dynamical systems, optimization, or control theory; and proficiency in MATLAB, Python, or similar scientific computing tools.

How to apply: Email a cover letter, CV with publication list, 2–3 representative papers, and three references to Prof. Javad Khazaei at [email protected]. Use the subject line ACES Postdoc – Cyber-Physical Data Center Stability.

Institution: Lehigh University, United States.

Funding details

Postdoctoral research position at Lehigh University on a multidisciplinary project with collaboration across departments and with Siemens R&D through existing partnerships. No stipend amount or explicit funding package is stated in the post.

What's required

PhD in Electrical Engineering, Control, Applied Mathematics, or a related field, completed or near completion. Applicants should have a strong publication record in top-tier journals or conferences in power systems, control, or cyber-physical systems; expertise in at least one of power system dynamics, inverter-based resources, microgrid modeling, or nonlinear control; a solid foundation in dynamical systems, optimization, or control theory; proficiency in MATLAB, Python, or equivalent scientific computing tools; and strong writing, verbal, interpersonal, independent, and collaborative research skills.
