About this position
The Center for Environmental Research & Technology (CE-CERT) at the University of California, Riverside is seeking a postdoctoral scholar to contribute to research on connected and automated vehicle (CAV) integrity monitoring. The position focuses on developing a simulation platform for CAV systems, with emphasis on data analysis, system integration, and performance assessment for vehicle positioning and integrity monitoring.
The postdoctoral researcher will support CAV integrity monitoring research and simulation development within CE-CERT’s engineering environment. The work is centered on assessing how CAV systems perform in complex scenarios and on building tools that help evaluate their positioning and integrity capabilities. The role combines algorithmic and systems-oriented research with practical simulation work.
Research activities include working with CAV sensor data and simulation tools, integrating data-driven workflows, and supporting performance assessments for connected and automated vehicle applications. The advert highlights experience with platforms and tools such as CARLA, SUMO, NS3, Python, and MATLAB, as well as sensor modalities including GNSS, LiDAR, and camera data. It also points to research in GNSS integrity monitoring and positioning, navigation, and timing.
The appointment is housed in UC Riverside’s Bourns College of Engineering and is connected to the university’s broader research mission. The postdoctoral scholar will be expected to work both independently and collaboratively, contributing to a project aligned with CAV research timelines and the center’s ongoing technical work.
