About this position

RIKEN is recruiting a Special Research Fellow in the Unexplored Laser Science Research Team at the Research Center for Advanced Photonics (Wako Campus, Saitama, Japan). This is a research position focused on laser engineering, optical science, quantum optical science, and related areas such as semiconductors, optical properties, and atomic physics.

The team’s research background includes development of high-intensity ultrashort-pulse laser light sources, photon quantum beam sources, and high-intensity laser science. The advertised duties include development of high-repetition-rate mid-infrared solid-state lasers, experimental research on attosecond light science, and development/application of novel laser sources such as structured light pulses and high-power non-classical light generation.

This is a fixed-term, non-tenure-track contract position for one year, with possible renewal up to five years subject to evaluation and institutional conditions. The posting states that the annual income starts at 4 million yen, with salary determined by experience, skills, and performance. Benefits include discretionary work allowance, commuting allowance, housing allowance, and social insurance.

Eligibility requires a doctorate in a field related to laser engineering or optical science, or expected completion by the hiring date. The posting also notes that, generally, candidates who obtained their PhD within the last five years are hired as Special Research Fellows. Work is located at RIKEN Center for Advanced Photonics, Wako Campus, Saitama Prefecture, Japan.

Applications are accepted from June 16, 2026 to June 16, 2027, though the search may close earlier once a suitable candidate is found. Applicants should use the public offering page and submit the required electronic documents, including the resume and list of achievements.
