Johan Carlson

Luleå University of Technology is seeking a postdoctoral researcher to join the signal processing group within the Department of Computer Science, Electrical and Space Engineering. The position is embedded in an active research environment focused on measurement technology and wireless communication, with strong industrial collaboration and a clear emphasis on extracting reliable information from measurement data and transferring it robustly across time and space. The project centers on quantitative non-destructive testing and evaluation of additively manufactured metal components. The postdoc will work with ultrasonic inspection, conventional material characterization, and the development of a signal-processing framework for training task-adapted data-driven models. The research is carried out in collaboration with the Division of Materials Science and industrial partners, offering a setting that combines applied research, algorithm development, and experimental work on advanced metallic materials. The role includes research within a collaborative project and contribution to the supervision of doctoral students and master’s-level thesis students. Limited teaching at undergraduate level may also be part of the position. The appointment is based at Luleå and is linked to the university’s broader research strengths in signal processing and interdisciplinary collaboration.
