Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) is seeking a Postdoctoral Researcher or Engineer to join the FitTape project, focusing on the development of a self-reporting, zero-power smart tape for structural health monitoring and material passports. This innovative project bridges materials research with real-world deployment and early-stage commercialisation, offering a unique opportunity to work at the intersection of academia and industry. The position is based in Delft, The Netherlands, and is offered as a 6-month contract starting in June 2026. Due to the short-term nature of the contract, preference will be given to candidates who already possess a valid residence permit and work authorisation in the Netherlands. The research will involve collaboration with leading experts in materials science and engineering, with a focus on developing and deploying smart materials for structural applications. Applicants should have a PhD in materials science, mechanical engineering, or a related field, and experience in structural health monitoring, smart materials, or early-stage commercialisation is highly desirable. The successful candidate will contribute to advancing the FitTape technology, which aims to provide innovative solutions for monitoring the health of structures and supporting the development of material passports.
