Postdoc Opportunities in Mechatronics in New Zealand

This postdoctoral position is part of the ANR BBSYTER project on formal verification of smart contracts at CNRS. The recruited researcher will work on methods that translate natural-language instructions and requirements into formal logical specifications, with a particular emphasis on linear temporal logic (LTL) and logically correct translations. The project combines several research directions: semantic translation from natural language to formal formulas, the design of a controlled natural l...

This postdoctoral position is based at Mälardalen University within the Faculty of Engineering and Health Sciences and the Department of Engineering Sciences. The role is embedded in the university’s broader research environment focused on future energy and industrial systems, with strong collaboration between academia, public-sector actors, and industry. The project centers on smart and portable automation for future sustainable and flexible production systems. The successful candidate will wor...

This postdoctoral project focuses on developing a low-carbon, durable process for producing precipitated calcium carbonate (PCC) from dissolved CO₂ in seawater using an electrochemical technology. The work sits at the interface of chemistry, electrochemistry, process development, and scale-up, with the goal of moving a laboratory-mature concept toward industrial implementation and a future startup pathway. The postdoc will be attached to the MIE laboratory and work under the responsibility of th...

RECAT at Luleå University of Technology is recruiting a postdoctoral researcher in cyber-physical systems to contribute to the transition toward data-driven and self-adapting production systems for battery manufacturing. The project sits within the new Research Center for Advanced Battery Technology (RECAT) and is linked to the system-integrated battery manufacturing competence center INBATT. The research views the battery factory as an integrated cyber-physical system, where data from machines,...

This postdoctoral project at Dalarna University focuses on making district heating systems more robust by improving the joints in pre-insulated district heating pipes. The research addresses a practical reliability problem: repeated temperature changes and mechanical stresses can accelerate material degradation and allow moisture to enter the insulation layer. The postdoc will investigate and develop self-sealing and self-healing materials for pipe joints, with a particular emphasis on polymer- ...

EcoDisco is an ANR project on biodiversity conservation choices over time and under uncertainty. The postdoctoral researcher will work on the interface of ecological economics, network analysis, and modelling to study how limited resources can be allocated between species protection and the acquisition of knowledge about ecosystems. The project connects functional diversity , describing the variety of ecological roles and traits of species, with phylogenetic diversity , which reflects their evol...

This postdoctoral position is part of the FEDER-FTJ / Fonds de Transition Juste project ALTEOR , focused on circular additive manufacturing for the repair and requalification of industrial parts. The project is co-led by Université Polytechnique Hauts-de-France and involves Centrale Lille and Université de Technologie de Compiègne . The research aims to help accelerate the transition toward a circular economy for materials in the Hauts-de-France region by using low-CAPEX additive manufacturing a...

This postdoc is based at DTU Construct in close collaboration with DTU Physics and sits within an international, highly multidisciplinary team of around eight PhD students and postdocs. The project aims to understand and predict the mechanical behaviour of metals during plastic deformation by combining dislocation dynamics , crystal plasticity simulations , and synchrotron experiments that provide direct images of microstructural evolution. The main research focus is to develop and apply crystal...

The Natural Resources Institute Finland (Luke) is offering a fixed-term postdoctoral Research Scientist position in agentic AI for agriculture . The project sits at the intersection of artificial intelligence and food production, asking how AI systems can support decision-making when data collection from fields, greenhouses, and experiments is expensive and slow. The postdoc will develop methods for offline learning from historical datasets and explore ways to transfer learned models into online...
