About the opportunity

The School of Civil Engineering, engineering solutions to global problems. Educating tomorrow’s leaders, pioneering research that’s creating a digital, sustainable and healthier future, and forging strong collaborations with industry. With research which spans from structural engineering, to geomechanics, wind and environmental engineering, transportation and humanitarian engineering.

The university is seeking to employ a Laboratory Engineer at a HEO 5 or 6 level to join the newly appointed research team working on two parallel themes of an ARC Discovery Project under the guidance of Prof. Itai Einav. The first theme will develop and characterise novel paradigm of deformable sensors for geotechnical engineering purposes, to measure stresses underground. The second theme will advance those stress sensors to facilitate the perception of soft underground robotics of their surr...
