YOU SHOULD APPLY IF

We are looking for someone with a:

• Track record of relevant scientific publications or relevant experience
• Knowledge of networking protocols and architectures
• Hands-on experimental skills on optical transmission system or optical networks

THE ROLE

The Smart Internet Lab is looking for highly motivated, enthusiastic researchers at different career stages, with a passion for next generation optical switching and optical networks powering next-generation cloud, edge and AI workloads. Research topics include network architecture and switching solution for converged optical metro networks, dynamic radio access networks with optical switching supporting 6G and beyond applications, and future data centre networks facilitating AI/ML training.

WHAT WILL YOU BE DOING?

You will undertake research on future optical switching and networks, and carry out experimental/proof-of-concept implementation work for future telecommunication networks in one or more of the following fields:

• Future network architecture and design with novel optical switching solutions for metro, access, and data center networks
• Build proof-of-concept hardware or software modules
• Run lab or field trials to validate network design over large-scale testbed experimentation
