IMDEA Networks’ Pervasive Wireless System Group headed by Prof. Domenico Giustiniano invites applications for one PostDoc position in the area of LiFi technology for battery-free networks. As Internet of Things (IoT) devices are getting miniaturized, new challenges must be addressed to communicate, compute and sense, and battery-free devices are a promising solution for sustainable development. As a member of the team, the researcher will investigate the intersection between LiFi and IoT for battery-free communication. The selected candidate will work in a new EU project that aims to design battery-free IoT devices in small-form factors, and help with the supervision of PhD students in the team. See also the work done with the OpenVLC platform.

Strong background in wireless systems, embedded systems and communication
Very good publication record in top academic conferences and journals
Excellent ability to perform system research, including prototyping and hand-on skills
Very good analytical, technical and problem solving skills
Interest in mentoring graduate students
Very good organization and communication skills
