The Research Fellow will conduct advanced research in digital integrated-circuit (IC) design and electronic design automation (EDA), contributing to research projects, technical reports, publications and prototype development. Candidates are generally expected to hold a PhD in electrical or electronic engineering, computer engineering, microelectronics or a related discipline. Relevant experience in digital IC design, RTL coding, Verilog/SystemVerilog, simulation, synthesis, verification, physical design or EDA tools is highly desirable. Strong analytical, programming and problem-solving abilities are required, together with effective written and spoken communication. The successful candidate should work independently, collaborate with academic and industry partners, meet project milestones and support dissemination of research findings.
Nanyang Technological University (NTU Singapore) is a major public research university in Singapore, recognised internationally for engineering, science, technology, business, education and interdisciplinary research. Its main campus in the western part of Singapore hosts extensive laboratories, research centres, teaching facilities and residential colleges. NTU works closely with government agencies, technology companies and international academic partners on areas such as semiconductors, artificial intelligence, sustainability, biomedical science and digital technologies. The university employs faculty members, researchers, professional staff and postgraduate students from around the world. Research Fellows typically join a school, laboratory or externally funded project, contributing to publications, technology development and collaborative research. NTU offers a multicultural academic environment and access to Singapore’s strong innovation and semiconductor ecosystem.
Singapore offers strong opportunities in semiconductors, electronics, research, software, finance, healthcare, logistics, education and advanced manufacturing. English is widely used at work, and the culture combines Chinese, Malay, Indian and international influences, with excellent food, public transport and high personal safety. The lifestyle is convenient but relatively expensive, especially for housing. Most newcomers rent rooms or apartments near MRT stations and should budget carefully for accommodation, transport, healthcare and daily expenses. Professionals normally need an Employment Pass, while eligible researchers may use an appropriate work pass sponsored by their university or employer; approval depends on salary, qualifications and current government criteria. Families should investigate dependent passes, schooling and healthcare before relocating. Singapore is compact, tropical and well connected, making it easy to explore beaches, parks, cultural districts and neighbouring Southeast Asian destinations.
