The Research Fellow will conduct research on civil infrastructure monitoring using distributed sensing technologies, likely involving optical fibre sensing, data analysis, structural health monitoring, laboratory testing, field investigations, and numerical modelling. Candidates are generally expected to hold a PhD in civil engineering, structural engineering, geotechnical engineering, sensing technology, or a related discipline. Experience with distributed sensing, signal processing, programming, experimental design, and interpreting infrastructure data is advantageous. The role also requires strong technical writing, research publication skills, problem-solving ability, and effective collaboration with academic and industry partners. The successful candidate is expected to contribute independently to project delivery, prepare reports and papers, support grant or project objectives, and work safely and professionally in laboratory and field environments.

The university supports research in areas such as sustainable infrastructure, advanced materials, artificial intelligence, environmental engineering, and smart cities. Research Fellows typically work within academic schools or specialised research projects, contributing to publications, innovation, grant-funded programmes, and collaborations with external organisations. NTU offers a multicultural working environment and attracts researchers and students from around the world. Its location in Singapore provides access to advanced infrastructure, strong public services, and a regional hub for technology, construction, and engineering development.
Singapore offers strong opportunities in engineering, research, construction technology, infrastructure, electronics, finance, healthcare, and education. The culture is multicultural, English-speaking, and generally orderly, with Chinese, Malay, Indian, and international influences. Life is convenient: public transport is efficient, healthcare is high quality, and food options range from hawker centres to international restaurants. Housing can be expensive, particularly near central areas, although shared accommodation and locations near MRT stations can reduce costs. Employment usually requires an employer-sponsored work pass. Research Fellows commonly use an Employment Pass or a related professional pass, subject to salary and eligibility requirements. Before relocating, candidates should confirm pass arrangements, medical coverage, tax obligations, and housing costs. Singapore is hot and humid year-round, with frequent rain. It is compact, safe, and well connected to Southeast Asia, making it suitable for professionals seeking a modern urban lifestyle and regional travel opportunities.
