The Research Assistant supports projects in artificial intelligence, robotics, automation, or computer science. Typical requirements include a bachelor’s or master’s degree in computer science, electrical engineering, robotics, automation, or a related field; programming skills such as Python or C++; and familiarity with machine learning, computer vision, robotics, data analysis, or experimental methods. The candidate is expected to assist with literature reviews, algorithm development, software implementation, system testing, data collection, technical documentation, and research publications. Strong analytical, problem-solving, communication, and teamwork skills are important. Experience with research projects, robotics platforms, simulation tools, or deep-learning frameworks will be advantageous.
Nanyang Technological University (NTU Singapore) is a major research-intensive university located in Singapore. It is internationally recognised for engineering, technology, science, business, education, and interdisciplinary research. NTU operates a large campus with advanced laboratories, innovation centres, research institutes, and partnerships involving industry and government organisations. Its research strengths include artificial intelligence, robotics, automation, sustainability, materials science, biomedical sciences, and digital technologies. The university employs academic, research, technical, and professional staff from around the world and supports projects ranging from fundamental discovery to commercial application. A Research Assistant may work with faculty members, doctoral researchers, laboratories, and external partners while contributing to publications, prototypes, datasets, or funded research programmes. Employment conditions and salary depend on qualifications, project funding, experience, and contract terms.
Singapore offers strong opportunities in technology, research, engineering, finance, healthcare, logistics, education, and advanced manufacturing. The city is multicultural, safe, efficient, and English is widely used at work. Life is convenient, with excellent public transport, reliable services, shopping, diverse food, and easy access to parks and waterfront areas. Housing is the main expense, especially near central districts; shared accommodation or living farther from campus can reduce costs. International employees generally need an appropriate work pass, commonly an Employment Pass, S Pass, or work permit, arranged with employer support. Researchers may also qualify under university or research-institution employment arrangements. Before relocating, confirm the contract, pass eligibility, insurance, tax obligations, and housing terms. NTU is in the west of Singapore, with public transport links to other parts of the island.
