The Senior Research Scientist will lead research and development in power electronics and power engineering, contributing to the design, modelling, testing and validation of advanced energy-conversion systems. Requirements typically include a PhD in electrical engineering, power electronics or a related discipline, strong knowledge of converters, power systems, control techniques and simulation tools, and relevant research or industry experience. Candidates should demonstrate a record of publications, innovation or project delivery, along with strong analytical, communication and project-management skills. The role is expected to supervise junior researchers, collaborate with academic and industry partners, prepare technical reports and proposals, and support the successful delivery of funded clean-technology projects.
Nanyang Technological University (NTU Singapore) is a major public research university in Singapore, recognised internationally for engineering, technology, science, business and interdisciplinary research. Its research activities include sustainability, renewable energy, electrification, advanced manufacturing, artificial intelligence and smart systems. The university works closely with government agencies, companies and global academic partners to translate research into practical solutions. This position appears connected with CleanTech One, reflecting NTU’s focus on clean-energy innovation and applied engineering. NTU offers a research-intensive environment with modern laboratories, access to specialist equipment and opportunities to collaborate across departments and external organisations. Staff members commonly contribute to funded research programmes, publications, patents, technology transfer and postgraduate supervision. Employment conditions and salary are normally determined by qualifications, experience, funding availability and the specific research appointment.
Singapore is a compact, highly connected island city with strong opportunities in engineering, clean technology, electronics, advanced manufacturing, research, finance and technology. English is widely used at work, while Mandarin, Malay and Tamil are also official languages. The culture is multicultural, orderly and professional, with excellent public transport, safe neighbourhoods and diverse food. Housing can be expensive, especially in central areas, so many newcomers rent rooms or apartments near MRT stations. Singapore’s tropical climate is hot and humid year-round, with frequent rain. Foreign professionals generally need an Employment Pass, while eligible researchers may use other Ministry of Manpower work-pass arrangements; the employer normally handles the application. Bring certified qualifications, employment records and passport documents, and budget for deposits, healthcare, transport and initial accommodation. The city’s airport, public services and regional connections make relocation relatively straightforward.
