Bangalore JobsChallenging Opportunities in Experimental Astronomy - The Raman Research Institute (www.rri.res.in) invites applications from motivated individuals with excellent academic background and research aptitude in Engineering, Physics, Engineering Physics or Computer Science to be a part of, contribute to, and embark on a career path towards taking on lead roles in
Experimental Astronomy. We are seeking individuals with a passion for design and
development of specialized and purpose-built systems and software for pursuing
frontline research on topical issues in modern astrophysics – individuals who wish a career in hands-on experimental astronomy using engineering and software skills along with a deep understanding of astronomy methods and astrophysics – to take leadership roles in defining and pursuing the problems of tomorrow.
Members of the Astronomy & Astrophysics group of the Institute have engaged in research building new and innovative radio telescopes in India and overseas, and built specialized receivers for international telescope facilities, which open and
explore new windows to our understanding of astrophysical phenomena. The engineering skills required for such activities include Signal and Image Processing, Antennas, Low-noise microwave receivers, High-speed analog and digital data
transmission and processing, and Real-time and applications software. The group also develops X-ray instruments for astronomical observations from space. Working in remote regions across the world is essential today in astronomy owing to radio frequency interference and light pollution; therefore, we seek individuals with an ability and eagerness for exploration and travel and working with teams in remote locations. Address: Raman Research Institute, Sadashivanagar, Bangalore 560080.
