Department/Organization: 214251 - Electrical and Computer Eng
Normal Work Schedule: Monday - Friday 8:00am to 5:00pm
Job Summary: The Postdoctoral Fellow provides for an internship and continuation of scholarly activity and research after achieving the PhD or other doctoral degree under the direction of a senior faculty member who serves as a mentor for the postdoctoral appointee.
Additional Department Summary: The Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at The University of Alabama is seeking candidates for a Postdoctoral position. Research interests and experience in the areas of power electronics, controls systems, and battery management systems.
Successful candidates will hold a Ph.D. degree in Electrical or Computer Engineering or a related field and demonstrate a record of academic achievement in research. Initial appointments are for one year, with renewal contingent availability of funding.
Required Department Minimum Qualifications: Ph.D. in Electrical and Computer Engineering or related field.
Candidates will need to have completed their Ph.D. or have it completed by the start of employment.
Skills and Knowledge: Strong knowledge and hands-on experience in power electronics, control systems, and battery management systems, including the design, development, testing, and validation of power electronic hardware (e.g., DC/DC converters, high-power systems, and electric vehicle applications). Experience with laboratory experimentation, hardware prototyping, system integration, instrumentation, and real-time control implementation is required.
Demonstrated ability to develop and validate control algorithms, perform data acquisition and analysis, and work with embedded systems and digital controllers. Familiarity with modeling, simulation, and experimental validation of energy systems is expected.
Preferred Qualifications: Experience with artificial intelligence and machine learning for energy systems, including data-driven modeling, real-time inference, and integration of AI with control systems. Familiarity with training, validation, and deployment of AI models (e.g., for SoC/SoH estimation, power allocation, or scheduling) is highly desired. Knowledge of robustness, uncertainty quantification, and basic cybersecurity considerations (e.g., data integrity, adversarial inputs, and secure control pipelines) in AI-enabled control systems is a plus.
Background Investigation Statement: Prior to hiring, the final candidate(s) must successfully pass a pre-employment background investigation and information obtained from social media and other internet sources. A prior conviction reported as a result of the background investigation DOES NOT automatically disqualify a candidate from consideration for this position.
