Job description

At the faculty of Electrical Engineering at Eindhoven University of Technology, a PhD-position is available within the PATTERN project, a Marie Sklodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) Doctoral Network funded by the EU. The position is open for appointment during the course of 2025, with a duration of 48 months hosted by TU/e, and includes a 2-4 months secondment at KU Leuven (BE) and Idiada (CZ).

We are looking for you!

Do you want to be trained to take up a key position mixing electronics and AI for medical electronic equipment? While being part of a prestigious MSCA doctoral network working on the embedding of existing AI technology into a the design for electromagnetic interference in medical equipment? This is your chance!!

This Doctoral Candidate (DC) first goal will be to unravel a structural understanding of the exchange of parasitic energy a PCB Tracks with its environment using AI tools. The so-called EMNF (ElectroMagnetic Noise Footprint) comprises a set of characteristic curves obtained from stand-alone measurements on a PCB. A second goal will consist in exploring how to combine two or more EMNFs. The work will support an optimization (within the Safe and Sustainable by Design framework) of PCB routing by combining EMNFs.

Research Programme Description

PATTERN – European Doctoral Network Enabling Artificial Intelligence for Electromagnetic Compatibility consortium is funded by the European Union under Grant Agreement No. 101169295 and UKRI. It groups 9 hiring Universities: Eindhoven University of Technology (NL), University of Twente (NL), KU Leuven (BE), Universiteit Gent (BE), Tomáš Baťa University (CZ), Technische Universität Hamburg (DE), CNRS (FR), NOVA University of Lisbon (PT) and De Montfort University (UK). PATTERN will create a long-lasting, multidisciplinary, academic-industrial network for doctoral training, with leading European industry and academia, to achieve a breakthrough in the design of innovative EMI solutions, throughout their lifecycle, with AI acting as the key enabler of a new design philosophy. For this inclusion to occur, each DC will develop through their research the missing dedicated components, tools and techniques, and apply them to a representative set of EMI solutions under development. This hands-on training is supplemented with several scientific professional courses and an immersive training where the DCs can fine-tune their skills for the Jobs of tomorrow, while addressing the societal challenges of the PATTERN program.
