enoa, ItalyStep into a world of endless possibilities, together let's leave something for the future!At IIT, we are committed to advancing human-centered Science and Technology to address the most urgent societal challenges of our era.
We foster excellence in both fundamental and applied research, spanning fields such as neuroscience and cognition, humanoid technologies and robotics, artificial intelligence, nanotechnology, and material sciences, offering a truly interdisciplinary scientific experience.
Our approach integrates cutting-edge tools and technology, empowering researchers to push the limits of knowledge and innovation.
With us, your curiosity will know no bounds.
e are dedicated to providing equal employment opportunities and fostering diversity in all its forms, creating an inclusive environment.
We value the unique experiences, knowledge, backgrounds, cultures, and perspectives of our people.
By embracing diversity, we believe science can achieve its fullest potential.
THE ROLEYou will be working in a multi-disciplinary group, where people with different backgrounds collaborate, each with their own expertise, to support IIT research activity.
The EDPR Research line is coordinated by Chiara Bartolozzi, who has extensive experience in neuromorphic engineering, and event-driven sensing and perception for robots.
The Neuromorphic domain is a strongly emerging alternative computing ecosystem that can provide a more sustainable option to mainstream digital computing.
We have an open position for a young talent interested in working together with scientists to improve robotics and artificial vision.
We are doing so through AI, neuromorphic technology and event-driven sensing.
We are looking for a technician who will team-up with PostDocs and PhD students in engineering and integrating the latest developments on event-driven sensors and neuromorphic computation on robots and prosthetic devices.
ithin the team, your main responsibilities will be.
est, maintain and improve software libraries to generate datasets, run code in real-time, manage smooth, efficient and low-latency communication of data across different platforms (GPU, CPU, FPGA, neuromorphic hardware), train AI networks;Optimize code implementation for low-latency and real-time, on GPU, CPU or neuromorphic hardware; Support and team up with the researchers in the research line to improve and integrate all their modules;Support and team-up with other technicians in IIT;Development and maintenance of demonstrators.
