Position Description
A postdoctoral position is available in Prof. Gage Hills’ Nano-Design Group at Harvard University. We are looking for candidates with a strong background in designing and testing high-speed transceiver circuits, with applications including high-performance electronic-photonic integrated circuits. For the post-doc position, the primary concentration would be on the electrical circuit design side, with expertise including:
  • CMOS GHz analog front end for high-speed transceivers building blocks (data converters, power amplifiers, etc.)
  • On-chip high-accuracy controllable oscillators for modulation and digital logic (VCOs, PLLs, etc.)
  • On-chip wireless communication systems (THz antennas, LNAs, mixers, etc.)
Basic Qualifications
Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering or closely related field is required by the start date.
Additional Qualifications
  • Experience with integrated optics and photonics, electro-optical modulators (MZIs, MRRs, etc.)
  • Experience with electronic design automation tools for high-frequency electromagnetic simulations
  • Background in mathematics, statistics, noise analysis
  • Willingness to expand technical skillset into new areas
  • Strong interpersonal and mentorship skills and ability, passion for mentoring PhD students and undergraduate researchers
  • Strong communication skills and presentation skills
Special Instructions
Required Documents:
  • Curriculum Vitae
  • Cover Letter (should also include applicant’s commitment to mentorship and contributing to an effective learning environment)


Optional Documents:
  • Relevant publications (up to 3) authored/co-authored by applicant
  • Slide deck highlighting key contributions during applicant’s PhD research
