Agent guide: [/agents.md](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/agents.md). --- # Department of Electronics and ICT Engineering Technology - **Company:** Universiteit Antwerpen - **Location:** Antwerpen, Belgium - **Contract:** Temporary contract - **Skills:** Computer Programming, Python (Programming Language), LabVIEW, MATLAB, Machine Learning, Tensorflow, Signal Processing, Digital Twin, Pytorch, Information Technology, Software Library - **Published:** July 9, 2026 - **Apply:** https://jobs.apnl.uantwerpen.be/psc/apnl/EMPLOYEE/HRMS/c/HRS_HRAM_FL.HRS_CG_SEARCH_FL.GBL?Page=HRS_APP_JBPST_FL&Action=U&FOCUS=Applicant&SiteId=310&JobOpeningId=4480&PostingSeq=1 ## About the Role * You have a master's degree in Computer Science, Telecommunications, Electrical Engineering, or a closely related field, or you will have obtained it by the time you start. * You can demonstrate excellent study results (as a minimum requirement distinction and preferably great distinction). * Your teaching competences are in line with the University of Antwerp's educational vision. * Your research qualities are in line with the faculty and university research policies. * You act with attention to quality, integrity, creativity and cooperation. * You have a profound knowledge of wireless communications, networking, and signal processing. * You have at least intermediate knowledge of machine learning algorithms. * Knowledge of satellite communications, wireless sensing, radio propagation, optimization, or digital twins is considered an asset. * You have strong programming skills in Python and/or MATLAB. * Knowledge of machine learning libraries (e.g., PyTorch or TensorFlow), SDR hardware (e.g., USRP), and software (e.g., GNURadio, MATLAB, LabView) is a plus. * You are a team player and have strong communication skills. * You have a high proficiency in oral and written English., + a motivation letter + the requested degree + your academic CV (research experience, work experience, teaching experience, educational record) including: o a transcript of study results o two reference letters with appropriate contact details o an English proficiency certificate ## Description * You will conduct high quality research under the supervision of Prof. Raf Berkvens and Dr. Thomas Janssen as a member of the IDLab research group at imec and the University of Antwerp. * You will closely collaborate with other researchers at IDLab. * You will develop novel ISAC-based collision avoidance algorithms that exploit communication signals and their reflections to sense surrounding obstacles, nearby UAVs and the environment. The developed methods will combine wireless sensing with digital map information (e.g. 3D building models), enabling safe autonomous navigation in complex urban environments. The algorithms will be validated using realistic simulations and experimental measurements obtained from software-defined radios, 5G testbeds and LEO satellite receivers available within IDLab's research infrastructure. * You will write detailed technical evaluation reports on the developed solutions, implementation, and experiments, leading to publications in major conferences and journals in the field of wireless communications, and/or embedded computing. * You will carry out a limited number of teaching and research support tasks for the Electronics and ICT Engineering Technology Department (at most 20% of your time). ## Related Videos - [Unlocking the potential of Digital & IT at Vodafone](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/602-unlocking-the-potential-of-digital-it-at-vodafone) - [Leveraging Large Language Models for Legacy Code Translation: Challenges and Solutions](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1157-leveraging-large-language-models-for-legacy-code-translation-challenges-and-solutions) - [Photonic Computing: Programming a New Class of AI Accelerators (incl.
