Postdoc Opportunity with Shenzhen University (Shenzhen, China) on ocean wave-related studies

Dear collegues,

I am inviting applications for postdoctoral positions (2-3 years) at Shenzhen University (Shenzhen, China) in the broad area of ocean wave–related studies. Successful candidates will work with me on one or more of the following research directions:

  1. Development and application of AI-based models for ocean waves, storm surges, and/or marine ecology

  2. Microwave and/or lidar remote sensing of sea surface winds and waves

  3. Data assimilation and data fusion for numerical and/or AI-based wave models

  4. Wave climate analysis and variability

  5. Other relevant research topics (relevant to AI oceanography, ocean remote sensing, wind-waves, or storm surge), subject to discussion, that align with the candidate’s expertise and interests

It would be nice if the candidate have a strong background in one or more related fields, such as:

  • Marine sciences / physical oceanography

  • Computer science / artificial intelligence / data science

  • Remote sensing

  • Geography or related disciplines

Interdisciplinary experience is highly encouraged.

Eligibility (University Requirements, I can do nothing about it)

  • Applicants must have obtained their PhD within the past 3 years, and

  • Be no older than 35 years of age at the time of application.

Salary and Benefits

Annual before-tax income: approximately 330,000 CNY (≈ 40,000 EUR) [China offers a significantly lower cost of living than developed countries, while maintaining a comparable standard of living, making this position financially competitive]

On-campus dining: University cafeterias operate three meals per day, with an average cost of 15–20 CNY per meal. In addition, each postdoctoral researcher receives a monthly meal allowance of 300 CNY.

Sports and fitness facilities: Access to all university sports and fitness facilities, typically costing 5–20 CNY per visit. A yearly sports subsidy of 400 CNY is also provided.

Application Information

Application period: Open all year around
How to apply: Interested candidates are welcome to contact me directly (Haoyu Jiang, Haoyujiang@szu.edu.cn), preferably with a CV and a brief description of research interests.

I would greatly appreciate it if you could share this opportunity within your professional networks or recommend suitable candidates.

Best regards,
Haoyu
