About this position

You’ll join the MIC Research & Innovation (R&I) team. R&I develops advanced microfluidic technologies to push the impact of this technology across very diverse fields: cell biology, soil remediation, water treatment, materials science. We work through collaborative projects with the best European laboratories.

Market-driven PhD engineer job is about turning open scientific problems into microfluidic setups and instruments that actually work, somewhere between the bench and the workshop, from the specification sheet all the way to the prototype delivered to the partner. Whether or not you already have experience is not what matters most to us. What counts is your mindset, your curiosity, your energy and your ability to learn.

Your role

You work with the team on scientific projects built around microfluidics, to meet the needs and specifications of our research partners

You design, build, test and improve microfluidic setups and platforms

You bring ideas to the table and solve the challenges you run into in simple, bold and clever ways

You take part in developing the next microfluidic instruments in our range, for every scientific application in our field

Together with the rest of the team, you deliver prototypes to leading scientists all over Europe and you iterate on their feedback

You put into practice the shortcuts and wild ideas that make sense so MIC stays at the top of innovation in its sector

You factor market needs into the development of new technologies within European projects, to speed up their exploitation

Fault-Tolerant Remote Sensing Data Dissemination Protocols For Climate Change And Sustainability

ENAC · Distributed Computer Systems and Networks

  • Toulouse, France
  • Computer science, Mathematics

Keywords: distributed computing, dissemination protocols, swarm intelligence, global change, remote sensing, fault tolerance, intermittent computing Abstract Collecting environmental remote sensing data is key to quantifying and better understanding the impacts of global change. Collecting data in remote ecosystems such as mangrove estuaries, rainforests, deep-water habitats and river flowstreams requires high coverage and spatiotemporal precision. While satellite systems enable high coverage, they lack precise spatiotemporal data collection. Swarms of drones have emerged as a promising way to
