Full-time, Fixed-Term 2-Year Contract, Academic Level A Penrith Campus with occasional field and multi-site work Salary: $97,153 – $117,376 per annum, plus 17% Super and Leave Loading Shape the future of neuromorphic sensing for autonomous maritime systems through cutting-edge underwater AI research and field deployment. The Opportunity The International Centre for Neuromorphic Systems (ICNS), part of the MARCS Institute for Brain, Behaviour and Development, is seeking a Postdoctoral Research Fellow to join the ASCA project (Aqua Colliculus Autonomous Neuromorphic Sonobuoy Network for Multi-Modal Sensing and Decision-Making). This role sits at the intersection of electrical engineering, neuroscience, computer science, and signal processing delivering real-world impact through neuromorphic maritime sensing systems. You will contribute to the design and implementation of advanced underwater acoustic localisation, tracking, and classification systems, with a strong focus on spiking neural networks (SNNs) and low-power FPGA-based inference. You will play a key role in developing next-generation hydrophone array systems and neuromorphic preprocessing pipelines that operate reliably in complex, noisy, and dynamic underwater environments. Working within a highly interdisciplinary and internationally connected research team, you will help translate theoretical models into field-deployable systems, supporting experimental validation, sensor integration, and real-world maritime trials. This is a hands-on research role that combines algorithm development, embedded system design, and field experimentation to advance the frontier of autonomous underwater sensing. What Success Looks Like: Delivery of validated underwater acoustic localisation and tracking algorithms with robust benchmarking and evaluation. Development of neuromorphic models enabling anomaly detection, classification, and localisation cue inference. Reproducible and well-documented research pipelines supporting experimental integrity and scalability. Successful integration of hydrophone arrays and synchronised multi-channel acquisition systems. Effective contribution to field trials, multi-sensor experiments, and publication outputs in high-impact venues. Please refer to the Position Description for full details. About You You are an Australian citizen (mandatory requirement for this role). You hold a PhD (or have submitted your thesis) in Electrical/Electronic Engineering, Signal Processing, Acoustics, Robotics, Computer Science, or a related discipline. You bring strong experience in underwater acoustics or multi-microphone/hydrophone array processing, including beamforming, localisation (e.g., TDOA/ITD), and calibration techniques. You have demonstrated capability in developing sensor systems and field-deployable research platforms, including DAQ, timestamping, and synchronisation. You are highly proficient in Python and/or C/C++, with strong experience in Linux environments and version control (Git). You have a strong publication record and experience delivering reproducible research outputs in collaborative environments. You are comfortable working across disciplines and contributing to team-based research, with exposure to FPGA or embedded systems considered highly desirable.
