Explore current opportunities and exciting projects
Browse opportunities for students, postdoctoral fellows, faculty, and more – including job postings, research positions, and collaborative initiatives.
Whether you are looking to join a cutting-edge research project, partner on technology development, or contribute your expertise to interdisciplinary innovation, this is a place where ideas move from concept to real-world impact.
Join the technology development of Smartwear Revolution led by the following 6 domains: Actuators/Fibres, Sensors, Power, Control/AI, Textile, Biomechanics and Social Justice. Positions are available in all domains:
– Textiles and Design Integration: Projects focus on designing and prototyping comfortable, serviceable smart garments by integrating sensors, actuators, and electronics directly into textile and garment structures for diverse user needs.
– Actuators/Fibres: Projects develop and manufacture advanced smart fibres and soft actuators, optimizing materials, fabrication processes, and textile compatibility for reliable, scalable integration into garments.
– Sensors: Projects create and validate textile-integrated wearable sensing technologies (e.g., pressure, strain, EMG, tilt) to monitor body motion and muscle activity.
– Control & AI: Projects design modelling, control, and AI frameworks that estimate user intent and adapt garment assistance in real time through human–garment co-simulation and predictive control.
– Power: Projects develop safe, high-energy-density, textile-compatible power systems, including solid-state batteries, wireless charging, and early-failure detection for wearable smart garments.
– Biomechanics: Projects support all domains by quantifying human movement, muscle activity, and body variability to inform garment design, sensor placement, and evaluation of assistance effectiveness.
Work at the intersection of textiles, actuators, sensors, control & AI, power, biomechanics, and human-centred design to help shape the future of wearable assistive technologies – co-created with diverse stakeholders and people with lived experience.
