Technician position in nanoelectronic devices
To apply submit application at MIT website
There is an opening in Prof. Deblina Sarkar’s research group (https://web.mit.edu/deblina-
sarkar/index.html) at MIT for a Technical Associate with strong background in electronic device physics.
The technical associate will be involved in developing optically actuated devices for wireless brain
stimulation. The person should have an interest in optoelectronics (photovoltaic devices) and biomedical
implants, though no prior experience is needed in either optoelectronics or biomedicine. Strong grasp in
electronic devices (diode, transistors, band diagrams etc) is a MUST.
This position is not eligible for visa sponsorship. So international candidates, please only apply if you
have work authorization in USA (OPT, permanent residence etc).
