Are you imec's next moonshot PI? Build out an impactful research theme with your own research team!

What you will do

Take your research career to the next level with our tenure track position! Convince us with your innovative research idea, linked to one of the imec expertise domains and get the unique opportunity to build out an impactful research theme with your own research team! 

As our imec Tenure Track holder you will: 

  • Develop an ambitious and innovative research program complementary with or within imec’s expertise domains. 
  • Starting from 2 PhD students and 1 post doc, build and manage a strong research team and make it grow! You will hire, support and mentor this team in their research activities. 
  • Acquire competitive project financing and build out a network of collaboration both within and outside of imec. 
  • Strive for research excellence, publish on the highest scientific level and leave your scientific mark on sustainable progress. 

What we do for you

In short, we will be the catalyst of your groundbreaking research. We offer you research freedom in combination with a permanent contract and the necessary financial possibilities to build out your research idea. We’ll give you the opportunity to hire 2 PhD students and a postdoc as members of your research team. You will also have access to our unique state-of-the-art facilities and to our network of industrial partners. Working at imec, an inspiring high-tech environment, you will receive the most advanced engineering support.  
Keep in mind that this tenure track does not imply an automatic assignment to a university. 

We offer you the opportunity to join one of the world’s premier research centers in nanotechnology at its headquarters in Leuven, Belgium. With your talent, passion and expertise, you’ll become part of a team that makes the impossible possible. Together, we shape the technology that will determine the society of tomorrow.

We are committed to being an inclusive employer and proud of our open, multicultural, and informal working environment with ample possibilities to take initiative and show responsibility.
