We are looking for a Research Associate to assist the ERI@N Management Team to execute research on tidal resources. Singapore and the ASEAN region are exploring all forms of energy to achieve a diverse energy portfolio supporting decarbonisation goals.

As such, tidal and other ocean energy sources are to be explored and ERI@N is looking to develop a portfolio of activities in this area.

The role of the RA is to support projects in this area and, if successful, support to build the portfolio towards a new Interdisciplinary Research Programme in tidal and other ocean energy resources.

The Research Associate is to assist the ERI@N Program Managers or Cluster Directors in Scientific, Technical and Project Execution matters relating to tidal resources.

Key Responsibilities:

Participate in research and development, demonstration, and deployment projects of innovative energy solutions, that entail research in energy systems and alternative energy sources.
Support joint research and development agreements such as Joint Industry Program, Research Collaboration Agreements with Industry or University partners and related programs.
Execute research projects in the group to ensure projects are executed to meet the scientific / technical targets.
Support the research team in supporting in preparation of grant proposals, intellectual property filings, presentations in meetings, scientific conferences; publishing research papers in Journals / conference proceedings as defined in the project scope and agreements.

Scientific activities include:

Develop Tidal Resource Models

Design and implement statistical and machine learning tidal models to predict energy demand, supply, and market trends.

Analyse Energy Data

Collect, clean, and interpret large datasets from various sources.

Monitor and Validate Model Performance

Continuously evaluate data accuracy and refine models to improve reliability and responsiveness.

Collaborate with Stakeholders

Work closely with energy planners, engineers, and policy teams to align with operational and strategic goals.

Contribute to Research Publications

Publish research findings in academic journals or industry reports to advance knowledge in energy forecasting.

Job Requirements:

Masters in Engineering or Sciences or a related field
Familiarity with both academic and industrial research as well as the funding landscape enabling these research programs is preferred.
Good written and oral communication skills and the ability to communicate with a wide range of individual and professional groups in both industry as well as government agencies is required.
