Schmidt Observatory System Postdoctoral Fellows

Schmidt Sciences is recruiting an inaugural cohort of postdoctoral fellows to help design, calibrate and operate a coordinated system of ground- and space-based observatories. Fellows will work across scientific simulation, instrument performance, AI-assisted analysis, data systems, time-domain astronomy and mission design while producing publishable research and technical tools.

PhD in astronomy, astrophysics, physics or a closely related field; strong research record; technical expertise in instrumentation, data systems, simulation, AI or observational astronomy; and eligibility to access U.S. export-controlled information.
