This post represents an exciting opportunity for an ambitious graduate to become part of a new cohort of exceptional researchers in a unique partnership between academia and business as part of Keele University's Smart Energy Network Demonstrator (SEND) project.
Under
the supervision of an academic project lead,
you will undertake a programme of collaborative research, development and innovation (RD&I) which will underpin the development of a new product, process or service, working collaboratively with a Stoke-on-Trent and Staffordshire business, Synetica Ltd. In addition, you will be eligible to submit the work undertaken as the basis of a body of work to be examined for consideration of the award of a PhD from Keele University. Synetica is a specialist energy and environmental monitoring company that designs and
manufactures a broad range of hardware and software products for the acquisition and analysis of smart metering and environmental data. Synetica has recently developed a range of IoT devices using long range, low power wireless using LoRa, Sigfox and in future NB-IOT. In order to support large scale deployment and maintenance of these IoT devices the company requires an advanced management software platform. This project aims to research and develop a cloud based IoT platform.
The Smart Energy Network Demonstrator (SEND) project (Reference 32R16P00706) is part-funded from the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) as part of the European Structural and Investment Funds England Growth Programme 2014-2020 and the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy.
