You will work with Prof. Lars A. Buchhave (2ES PI) and the rapidly growing Exoplanet Group at DTU Space. At DTU Space, you will have access to data from world-class telescopes, including JWST, ultra-precise RV spectrographs (e.g., HARPS-N and EXPRES), and access to ESO facilities. Additional information about the Exoplanet Group at DTU Space can be found at http://www.exoplanets.dk, and more details about 2ES can be found at http://www.2es.dk.
Responsibilities and qualifications
We are seeking a talented and highly motivated researcher to work at the forefront of extreme-precision radial velocity science. The postdoc will be involved with one or more of the following activities: developing and implementing a data reduction pipeline for 2ES to achieve extreme RV precision; conducting laboratory testing and characterization of 2ES to ensure optimal performance and stability; integrating a Laser Frequency Comb (LFC) calibration source to ensure extreme long-term precision; developing and applying stellar activity mitigation techniques for solar-type stars; refining the target list for 2ES and conducting preparatory observations using other facilities; and contributing to the scientific and technical preparation for 2ES operations and the discovery of Earth-mass planets.
As a formal qualification, you must hold a PhD degree (or equivalent).
Application procedure
Your complete online application must be submitted no later than Friday, 9 January 2026 (23:59 Danish time).
