Ä¢¹½´«Ã½ the role

Pan--Tilt--Zoom (PTZ) cameras capture detailed imagery of selected contacts, but this reduces awareness of the wider environment.  This innovative project will assess the feasibility of a reinforcement learning system that decides where the camera should point and when to zoom. It will balance searching for new contacts, tracking known contacts and maintaining situational awareness under uncertainty.

The capability will extend Synoptix's Synx-Lookout product beyond detection and tracking by adding autonomous attention allocation, contact prioritisation and camera control while continuing to run on edge compute. Development will use Synoptix's synthetic environment capability, followed by testing with PTZ cameras and edge hardware.

Whilst working on this unique project as an AKT Associate, applying your academic skills to an industrially focused project, you will broaden your knowledge and expertise, and be supported by both industrial and academic supervisors. 

The project will be supervised by Professor Özgür Simsek (Professor of Artificial Intelligence, Director of Ä¢¹½´«Ã½'s Reinforcement Learning Laboratory, Director of Ä¢¹½´«Ã½’s Centre for Artificial Intelligence) and by George Leete (Senior AI Engineer at Synoptix Limited).

Synoptix Ltd

Synoptix is an award-winning engineering consultancy delivering advanced solutions across defence, aerospace, healthcare, energy and cyber security sectors.

The Associate will investigate how reinforcement learning can be used to control PTZ cameras operating in complex maritime environments

The post will offer the following benefits:

• Valuable experience and highly transferable skills.
• Mentoring from the company and academic team.
• Access to University resources to complete the project.
• Experience working directly with a technology-focused industrial partner.

This role is part of the UK Catalysis Hub where the practical work will take place at the Research Complex at Harwell (RCaH), working within the Hub laboratories.

The UK Catalysis Hub is a national consortium of 46 universities, 15 companies, the STFC Harwell science facilities, and 13 international partners established in 2013 to coordinate and advance UK catalysis research and connect it internationally. Now in its third phase of funding, its priority research areas include sustainability and net zero, digital chemistry, and advanced characterisation methods. One of its core missions is to support the training and career development of early career researchers via community events.

This is an exciting opportunity for a skilled and motivated postdoctoral researcher to work at the interface of heterogeneous catalysis and in situ spectroscopy, to understand molecular behaviour in zeolite catalysts for sustainable aviation fuels.

This one-year project brings together complementary expertise in catalytic testing and in situ spectroscopy (Lezcano Gonzalez, UK Catalysis Hub/Manchester) with atomistic modelling and simulation of microporous catalysts carried out by the main supervisor (O’Malley, Ä¢¹½´«Ã½). The work will focus on the alcohol-to-jet (ATJ) process, a key route to sustainable aviation fuels, and aims to establish how adsorption, diffusion, and competitive site interactions within zeolite micropores govern catalytic performance, selectivity, and stability.

The project will involve catalytic testing in fixed-bed reactors and in situ FTIR/DRIFTS spectroscopy to probe adsorption, acid-site interactions, and reaction intermediates. The successful candidate will be based at Harwell, gaining experience across multiple techniques.

This role offers a unique opportunity to develop an integrated experimental skillset working closely with expertise in molecular simulation, with strong links to national facilities (ISIS and Diamond) and future large-scale research programmes. There will also be opportunities to engage with industrial partners working on sustainable aviation fuels and advanced catalyst materials.

Both the UKCH and Ä¢¹½´«Ã½ are strongly committed to ED&I and RRI, with comprehensive strategies to tackle long-standing issues facing under-represented groups and key ethical issues, focusing on empowering, inspiring, connecting and upskilling more diverse leaders.

Ä¢¹½´«Ã½ you

Ideal candidate will have experience in the use of vibrational spectroscopy to study the adsorption of molecules into porous materials, and ideally synthesis and characterisation of zeolite catalysts. 

Apart from excellent technical skills, good organisational, communication and presentation skills are essential for this role, as is the ability to work well in an interdisciplinary environment. Interaction with partners of the UK Catalysis Hub and participation in their events will be expected.
