Job Postings
The Jet Propulsion Laboratory hosts postdoctoral scholars whose studies cover all aspects of
Earth, Planetary, Astrophysical, and Technology research. New opportunities frequently arise
and applications are welcomed.
The appointees will be guided by a JPL advisor to ensure that the research will result in publications in the open literature. The positions are open immediately and will remain open until filled. Appointments are contingent upon completion of a Ph.D. and annual starting salaries can vary somewhat according to the applicant's qualifications.
