Full Time, 12 Months fixed term contract

Join us and be part of a vibrant community at Loughborough University.

Here’s more about the role and what we’re looking for:

This position supports project funded by the EPSRC ‘Emerge’ Place Based Impact Accelerator Account. The project involves developing and refining a smartphone app to assess and monitor breathing patterns. This will support improved rehabilitation outcomes for patients with Breathing Pattern Disorder (BPD), a common but under-diagnosed cause of breathlessness. BPD is associated with frightening symptoms, so this project has the potential to transform rehabilitation outcomes and quality of life outcomes for patients.

The role will involve app development for a mobile device to monitor and classify breathing patterns from video data. You will be working alongside the project team to incorporate stakeholder feedback and move the product along the regulatory pathway. Occasional travel will be involved to support meetings with stakeholders and to undertake system testing in clinical environments.

At Loughborough, we strive for better, think differently, challenge convention and take action. We are passionate about finding solutions to the major problems faced by society and the planet, and we create opportunities for those with the drive, the ambition, and the determination to apply themselves in the pursuit of better.

About the Department

The School of Sport Exercise and Health Sciences (SSEHS) is a multi-disciplinary school committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive academic community. It upholds the highest standards of excellence in research, innovation, and pedagogy across the full spectrum of disciplines within sport, exercise, health and wellbeing.

About You

To be successful in this role we are looking for candidates with the following key experience and skills.

Experience of mobile device application development
Experience of image feature extraction and classification
Research background in a relevant area of computer science
Ability to programme in Python and / or Kotlin
Ability to write clear documentation
Well-organised with an ability to work to deadlines
Ability to comply with relevant requirement in relation to Research Ethics, Data Protection and Good Clinical Practice
Ability to communicate well via presentations and written reports to the project team and collaborators and a variety of professional, clinical and patient stakeholders.

Informal enquiries should be directed to Dr Sam Winter, Principal Investigator, via email to [email protected]

For more information refer to the Job Description and Person Specification.

Closing Date: 22 June 2026

Loughborough University is committed to allowing its employees to work dynamically with a combination of working on campus and remotely, where possible. This has been identified as a role that could work dynamically and, if successful, your line manager will discuss these informal arrangements with you.
