Academic Staff Positions in Cybersecurity

Singapore Institute of Technology (SIT) invites applications for Academic Staff positions in Cybersecurity. We are building a modern cybersecurity capability that brings together applied learning, competency-based education, translational research, and close partnership with industry. We welcome outstanding candidates across the breadth of cybersecurity, and we are especially interested in colleagues who can help SIT build stronger capability in Threat Operations. Appointment may be made at a rank aligned with experience and profile.

Academic Staff positions in SIT comprises of both Faculty and Professional Officers. They play distinctive yet complementary roles in advancing SIT’s mission in education and applied research. Faculty provide academic leadership in the design, delivery, and continual enhancement of programmes, ensuring academic rigour and industry relevance, while Professional Officers, as technical specialists, embed current and emerging industry practices and support practice-oriented delivery. Together, they strengthen SIT’s applied learning environment through hands-on, real-world approaches that enhance students’ industry readiness. In applied research, faculty lead translational research and innovation in collaboration with industry, bridging knowledge creation with practical application, while Professional Officers contribute deep technical expertise and industry experience to translate concepts into implementation, prototyping and deployment, thereby ensuring impactful and industry-relevant outcomes.

Why join SIT

SIT is Singapore’s first University of Applied Learning and the University for Industry. Our students learn in authentic environments, work on real problems with external partners, and undertake substantial workplace learning through the Integrated Work Study Programme. Our approach to education is explicitly competency-based, with a focus on demonstrated capability, workplace relevance, and flexible pathways for learners.

At SIT, we welcome both academic candidates, and practitioner-academics with substantial industry, government, or operational cybersecurity experience. Candidates should be able to translate their expertise into rigorous teaching, authentic learning experiences, applied scholarship, translational work, and industry relevant outcomes and impact.

Areas of interest in cybersecurity

We welcome applicants with expertise in one or more areas across the cybersecurity spectrum, and are especially interested in candidates whose work can strengthen the university’s capability in Threat Operations. Relevant areas include threat detection and analysis, threat hunting, technical investigations, incident response, adversary tradecraft, operational threat intelligence, security operations, and detection engineering.

We also welcome applicants working in areas that strengthen operational cyber defence, such as purple teaming, red teaming, AI for security, security automation, adversary emulation, and cyber range or validation environments. Applications from outstanding candidates across the wider cybersecurity spectrum remain strongly welcome.

Key Responsibilities

You will contribute to SIT’s mission through a combination of teaching, curriculum development, applied scholarship, and external engagement in the area of cybersecurity.

Depending on rank and profile, responsibilities may include


	teaching undergraduate, postgraduate, and continuing education learners
	designing modules, labs, case-based learning, and authentic assessments
	supervising capstone projects, industry-linked projects, and graduate students where appropriate
	contributing to programme development across pre-employment and continuing education offerings
	building applied research, translational work, or practice-based scholarship with external relevance
	developing partnerships with industry, government, and professional communities
	contributing to interdisciplinary initiatives across computing, engineering, AI, and other applied domains


Teaching and educational contributions

At SIT, strong teaching means building learning experiences that are hands-on, rigorous, and close to practice. That may include secure system design projects, digital forensics investigations, threat-hunting exercises, red-blue or purple-team style activities, malware analysis labs, incident response simulations, or projects shaped by real operational and sectoral constraints. Our educational model values authenticity, workplace relevance, and the ability to assess whether learners can perform, not only whether they can recall.

You should be able to contribute to curriculum design, develop modern teaching materials, mentor students well, and work with colleagues to improve programmes over time. Experience with applied learning, competency-based education, workplace learning, or industry-based training will be valuable.

Research / scholarly / translational contributions

SIT values scholarship that moves beyond publication alone. We are interested in research and scholarly work that can be tested, translated, adopted, or used to solve real problems.

This may take different forms: applied research with industry or government; translational work that leads to methods, tools, datasets, or deployable capabilities; practice-based scholarship grounded in operational experience; sector-facing evaluations; or interdisciplinary work that brings cybersecurity into real systems and real environments. The strongest candidates will show a clear line of sight between their expertise and tangible external value.

Candidate profile / qualifications

We welcome applications from candidates with strong academic, applied, or practice-oriented profiles.
