for Research
You can begin with your own interests and questions. Above all, we respect your passion for research.
We value your desire to pursue research. Start with “this topic is fascinating,” and make it your profession.
A work environment built on DENSO’s comprehensive benefits, supporting both research performance and personal well-being.
Researchers work under a discretionary work system without fixed core hours. This framework allows you to manage your schedule autonomously, maximizing research performance while maintaining a healthy work-life balance.
We combine collaborative on-site days—which foster spontaneous discussion and shared creativity—with remote work flexibility, enabling you to choose the environment best suited for focused research. This hybrid model balances team interaction with individual deep work.
Essential research expenses—including academic society memberships, society-related events, and professional materials—are covered by the organization. You can also select laptops, tablets, and displays that suit your needs within a set budget.
Shared wellness and recreational equipment is provided based on researchers’ interests. Examples include coffee makers, musical instruments, fitness equipment, and other relaxation amenities that help create an enjoyable and refreshing workplace.
Generous family-support policies include up to three years of parental leave per child, as well as up to one year of caregiving leave—ensuring you can focus on important life moments.
A comfortable and refreshing workplace environment is supported through complimentary beverages and snacks available throughout the facility.
