About the position
This is an exciting opportunity for a Lecturer or Senior Lecturer in
Algorithms at the University of Sheffield, an internationally renowned
institution.
Working in the Department of Computer Science, you will join our
Foundations of Computation (FOX) Group led by Professor Georg Struth.
Its
research topics range from the theoretical mathematical foundations
that underpin computer science to their applications in real world
contexts. The role of Lecturer is equivalent to Assistant Professor;
that of a Senior Lecturer to Associate Professor.
The
FOX is one of the largest and most diverse research groups of its type
in the UK. We are therefore seeking to appoint a Lecturer or Senior
Lecturer to strengthen and/or complement our work in the design and
analysis of algorithms and complexity theory, with specialist expertise
in an area including, but not limited to:
*Computational complexity*
- Communication, query, circuit, algebraic and proof complexity,
- Coding theory,
- Fine-grained complexity,
- Quantum computing and quantum information theory.
*Algorithm design and analysis*
- Randomised algorithms,
- Approximation algorithms,
- Parameterized complexity and fixed-parameter tractability,
- Data structures,
- Streaming algorithms and sublinear-time algorithms,
- Online algorithms, learning augmented algorithms,
- Combinatorial optimisation,
- Mathematical optimization and linear programming,
- Distributed computing.
*Algorithms for artificial intelligence*
- Theoretical foundations of algorithms for AI,
- Theory of bio-inspired optimisation algorithms and evolutionary
computation,
- Randomised search heuristics,
- Automated algorithm selection, generation, and configuration
(parameter tuning).
*Algorithmic game theory*
- Mechanism design and combinatorial auctions.
You
will hold a PhD in computer science or a related area, and you will be
able to conduct research to the highest standards. You will secure
research funding, publish in high impact journals and conferences,
supervise research students, and manage research projects. As a teacher,
you will play a key role in maintaining our reputation for high-quality
teaching by designing, delivering, and assessing undergraduate and
postgraduate-level courses in computer science. We seek candidates who
will be able to make a distinctive individual contribution to our
algorithms research portfolio.
We’re one of
the best not-for-profit organisations to work for in the UK. The
University’s Total Reward Package includes a competitive salary, a
generous Pension Scheme and annual leave entitlement, as well as access
to a range of learning and development courses to support your personal
and professional development.
