Research Associate in Secure and Privacy-preserving

6 months ago


Manchester, United Kingdom The University of Manchester Full time

The EnnCore project will address a fundamental security problem in neural-based (NB) architectures, allowing system designers to specify and verify a conceptual/behavioural hardcore to the system, which can be used to safeguard NB systems against unexpected behaviour and attacks. It will pioneer the dialogue between contemporary explainable neural models and full-stack neural software verification. We will, therefore, develop methods, algorithms and tools to achieve fully-verifiable intelligent systems, which are explainable, whose correct behaviour is guaranteed, and that are privacy-preserving and robust towards attacks.

With its focus on real-world use cases, this position is a unique opportunity to make a real impact, advance state-of-the-art in applied privacy-preserving AI research, and join a top-class team of collaborators. The role also offers an outstanding opportunity for career development that is equally well-suited to an academic or industrial research path or subsequent work as a privacy engineer in the industry.

What you will get in return:

- Fantastic market leading Pension scheme
- Excellent employee health and wellbeing services including an Employee Assistance Programme
- Exceptional starting annual leave entitlement, plus bank holidays
- Additional paid closure over the Christmas period
- Local and national discounts at a range of major retailers

As an equal opportunities employer we welcome applicants from all sections of the community regardless of age, sex, gender (or gender identity), ethnicity, disability, sexual orientation and transgender status. All appointments are made on merit.
