About the Role

We are seeking a highly skilled Postdoctoral Research Associate to join our interdisciplinary team and contribute to the investigation and exploration of Probabilistic AI in Law Enforcement Futures. The successful candidate will have a strong background in Human-Computer Interaction and a keen interest in Responsible AI.

The PROBabLE Futures Keystone Project, led by Northumbria University, brings together academics, Law Enforcement, Government, Third Sector, and Commercial AI Industry partners to explore responsible approaches to Probabilistic AI across the law enforcement landscape. The project involves engagement with primary stakeholders to analyse and map the Probabilistic AI ecosystem in law enforcement, and the development of a future-oriented framework for responsible AI in law enforcement and criminal justice.

The candidate will be based in the Northumbria Social Computing (NorSC) research group and will work collaboratively with postdoctoral researchers from law and machine learning, as well as our law enforcement, third sector, and commercial partners.

This is a fixed-term role until 31 March 2028. Interviews will be held on week commencing 18th November 2024.

About the Team

The PROBabLE Futures Keystone Project is being delivered within the Department of Computer and Information Sciences within the research team of the PROBabLE Futures Keystone Project. The project involves working alongside our law enforcement, third sector, and commercial partners to develop a framework to understand the implications of uncertainty and to build confidence in future Probabilistic AI in law enforcement, with the interests of justice and responsibility at its heart.

About You

Applicants should hold a PhD (or equivalent experience) in Human-Computer Interaction or a relevant discipline and have demonstrable specialist expert knowledge in Interaction Design. A strong understanding of AI explainability and fairness, and technical, regulatory, and ethical issues raised by the use of AI in law enforcement and the public sector is desirable.
