Key Responsibilities:
  • Conduct high-quality research related to software security, open-source software development, and formal methods.
  • Work successfully in an inter-organisational team including industrial partners.
  • Disseminate the project results and present the research results in written and oral form.
  • Contribute to the culture and general strengths of the research group and the school, through engaging in the group/school activities, organising and participating in events, etc.
Requirements:
  • Proven expertise in the areas of security, formal methods, program analysis, and software engineering.
  • Experienced in programming and tool development.
  • Experience of presenting research at academic/non-academic conferences.
  • Experience of grant writing and attracting external funding.

  • Proven ability to plan the work independently with minimal supervision and adhere to a time plan to meet the deadlines while producing high-quality research.
  • Demonstrated ability and willingness to travel to present the project research results to academic and non-academic audience.
  • Professional approach in the workplace with a commitment to equality, diversity, dignity, and respect.
