The project involves solving large-scale and complex optimization problems related to optimal scheduling of operations in an industrial facility. Desired qualifications are solid expertise in discrete optimization, programming languages and mathematical optimization modeling software. In particular, of great interest is experience in solving large-scale optimization problems, decomposition algorithms, and advanced use of commercial MIP solvers. A Ph.D. degree and evidence of excellence in research are required. Successful applicants are expected to maintain an active program of research. Applications should include a cover letter describing their interest in the position and the candidate's background in the areas, a curriculum vitae and research statement and at least three reference letters.
There is no deadline to apply to this position and candidates will be evaluated until the position is filled. Interested individuals should send their application to Ricardo Fukasawa (rfukasawa@uwaterloo.ca<mailto:rfukasawa@uwaterloo.ca>) and Luis Ricardez-Sandoval (laricard@uwaterloo.ca<mailto:laricard@uwaterloo.ca>). Only those applicants that fit the expected profile for this position will be contacted. The salary for this position will be similar to that offered by the NSERC postdoctoral fellowship program and commensurable with the background and activities to be developed by the applicant.
