[DMANET] Five tenured positions in theoretical computer science at IRIF / Université Paris Cité

Dear all,

The department of computer science of Université Paris Cité has five
openings for tenured positions in theoretical computer science,
broadly construed, which could be of interest to the readers on this
mailing-list:

- 3 associate professor (MCF) positions and
- 2 full professor (PR) positions,

with a deadline for applications on March 6, 2023 at 16:00 CET.

See the announcements in French at
https://www.irif.fr/postes/universite and
http://www.informatique.univ-paris-diderot.fr/ufr/recrutements.


# General description

Those are tenured positions (more precisely civil servant positions)
with research, teaching, and administrative duties. Here is the
official description of these types of positions in French academia:
- associate professors:
https://www.enseignementsup-recherche.gouv.fr/fr/maitres-de-conferences-46317
- full professors:
https://www.enseignementsup-recherche.gouv.fr/fr/professeur-des-universites-46367

The research profile is quite wide for all these positions: pretty
much all of theoretical computer science, in both its `track A' and
`track B' flavours, is represented within IRIF.

The teaching profile encompasses all of computer science (i.e., not
just theory), with a wide choice of courses at both undergraduate and
graduate levels. The teaching language in our computer science
department is French—as in most French universities. Accordingly, the
interviews for these positions will be carried in French.

IRIF has taken up gender equality issues and published recommendations
for hiring committees to help alleviate bias. More information can be
found on the page of our commission for gender equality at
