TECHNOLOGY (TUHH)
--
The Institute of Algorithms and Complexity at TUHH: Hamburg University
of Technology (www.algo.tuhh.de) in Hamburg, Germany offers an exciting
opportunity to work as a postdoctoral researcher at the forefront of
algorithms/optimization.
The position is on algorithms for discrete/combinatorial optimization
problems and operations research with applications in data science. The
position offers the exciting opportunity to become part of DASHH - Data
Science in Hamburg, which belongs to and is funded by the Helmholtz
Foundation, and to work on real-life data sets obtained from world-class
experiments at DESY (a natural research center) and beyond.
The position is offered for a period of 31 months. The salary of the
position is determined according to level TV-L E-14 of the German public
sector. The exact amount of salary depends on experience, family
circumstances, tax classification and other factors. Travel funding is
available, for attending conferences and workshops, and visiting other
researchers.
The successful candidate will join the TUHH Institute for Algorithms and
Complexity (www.algo.tuhh.de <https://www.algo.tuhh.de>), whose research
covers a broad spectrum of algorithmic research; this includes big data
algorithms, foundations of data science, combinatorial optimization,
approximation and parameterized algorithms, and applications in
operations research and discrete mathematics. The Institute for
Algorithms and Complexity at TU Hamburg currently hosts several
international researchers, so English is used on a daily basis as a
working language.
The institute is located in the newly built Hamburg Innovation Port

<https://www.hamburg-innovation-port.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/01-HIPtuhhlogowasser_web.jpg>),
which is located right at the Harburg harbour with great views of the
harbour and Hamburg's famous opera house (Elbphilharmonie). Several
other computer science institutes of the TU Hamburg are located in the
area, as well as DASHH - Data Science in Hamburg, the Helmholtz Graduate
School for the Structure of Matter, and the German Air and Space
Research Center (DLR). They are all located in the Free and Hanseatic
City of Hamburg, which is Germany's second largest city, home to a
population of about 1.8 million people. It is a famous city of
entertainment, trade and commerce, with several universities and much
research in algorithms.
TU Hamburg offers several attractive benefits, including subsidized
public transport for the Hamburg metropolitan area, a sports centre on
campus, family-friendly working hours, healthy campus initiatives, and more.
An excellent PhD degree in (Applied) Mathematics, Computer Science,
Operations Research, Engineering or related field is required. Affinity
with optimization, algorithms, or discrete mathematics is preferred. In
particular, background in algorithms and complexity, or mathematical
optimization is appreciated. Programming experience is considered a plus.
Interested individuals should submit their applications by 19 April
2024. For a full job description and details on how to apply see
