About us:
-------------
The Department of Informatics is looking to recruit a Lecturer in Computer Science.
This is an exciting time to join us as we continue to grow our department and realise our vision of a diverse, inclusive and innovative department of Informatics at one of the most prestigious universities in the UK. We seek applicants who will support us in our ambitions in inclusivity and diversity.
About the role:
------------------
As we continue to grow and strengthen our department, we are seeking to appoint two lecturers in computer science. We welcome applications from candidates who have an international profile in research in any of the core areas of Computer Science. Areas of research expertise of particular interest include software engineering, devops, testing and verification, software performance engineering, software architectures, cloud and web computing, programming techniques, programming languages, and databases.
To realise our mission, we look at computer science challenges with a broad perspective and regularly sit in the program committees of and publish in top-tier and well-known venues in computer science. Top-quality research establishes members of the Department as leaders in their fields, but it is its transformative aspect that provides the opportunity to serve the society while supporting King's as an outstanding institution in science and technology. As such, the Department has strong links with industry, which engages with us in collaborative research projects.
We offer undergraduate and postgraduate education (in both computer science and artificial intelligence), catering for the needs of our students and the industries in which they will work. It is essential that applicants have the enthusiasm and commitment needed to ensure the success of these programmes. The successful applicants for these posts will be involved in delivering teaching in core areas of computer science.
The successful candidates will be invited to join one of our research groups and will have the opportunity to contribute to cross-cutting hubs (see https://www.kcl.ac.uk/nms/depts/informatics/research/index.aspx ). Research collaboration across research groups, with departmental hubs and with other Departments in the Faculty and across the College is strongly encouraged.
