[DMANET] Lecturer / Senior Lecturer / Reader positions in Cybersecurity, School of Computing Science, University of Glasgow

The School of Computing Science invites applications for the post of Lecturer / Senior Lecturer / Reader (based on experience and qualifications) in Cybersecurity.

We are particularly interested in applicants with outstanding achievements in areas covering embedded and networked systems security and resilience, operating systems security, hardware security, data privacy, and cryptography (the latter may be relevant to some members of this mailing list). We also welcome applications from those working on formal methods for security or applying programming language approaches to security.

We have a long-standing record in areas spanning topics related to the security and resilience of networked systems, and the security and safety for Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS). We have expanded our portfolio into hardware security, software verification, IoT privacy as well as human-centered and usable security. We are currently hosting two out of the nine projects funded nationally by the UKRI digital security by design Industrial Strategy Challenge Fund (ISCF) in 2020 to explore hardware capabilities in designing secure systems. We have also recently been awarded five out of a total of eighteen projects from the 2nd Strategic Research Fund (SRF) Funding Call of the PETRAS National Centre of Excellence for IoT Systems Cybersecurity. We are hosting the Cyber Defence Lab, a unique laboratory facility providing exclusive access to a set of safety-critical network infrastructures, hosting data from digital twins of several UK critical infrastructures.

The postholder will develop, lead and sustain research of international standard in Computing Science; contribute to teaching, assessment, project supervision, and curriculum design at undergraduate and postgraduate levels; and participate in School management and organisation.

For appointment at Reader you will have an outstanding track record of national and international distinction and leadership in research, including publications, income and awards, bringing external recognition and distinction to yourself and the University.

Two positions are available. These positions are equivalent to US tenure track Assistant or Associate Professor.
