[DMANET] PostDoc Position "Industrial Problem Solving Using Symbolic and Subsymbolic AI"

FFG Exploratory Project InProSSA:
Industrial Problem Solving Using Symbolic and Subsymbolic AI

POSTDOC POSITION

The Research Institute for Symbolic Computation (RISC,
https://risc.jku.at) and the Institute for Symbolic Artificial
Intelligence (SAI, https://jku.at/sai) of the Johannes Kepler University
(JKU) Linz, Austria, offer in the frame of the exploratory FFG project
"InProSSA: Industrial problem solving using symbolic and subsymbolic AI"
a position for a person with doctoral degree in computer science,
mathematics, artificial intelligence, or related areas and (academic
and/or industrial) expertise in (some of) the following areas:

• Formal analysis and modeling of mathematical problems
• Formal languages (syntax, semantics, implementation, ...)
• Formal logic (automated reasoning, SAT/SMT solving, ...)
• Software development

The person filling this position will carry out exploratory research and
development tasks under the supervision of/in collaboration with senior
researchers of RISC, SAI and other partners of the project consortium.
The position will involve both research and development, with focus on
the design and implementation of a domain-specific modeling language for
industrial optimization/scheduling problems. Publication of the project
results in collaboration with the project partners at scientific
conferences respectively in scientific journals is expected.

The salary of the position is according to the FWF rate for postdocs (€
4752 gross salary per month) and is offered for a period of 11 months
