We aim to attract the best talent in the respective research fields and expect the following:

  • an outstanding university and, if applicable, PhD degree (or equivalent) in computer science, mathematics, electrical engineering, or a relevant area;
  • research experience, preferably in programming languages, compilers, applied mathematics, and optimization techniques;
  • a strong background in compiler, code generation, and machine learning would be beneficial;
  • an independent, target- and solution-driven work attitude;
  • inter- and multidisciplinary thinking;
  • an integrative and cooperative personality with excellent communication and social skills;
  • fluency in English - written and oral;
  • knowledge of compiler frameworks such as LLVM IR, TVM, or MLIR is highly beneficial.

What we offer:

You will join a team of enthusiastic researchers who creatively pursue their research agenda. The chair is a part of the Center for Advancing Electronics Dresden, which offers plenty of resources and structures for career development.
