Assistant or Associate Professor of Software Technology

The position is available in the

Software Science

(SWS) group of the

Institute for Computing and Information Sciences

(iCIS) at Radboud University. The mission of the SWS group is to do world-leading research on the use of models for design and analysis of software. The group is well known for work on high productivity software, functional programming, code generation for High-Performance Computing, array computing, model-based software engineering, model learning, model-based testing, model checking, combining formal verification and machine learning, proof assistants, and mathematical foundations. We find it important (and inspiring!) to cover the full spectrum from theory to applications in a single research group. Through collaboration with stakeholders from industry and society, we obtain a better understanding of when and how software science can help solve real-world problems. We have joint projects with, for instance, Canon Production Printing, ASML, Alfa Laval, Philips Healthcare, Google, Intel, Defensieacademie (NLDA), and our spin-off TOP Software Technology.

Radboud University's iCIS is an internationally recognised institute, consistently ranked among the top Computer Science departments in the Netherlands. iCIS comprises an enthusiastic and devoted team of excellent scholars that closely collaborate in a flat organisational structure. The Institute focuses its research on three themes: data science, digital security and software science. Each of these themes spans the full breadth from basic fundamental research to application-oriented research. Our long-term drive is to contribute to both science and society. iCIS staff members are also responsible for the Computer Science Bachelor’s and Master’s programmes, the Information Science Master’s programme, and for about 30% of the Bachelor’s and Master’s programmes in Artificial Intelligence at Radboud University. In spite of the fast-growing student numbers, these programmes are structurally evaluated as one of the best. For example, the Computer Science programme was rated best in its field in Keuzegids 2021. iCIS employees have a high level of freedom to determine the way they structure the work they carry out at Radboud University. The Institute has made a strong effort in the past few years to increase the diversity of its staff. Presently, more than half of our scientific staff has an international background.

Radboud University

We want to get the best out of science, others and ourselves. Why? Because this is what the world around us desperately needs. Leading research and education make an indispensable contribution to a healthy, free world with equal opportunities for all. This is what unites the more than 24,000 students and 5,600 employees at Radboud University. And this requires even more talent, collaboration and lifelong learning. You have a part to play!
