Postdoc Positions in Programming Languages

4 weeks ago


Odense, Odense Kommune, Denmark Syddansk Universitet Full time

The Department of Mathematics and Computer Science at the University of Southern Denmark, Odense, invites applications for postdoctoral research fellowships in programming languages. The positions can have a duration of up to 4 years. The hired candidates will be part of the section of Artificial Intelligence, Cybersecurity, and Programming Languages (ACP, ), an ambitious group that fosters collaboration, research excellence, and quality education.

The proposed starting time is Autumn 2024, with room for flexibility.

This position is tied to the ERC Consolidator Project "Choreographies for Distributed Systems: Reasoning, Expressivity, and Development (CHORDS)". The project aims at introducing new language abstractions, formal models, and software tools for radically changing how we can reason about and develop realistic distributed systems. To this end, the project will establish a collaborative team that will investigate novel theoretical foundations and a formally-verified toolchain for the new paradigm of choreographic programming. The successful candidate will work with the project's principal investigator (Prof. Fabrizio Montesi), who is a pioneer of the paradigm, and join one of the most prominent international research groups in the topic (the ACP section).

The Department of Mathematics and Computer Science is an inclusive and international working environment with state-of-the-art facilities and strong traditions for collaboration across sections, departments and faculties, and with other educational institutions, municipalities, and industries. The degrees offered by the department include BSc, MSc, and PhD degrees in computer science, a BSc in artificial intelligence, and an MSc degree in data science.


Candidate Profile
We are looking for highly motivated candidates interested in theory and implementation of programming languages. The ideal candidate has (or is nearing completion of) a PhD in Computer Science and experience in at least one of the following areas.

• Theory of programming languages.

• Compilers.

• Concurrent and distributed systems.

• Logical methods in computer science.

• Interactive theorem provers.
Fluency in English is required.

About the Department and the University
Based in Odense, the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science offers an inclusive and international working environment with state-of-the-art facilities as well as a strong tradition for collaboration across departments and faculties, and with other educational institutions, municipalities, and industries.

The University of Southern Denmark was founded in 1966 and now has more than 27,000 students, almost 20% of whom are from abroad. It has more than 3,800 employees, and 115 different study programs in the fields of the humanities, social sciences, natural sciences, health sciences, and engineering. Its main campus is located in Odense, the third largest city in Denmark. Odense provides family-friendly living conditions with the perfect combination of a historic city center with an urban feel and yet a close proximity to beaches and recreational areas. Its location on the beautiful island of Funen is ideal with easy access by train or highway to the bigger cities of Aarhus and Copenhagen.
