Copenhagen, Copenhagen, Denmark PARETO SECURITIES AS Full time

At PARETO SECURITIES AS, we are seeking highly motivated individuals to join our research team as postdoctoral researchers in human-computer interaction and game theory.

About the Role

We are looking for talented researchers who have a strong background in human-computer interaction and game design theory. As a postdoctoral researcher, you will be responsible for investigating current theory use in HCI/games research and practice, developing approaches to make theory more usable, and evaluating the effectiveness of such interventions.

You will collaborate with Associate Professor Elisa Mekler, an expert in HCI games research and PI of the EU-funded ERC StG project THEORYCRAFT. The successful candidate will be part of the Play, Culture, and AI Section at ITU, but also have frequent opportunities to engage with the Human-Computer Interaction and Design Section.

The duration of each postdoc position is 1- to 2-years. You will receive mentorship and support in clarifying your career goals and improving your profile in the relevant areas. Besides adding to your portfolio of top-tier publications, you will contribute to teaching in ITU's educational programmes (specifically, Msc in Games and/or BSc in Digital Design & Interactive Technology).

Key Responsibilities:

  • Investigate current theory use in HCI/games research and practice
  • Develop approaches to make theory more usable
  • Evaluate the effectiveness of such interventions

Requirements:

  • PhD-degree with research experience in HCI, game design, game production, and/or design theory
  • Comprehensive publication track record in relevant fields
  • Teaching experience in HCI and/or games-related subjects is desired
