Kongens Lyngby, Lyngby-Tårbæk Kommune, Denmark DTU - Technical University of Denmark Full time

At DTU, we are seeking a highly motivated researcher to join our Human-Centred AI research agenda. As part of the CXAI project, you will contribute to developing new approaches for culturally explainable AI systems.

This is an exciting opportunity to work at the intersection of anthropology, technology, and artificial intelligence. You will be part of a dynamic team exploring the socio-technical aspects of human-centred AI, with a focus on value alignment and cultural values in LLM outputs.

Job Description

We are looking for a PhD candidate with strong foundations in computational methods and the anthropology of technology. Your expertise in setting up design-based field experiments with users and integrating computational methods and anthropological perspectives will be invaluable in this role.

As a member of the ECHOlab, you will have the opportunity to collaborate with leading researchers in the field and contribute to the development of the Observatory for Human-Centred Engineering.

Responsibilities and Qualifications

The ideal candidate will have a two-year master's degree (120 ECTS points) or a similar degree with an academic level equivalent to a two-year master's degree. Practical experience with LLMs and computational methods is essential, as well as a background in anthropology or a related cultural science.

You must be prepared for shorter field trips to Norway, Sweden, and Finland and take an interest in cross-disciplinary work while situating your research within Science and Technology Studies/Anthropology of Technology.
