Connectionists: Three-year postdoc position in Complex Systems and Network Science

[Tiago de Paula Peixoto]

Dear colleagues,

We’re hiring a post-doctoral researcher to join the Inverse Complexity Lab (https://skewed.de/lab) at IT:U, Linz, Austria.

We are looking for an early-stage or more advanced postdoctoral scholar who is interested in building on our ongoing projects, or developing their own research agenda related to inverse problems in network science, complex systems modeling, and/or connections to machine learning.

This position is not bound to a particular research project, and the successful applicant will enjoy intellectual independence and freedom to choose research topics.

We’re seeking applicants with a background in Physics, Computer Science, Statistics, Applied Mathematics, or related fields, and with an interest in interdisciplinary research.

This position is guaranteed for 3 years. The gross salary range is € 66,532 to € 70,000 (corrected for inflation), depending on previous experience.

The employment conditions in Austria include completely free health care (also for family members), social security benefits, 25 days per year of paid vacations, flexible working hours, and possibility of home office.

In addition, IT:U will provide a KlimaTicket—a unified transport pass which gives free access to the entire transportation system in Austria, including trains and local public transport.

IT:U (https://it-u.at) is a brand new public university in Austria, which began operations with its first cohort of professors in 2024, and is devoted to interdisciplinary research. It is co-located with the Johannes Kepler Universität in Linz, at the Science Park campus.

Linz is the third largest city in Austria with a population of 200k, centrally located only 1h15m away from Vienna by train, and short connections to Germany, Italy, and other neighboring countries.

The working language at IT:U is English.

The deadline for application is November 30, 2024.

Best,
Tiago Peixoto
