Oxford is currently inviting applications for several post-doctoral research
positions at Grade 07S and Grade 08S levels.

Researchers are required to work on automated methods for formal verification of
software under the direction of Daniel Kroening in the Department of Computer
Science, University of Oxford. Applicants should have (or shortly expect to
receive) a PhD in Computer Science or a closely related field and should have
documented prior programming experience. The post offers scope for both
theoretical and applied work; candidates of either inclination will be
considered.

The successful candidate will be required to develop research questions within a
specific context, conduct individual research, analysing detailed and complex
qualitative and/or quantitative data from a variety of sources, and generate
original ideas by building on existing concepts.

Candidates with applied focus should demonstrate strong programming and systems
skills, experience of tool construction, and knowledge of program analysis.
Candidates with a background in theoretical computer science should be able to
demonstrate experience with automata theory, abstract interpretation, model
checking or decision procedures.

Candidates with a background in one of the following areas are especially
encouraged to apply:

* embedded systems

* unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs)

* validation of evolving software

* operating system kernels

* shared-variable concurrency


Posts are full-time appointments, and available initially for up to 3 years with
