Postdoc R&D in Network Security (MLSysOps) Apply Now Job description

The Cybersecurity (CYS) group at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Science (EEMCS) invites applications for full-time post-doc candidates in the area of cybersecurity. Our group conducts research in a range of cybersecurity topics, including, secure data analytics, privacy, cloud security, system security, and network security. We aim to make the world a safer place as most of our activity and data move online. We design, develop, and evaluate interdisciplinary solutions that combine all fields of computer sciences: artificial intelligence, systems, and theory. We aim to publish our results at top conferences and journals, transfer our scientific know-how and technologies to students and our public and private partners in the field of cybersecurity, and have impact in society and the research community.

This position aims to design and implement secure solutions for anomaly detection in security/trust management, zero trust management based on network packet meta-tagging and the principles of least privilege, micro segmentation, device access control, lateral movement prevention, and multi-factor authentication. The position is supported by the Horizon Europe project MLSysOps. Successful candidates will have the opportunity to work closely with world-class researchers at TU Delft and our industrial collaborators in Europe.

Requirements

Applicants must have the following qualifications:

  • PhD degree in computer science, engineering, math or related.
  • Strong knowledge background in network security.
  • Good programming/coding background.
  • The ability to work collaboratively in a group/team.
  • Be able to work with industrial partners.
  • Good English communication and writing skills.
  • Preferably have related blockchain R&D projects experiences.
  • Conditions of employment

    Salary and benefits are in accordance with the Collective Labour Agreement for Dutch Universities (based on scale 10: € 2.960,00 - € 4.670,00). The employment contract is offered for 1 year, upon proven suitability, an extension of one additional year. The position is open for 36-40 hours per week. The TU Delft offers a customisable compensation package, a discount on health insurance and sport memberships, and a monthly work costs contribution. Flexible work schedules can be arranged.

    For international applicants we offer the Coming to Delft Service and Partner Career Adviceto assist you with your relocation. An International Children's Centre offers childcare and there is an international primary school.

    Faculty Electrical Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Science

    The Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Science (EEMCS) brings together three disciplines - electrical engineering, mathematics and computer science. Combined, they reinforce each other and are the driving force behind the technology we use in our daily lives. Technology such as the electricity grid, which our faculty is helping to make future- proof. We are also working on a world in which humans and computers reinforce each other. We are mapping out disease processes using single cell data, and using mathematics to simulate gigantic ash plumes after a volcanic eruption. There is plenty of room here for ground-breaking research. We educate innovative engineers and have excellent labs and facilities that underline our strong international position. In total, more than 1,100 employees and 4,000 students work and study in this innovative environment.
