Post-Doctoral Research Associate in ROBOTIC SOFTWARE ENGINEERING

              [ Grade 6; Fixed-term for 36 months ]

        CRADLE partnership, Autonomy and Verification Group
    Department of Computer Science, University of Manchester, UK
https://cradlerobotics.co.uk

This position is for research within CRADLE, the "Centre for Robotic
Autonomy in Demanding and Long-lasting Environments", a partnership
between Jacobs Solutions, the University of Manchester Centre for
Robotics and AI, and UKRI. CRADLE involves providing transparent,
flexible, generic, verifiable architectures supporting practical
development and deployment of trustworthy autonomous robotics.

We are looking for a strong researcher able to conduct research in
Software Engineering, with a particular focus on the practical
problems of implementing, adapting, and proving trustworthy
modular autonomous robots. The candidate should have a background
of excellent research in Software Engineering, ideally focussed on
Autonomy or Robotics.

The overall programme aims to develop a body of cross-cutting
research across the field of Robotics, and we are therefore seeking
candidates who show a willingness and aptitude for collaborating
closely with the wider research team which includes Assurance,
Robotics, and Human Interaction researchers as well as Engineers
from Jacobs. The successful candidate will contribute to the wider
joint research programme tackling these interrelated challenges and
will undertake research in the Autonomy and Verification Network.
