[visionlist] Open Position: Academic Councilor in Computer Graphics / Machine Learning (permanent, full position)

[Kolb, Andreas]

Dear colleagues,

We are looking for a senior researcher (an Academic Councilor is similar to a Lecturer/Senior Lecturer) with a strong international standing in Computer Graphics and Machine Learning.  The position primarily involves independent research and teaching activities in the field of Computer Graphics and Machine Learning, e.g., in the areas like neural graphics, differentiable rendering, scientific visualization or graphical simulation involving machine learning methods. Moreover, the person has to teach research related courses or seminars in English on Master level. We support setting up independent activities in the acquisition of third-party funded research projects.

While the position is assigned to the Computer Graphics chair, it offers wide opportunities to collaborate with other chairs in Visual Computing and Sensorics at the University of Siegen and the Center of Sensor Systems, ZESS, e.g., related to machine learning and computer vision involving, for instance, range or light-field data. 

Applicants require a scientific university degree (Master or equivalent) in the field of computer science or mathematics with focus on computer science, and a doctorate in the field of computer science with clear reference to computer graphics. We expect a high ability for scientific work and experience in the research field of computer graphics and machine learning, proven by high level publications in scientific journals, or peer-reviewed conferences, as well as pedagogical/didactic aptitude, demonstrated by experience in teaching and supervising student theses.

With appropriate performance, the appointment to an adjunct professorship is possible and is supported by the head of the chair.
