Are you a mathematical statistician who is passionate about scientific research and education and enjoys participating in multi-disciplinary projects?
At the Statistics group of the Korteweg-de Vries Instituut voor Wiskunde (KdVI), the mathematical research institute of the Faculty of Science of the University of Amsterdam, we are looking for new colleagues with expertise in mathematical statistics or mathematical data science, including (but not restricted to) computational statistics, statistical learning, and statistical data science.
The research in the Statistics group covers various aspects of mathematical statistics, including parametric and non-parametric methods, as well as methods based on Bayesian principles. This ranges from theoretical work on the performance and design of procedures in high-dimensional models to more applied work in areas such as forensic statistics, the life sciences and finance. In addition, emerging techniques from machine learning research are evaluated, to shed light on their opportunities and limitations. Another recent research focus of the group is the design and study of statistical methods for the estimation of causal models from data and their use in predicting the results of interventions on systems.
What are you going to do?
You are expected to:
International research experience is preferred.
We will base our selection on your scientific track record and on your vision for future research, as well as on your teaching achievements, qualifications, and vision for future teaching.
We offer you a tenure-track agreement for five years (which is part of a six-year temporary appointment). At the start, we will draw up an agreement with you, specifying the tenure-track requirements for research, teaching and management tasks that need to be fulfilled in order to assess progress after three years and after five years. The requirements in this agreement are negotiable and depend on your experience and scientific profile. Following a positive assessment after five years the appointment will become permanent.
Start dates are negotiable. The positions will be filled at the level of Assistant or Associate professor, depending on qualifications. The starting salary will be in accordance with university regulations for academic personnel, and depending on experience and qualifications.
