Senior Researcher – AI / Machine Learning for Networked Systems - Under tillsättning eller tillsatt, ej sökbar

Do you want to develop future smart networks based on AI together with us? Do you have a passion for applying the latest developments in machine learning and artificial intelligence to tackle complex real-world problems? Then you might be the person we are looking for!

About us
Our research unit, Connected Intelligence is located in RISE offices in Kista and is a part of RISE Computer Science department. We engage in research projects with high academic quality at both international and national level. Some of our projects are also in close collaboration with industry. The Connected Intelligence unit focuses on networked and connected systems from IoT and embedded systems to smart networks - 5G and beyond.

Our research team focuses on the future networked systems with an increasing variety of applications and a more heterogeneous infrastructure - including cloud, edge, and 5G/6G networks. We like to go beyond traditional resource management with human-crafted heuristics methods and instead use scalable ML/AI approaches. We believe that this leads both to more scalable infrastructure and a reduced environmental impact.

About the role
In your role as a researcher in AI/ML-based smart networks, you will mainly work in Kista, with the flexibility to work remotely a few days per week. Our projects have great variety but are focused on edge AI, intelligent network management, and wireless 5G networks. Our unit has a strong relation with academia including KTH and Uppsala University, and thus your potential for self-development is large. You get to interact with top researchers, and there is also a possibility of co-supervising doctoral students.

Your most important tasks are to:

• Lead and participate in cutting-edge research projects with multiple partners, such as the AI@Edge EU project
• Participate in defining research activities
• Work on high-quality research proposals with internal and external partners
• Publish high-quality research results in leading publication venues
• Supervise students both at the PhD and MSc level

Who are you?
You have experience in leading and participating in research projects in the area of artificial intelligence or networking/systems and ideally in the intersection of the two. Preferably, you have a track record in acquiring project grants at both national and international level. You have participated in leading roles in international or national projects. You have relevant postgraduate education from university or equivalent, preferably with a focus on artificial intelligence/machine learning and systems (in a broad sense). It is a prerequisite to have experience in AI programming frameworks (e.g., TensorFlow, PyTorch). Likewise, systems development experience in C or C++ is a plus. Since our partners are both in Sweden and outside Sweden, we see that you have good ability to express yourself in speech and writing in English.

Are we right for each other?
Our research unit, Connected Intelligence, is growing and we want to expand our team in Kista. That's why we're looking for a researcher with a keen interest in both research and practical application of next-generation AI-enabled networks and who are ready for your next challenge.

At RISE we like difference and we are convinced that diversity contributes to an innovative environment where we together challenge boundaries and develop new knowledge and competence for the future. With us, passionate problem solvers meet to solve some of the world's most important, and perhaps most interesting, problems. We can't promise you a simple job, but what we can promise you is a bunch of dedicated colleagues and some really exciting societal challenges to deal with. You will work in a dynamic environment that gives you development opportunities both professionally and personally. With us, you will have the opportunity to make a real difference. Welcome to the Swedish research institute and innovation partner.
