About this position

This postdoctoral opportunity is part of the ERC Advanced Grant project Dynamics on and of Random Graphs (Dynamics.oRG) led by Remco van der Hofstad at Eindhoven University of Technology. The project focuses on the mathematics of phase transitions for stochastic processes evolving on random graphs, asking how randomness in the network environment can alter critical behaviour.

The successful researchers will join a dedicated team of PhD students, postdocs, and collaborators working on challenging questions at the frontiers of mathematics. The research theme connects random graph theory with stochastic dynamics, with applications and motivations including the spread of infections and consensus formation on networks. The work is both collaborative and independent: you will contribute to the shared project goals while also developing your own research direction within the ERC programme.

The position sits in the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science at TU/e, an internationally connected research environment with strong links to fundamental and applied innovation. The broader setting includes a large mathematical community and an interdisciplinary atmosphere on the university’s Eindhoven campus.

Funding details

Full-time postdoc salary on Dutch university scale 10: €4,422 to €5,760 gross base salary per month, plus 8% holiday allowance and 8.3% year-end bonus; fixed-term contract for 1 year with possible 1-year extension after positive evaluation.

What's required

A PhD in probability, statistical mechanics, random graphs, or a comparable domain is required. The candidate should have demonstrable high-quality academic research outputs, intrinsic motivation to do research, and the ability to manage complex projects to completion on schedule. The post also seeks a team player who enjoys coaching PhD and Master's students, wants to develop teaching skills, and has excellent written and verbal English plus good communication and leadership skills.

How to apply

Apply via the AcademicTransfer application link. Review the application process information on the TU/e website if needed, and contact Prof.dr. Remco van der Hofstad or HR Services for further questions. Submit your application before the deadline.
