PhD and Postdoc Positions in Formal Methods, Programming, Verification, and Lean University of Southern Denmark in Denmark

EPFL (École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne) is advertising a Postdoc position in the Networked Systems Abstractions Lab (LASeR) in Lausanne, Switzerland. The lab works on programming languages and formal reasoning tools for networked systems , with research directions including: - Design and semantics of network programming languages in the NetKAT family, including quantitative and probabilistic extensions - Scalable verification using symbolic automata and related decision procedures - Rout...

The University of Southern Denmark invites applications for a two-year postdoctoral researcher position in the Software Engineering section of the Maersk Mc-Kinney Moller Institute in Odense, Denmark. The project is part of the VILLUM Experiment project “Is Correctness Necessary? An Experiment in Test-Free Program Repair” . The research addresses a central challenge in modern software engineering: large language models and AI coding assistants can generate and modify software rapidly, while esta...

This postdoctoral research associate position is based in the Department of Computer Science at the New Jersey Institute of Technology and is part of an NSF-funded project focused on improving the security of large language model-assisted coding. The successful candidate will work primarily with Professor Iulian Neamtiu and may also collaborate with other CS faculty members. The project develops methods to make AI-generated code safer by combining program analysis and verification with LLM-based...

PhD opportunity in photonic quantum error correction at the Niels Bohr Institute, University of Copenhagen. The project sits within the Novo Nordisk Foundation Quantum Computing Programme (NQCP), an international quantum computing initiative in Copenhagen that works on scalable quantum processor technologies, quantum algorithms and applications, with a long-term goal of fault-tolerant hardware and algorithms for life-science-relevant problems. This PhD focuses on fault-tolerant photonic quantum ...

The Keystone project at EPFL focuses on building a formally verified ML inference engine at the intersection of formal methods and high-performance systems. The work combines interactive theorem proving with secure computer systems and ML infrastructure, aiming to make verified systems competitive with unverified ones in development effort, features, and performance. The postdoctoral researcher will contribute to the design and construction of a machine-verified LLM inference engine . Possible r...
