About this position
Johannes Kepler University Linz is advertising a full-time, six-year postdoc / university assistant position in operations research and business analytics at the Institute for Business Analytics and Technology Transformation. The position is linked to the research group led by Professor Markus Sinnl, whose work focuses on optimization, mixed integer programming, bilevel optimization, multi-objective optimization, and the hybridization of optimization with artificial intelligence and machine learning.
The postdoctoral researcher will conduct original research, publish in high-ranking journals, present at international conferences, teach two courses per semester, co-supervise master’s and bachelor’s theses, contribute to administrative tasks, and collaborate on research projects. The advertised research environment emphasizes both theoretical and computational aspects of optimization and applications such as business analytics, systems biology, social network analysis, districting, facility location, and network design.
Eligible backgrounds include mathematics, computer science, statistics, operations research, machine learning, and quantitatively oriented social/economic sciences, or equivalent qualifications. The post specifically asks for experience in modeling and implementing algorithms for optimization problems, programming skills in C/C++, Python, Java, or Julia, journal publications appropriate to academic age, teaching experience in business analytics or related areas, and strong English proficiency (C1). German is not required.
Funding and terms: the role is a paid full-time university position (40 hours/week) with a minimum salary of €5,014.30 gross per month, paid 14 times per year, under collective agreement job grade B1. This is a job-style postdoctoral opening rather than a scholarship.
Application deadline: 2026-06-24. Applicants should apply through the JKU job portal and submit a motivation letter, detailed CV, certificates, list of PhD courses and grades, PhD thesis (or a three-page English abstract if the thesis is in another language), and a list of publications.
