About this position

This postdoctoral project sits in automated program verification at the Department of Information Technology, Uppsala University, within the Division of Computing Science and the Programming Languages group.

The research is focused on making it easier for developers to write correct and efficient numerical programs. A central challenge is floating-point rounding error, and the project explores ways to verify numerical code that is widely used in safety-critical embedded systems, data analysis, weather forecasting, physics, and engineering.

The position combines theory and implementation. On the theory side, the successful candidate will help develop new automated verification techniques for numerical programs. On the implementation side, the work aims at practical tools and methods that can be used on real-world code. The advert also highlights related directions such as specification inference, fault localisation, and optimisation approaches that improve the usability of verifiers.

The Programming Languages group provides the research environment for the postdoc. It is described as a collaborative group with senior researchers and PhD students working on programming language design, program verification, and software engineering, and it meets regularly in a supportive setting.

The role includes research administration and participation in project meetings, and may include some teaching within the department depending on interest and course availability.
