Postdoctoral Research Associate in Optimisation Algorithms, 
Combinatorics and Machine Learning
(Three Year Position)

Leverhulme Centre for Functional Materials Design University of Liverpool
Salary:	£34,805 to £40,322 pa
Closes:	25th March 2020
Job Ref:	016801

Applications are invited for an ambitious scientist with a strong track 
record of excellence to work within an interdisciplinary team of 
researchers as part of the new Centre for Functional Materials Design 
funded by the Leverhulme Trust – one of only 4 such centres funded in 
the UK in this new scheme. The successful applicant's research skills 
and experience will contribute to and determine the future and path of 
the Centre's Research.

You will have a PhD in Computer Science, Mathematics or a relevant 
discipline and excellent, transferable skills evident in the disciplines 
of computational complexity, optimisation algorithms, machine learning 
or crystal structure prediction. It is important to note that this role 
has a broad scope and that many skills sets could be relevant rather 
than recruiting to fill a narrow list of technical requirements.

The Research Themes of interest are Optimisation Algorithms, 
Combinatorics and Machine Learning. We are looking for a person with a 
strong background at least in one of these themes, but who would be able 
and interested to contribute in other two themes.

You will work within an interdisciplinary team of researchers, 
developing and implementing modern computer science methods and 
algorithms to tackle optimisation and combinatorics problems related to 
the design of inorganic crystalline materials. Your application should 
therefore set out how your skills, experience, career ambition, and 
capabilities will contribute to the success of the centre at all levels.

Professor M. Rosseinsky email: m.j.rosseinsky at liverpool.ac.uk for all 
enquiries.
