A postdoctoral position is open at the Department of Informatics at the 
University of Fribourg (Switzerland) within the Decision Support & 
Operations Research group. The successful candidate will work on our 
Optimization of train crew assignment to activity segments project 
funded by the SBB Research Fund. The goal is to develop efficient 
algorithms to assign train crews to so-called activity segments. This 
step is of great importance, since it drives strategic decisions 
impacting not only overall costs, but also employee schedules and 
satisfaction, reliability in case of unexpected lack of staff, as well 
as training and hiring of specialized collaborators at specific locations.

The postdoctoral position is fully funded for 1 year. Starting date is 
as soon as possible. We offer a competitive gross salary starting at 
around 80’000 CHF per year. The postdoctoral researcher gets the 
opportunity to attend international conferences and to travel and learn 
from leading experts through our wide network of academic and industrial 
collaborations.

The candidate must:

- have a PhD degree in Operations Research, Computer Science, 
Information Systems, Mathematics, or related domain.

- have a strong background in applied combinatorial optimization and 
integer programming.

- have strong programming skills

- be able to develop and implement optimization methods for large-scale, 
real-world problems.

To apply, please send a complete CV, a motivation letter and some 
references to Prof. Bernard Ries:
