Senior Researcher Analytics and Artificial Intelligence

We are looking for a Senior Researcher to join us in creating "Technology for a better society".

Together with our industry partners, we deliver applied research to uncover new knowledge and solutions that contribute to sustainable value creation, improved resource utilization and new market opportunities.

The Analytics And AI Group Is Currently Counting 11 Researchers And 2 PhD Students. We Do Research And Development Of Methods For Application Of AI And Machine Learning In Industrial Systems. In Particular, We Specialise In

• Hybrid AI: The combination of machine learning and other system information, such as mathematical models.
• The combination of machine learning and optimization/planning, including reinforcement learning and model predictive control.
• Industrial application of machine learning. Some examples of applications are the development of automated warehouse robots, decision support in wastewater treatment, hybrid models of wind turbines, and improved coordination of road construction machinery
  
  

We’re now looking to expand the group with a Senior Researcher with experience in control theory, machine learning and software development in teams. Experience in project management and development will be a strong advantage. As a researcher in our group, you will join a dynamic team of talented and creative colleagues with a passion for technology.
