------------------------------------------------------------

We are looking for two senior researchers to work on the projects of UKRI/EPSRC 
with the research programme includes collaboration with several companies and 
organisations.

Candidates for the senior research associate positions will need to have 
expertise in either:

1. theoretical computer science such as verification, formal semantics, type 
theory, concurrency theory or automata theory;
2. mechanisation (Coq, Isabelle, Agda, etc);
3. programming language design and implementation; or
4. Quantum computing (verification, concurrent processes, software engineering)

The projects cover a wide range of subjects hence no knowledge of session types 
is required.)

The focus of our group is theories and their applications which include:

-- programming languages (Rust, Go, Scala, Haskell, OCaml, ...)

-- mechanisation of session types meta-theory (Coq, Isabelle, Agda, etc)

-- verification, automata theories, linear logic and concurrency theory;

-- quantum computing (theory, verification, and software); and

-- other applications of session types such as security, blockchains and 
Cyber-Physical Systems

The candidate will work on either

-- POST (Yoshida's Established Career Fellowship Project)
-- TaRDIS 
(https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.project-tardis.eu/__;!!IBzWLUs!Ts6SZrDSVn9WjdcEjvKcTMQe81etvDddT59Xqm1uKJUPeYsEwqyTs7WX3dJW6TvBmuGEXRQGmmipmgl0zbQLSLwu2KjD9Y4wVLTEEDjdel8$
 ); or
-- VSL-Q (Verified Simulation for Large Quantum Systems)

The candidate is welcome to discuss the details about the above project(s) with 
the contact person:
