Several PhD positions on Linked Data / Enterprise Information Integration at Uni Bonn & Fraunhofer IAIS

*** Several PhD positions in Linked Data / Enterprise Information 
Integration ***
             at Uni Bonn & Fraunhofer IAIS (Bonn, Germany)

The Enterprise Information Systems (EIS) group at the University of Bonn 
[1] and the Organized Knowledge department at Fraunhofer IAIS [2] are 
hiring PhD students [3].

We will soon be starting several research projects on applying Linked 
Data technology to information integration in enterprises and other 
organisations.

The ideal candidate holds an MS degree in computer science or a related 
field and is able to consider both theoretical and practical 
implementation aspects in her/his work. Fluent English communication and 
a passion for developing modern software solutions (e.g. in Java/Scala, 
JavaScript and/or PHP) are fundamental requirements. Command of German 
language is a plus, but not a requirement. The candidate should have 
experience and commitment to work on the forefront of research in one of 
the following fields:

* semantic web technologies and linked data
* knowledge representations and ontology engineering
* software engineering and modern application development
* database technologies and data integration
* HCI and user interface design for Web content
* data analytics

All details can be found at: http://eis.iai.uni-bonn.de/#phd

We provide a scientifically and intellectually inspiring environment 
with an entrepreneurial mindset embedded in a world-leading university 
and one of the largest applied research organizations (Fraunhofer). 
Bonn, the former West German capital city on the banks of the Rhine 
river is located right next to Germany's fourth largest city Cologne; it 
offers an outstanding quality of life, has developed into a hub of 
international cooperation and is in easy reach of many European metropoles.

The positions start as soon as possible, is open until filled (for full 
consideration please apply until 31 July) and will be, after an initial 
probation period, granted for 3 years with the option for extension and 
promotion.  Please send your CV, an English writing sample (e.g. your 
master thesis or a publication), a letter of reference and a short 
motivational statement (incl. research and technology interests) to 
eis-leaders@cs.uni-bonn.de.

Rather interested in a postdoc with us? – We do not currently have 
vacancies, but we are happy to support strong candidates in applying for 
a Marie Skłodowska Curie Individual Fellowship with us (next deadline 11 
September [4]).
