Tenure-track or tenured position in Responsible AI

Dear all,

At CWI, we are looking for a talented, experienced scientist who is keen to develop their own innovative line of fundamental research related to e.g. bias, fairness, human oversight, or ethics in cutting-edge AI technology. We are particularly looking for women (incl. people identifying as) in an attempt to somewhat repair the gender balance in the institute. We welcome applications from both early career researchers (as of last year PhD) and highly experienced researchers (comparable to associate or full professor level). Depending on the level of seniority, a tenure track or a tenured position will be offered. 

The HCDA group investigates human-centered, responsible AI in the culture and media sectors. Current research topics in the group include: detecting offensive colonial terminology in knowledge graphs; measuring bias and diversity in recommender systems; developing transparent techniques for misinformation detection; predicting political bias of crowd workers; and studying bias against the LGBTIQA+ community in large language models. We maintain close collaborations with professionals from the culture and media sectors, as well as social scientists and humanities scholars, through the Cultural AI Lab and the AI, Media and Democracy Lab. These interdisciplinary labs provide us with opportunities to work with real data and real-world use cases.

Next to developing an innovative research line, the ideal candidate will explore collaboration opportunities within the research group and/or within the two interdisciplinary labs, acquire funds to grow our research capacity for responsible AI, and help strengthen the role of CWI as the national institute for computer science and mathematics. For tenure track or tenured positions at CWI there is only a 10% teaching requirement.

Best regards, 
Laura
