[TYPES/announce] Tenure-track Openings at Max Planck Institutes in Computer Science

[Catalin Hritcu]

The Max Planck Institutes for Informatics <https://www.mpi-inf.mpg.de/>
 (Saarbrücken), Software Systems <https://www.mpi-sws.org/> (Saarbrücken
and Kaiserslautern), and Security and Privacy
<https://www.mpi-sp.org/> (Bochum),
invite applications for tenure-track faculty in all areas of computer
science. We expect to fill several positions.

A doctoral degree in computer science or related areas and an outstanding
research record are required. Successful candidates are expected to build a
team and pursue a highly visible research agenda, both independently and in
collaboration with other groups.

The institutes are part of a network of over 80 Max Planck Institutes,
Germany’s premier basic-research organisations. MPIs have an established
record of world-class, foundational research in the sciences, technology,
and the humanities. The institutes offer a unique environment that combines
the best aspects of a university department and a research laboratory:
Faculty enjoy full academic freedom, lead a team of doctoral students and
post-docs, and have the opportunity to teach university courses; at the
same time, they enjoy ongoing institutional funding in addition to
third-party funds, a technical infrastructure unrivaled for an academic
institution, as well as internationally competitive compensation.

We maintain an international and diverse work environment and seek
applications from outstanding researchers worldwide. The working language
is English; knowledge of the German language is not required for a
successful career at the institutes.

Qualified candidates should apply on our application website (
apply.cis.mpg.de). To receive full consideration, applications should be
received by *December 15th, 2020*.

The Max Planck Society wishes to increase the number of women in those
areas where they are underrepresented. Women are therefore explicitly
encouraged to apply. The Max Planck Society is also committed to increasing
the number of employees with severe disabilities in its workforce.
Applications from persons with severe disabilities are expressly desired.

The initial tenure-track appointment is for five years; it can be extended
to seven years based on a positive midterm evaluation in the fourth year. A
permanent contract can be awarded upon a successful tenure evaluation in
the sixth year.
