Research Assistant / Associate in Probabilistic Machine Learning (Fixed Term)

You should hold, or be close to completing, a PhD in Machine Learning, Statistics, Mathematics, or a related discipline. Experience working in AI, whilst desirable, is not absolutely required. This is a full-time position, but we will consider applicants requesting part-time or flexible working arrangements. We welcome applications from people in all diversity groups. The post holder will be located in Central Cambridge, Cambridgeshire, UK. Key responsibilities include: research into probabilistic AI; writing papers; and producing research software. Additional responsibilities include: developing research objectives; presentations and publications; assisting with management and reporting; participating and organising Prob_AI Hub events; liaising and networking; planning and organising research resources and workshops.
