Do you like solving challenges in cyber security? Do you want to become part of a growing team of cybersecurity researchers at the University of Amsterdam whose research contributes to securing our digital world? The Theory of Computer Science (TCS) and Complex Cyber Infrastructure (CCI) research groups of the Informatics Institute are looking for a new assistant professor in cyber security. You will be able to hire a PhD student as part of the startup-package.

You will conduct research in the “Challenges in Cyber Security” project, one of the few projects receiving funding in the prestigious NWO Gravitation program. In cooperation with researchers from TU Eindhoven, Radboud University Nijmegen, VU Amsterdam, and CWI, you will work on the grand challenges of cybersecurity in areas such as cryptography, software security, or physical security. Besides cutting-edge research, you will also contribute to education – for example, in the top-rated Security and Network Engineering MSc program – and other activities, including acquisition and management of funded research projects, supervision of PhD students, and supervision of BSc/MSc graduation projects.
