The Department of Computing is growing — Join us

We’re looking to appoint four exceptional Assistant /Associate Professors in Computing across multiple research areas.

Our Department of Computing is expanding, and we’re inviting applications for Assistant Professor/Associate Professor positions. This is an exciting opportunity to join a world-leading community driving innovation in research and education.

This is an exceptional opportunity to join one of the world’s leading computing departments, contributing to cutting-edge research, innovative teaching, and real-world impact.

We are seeking strong applications in the following broad areas:

• Programming Languages, including language design and implementation, program analysis and verification, compilers and runtime systems, type systems, domain-specific languages, program synthesis, probabilistic programming, and programming languages for emerging areas such as quantum computing and AI.
• Systems, including distributed and operating systems, machine learning systems, networking, storage, cloud and edge computing, data systems, real-time systems, and high-performance computing.
• Security, including cryptography and post-quantum security, usable security and human factors, security for AI and AI for security, blockchain and distributed ledger technologies, systems and network security, software and malware security, privacy.
• Software Engineering, including AI-assisted software development, software architecture and design, formal methods, testing, empirical software engineering, human factors, and software evolution.
• Computer Architecture, including neuromorphic computing, processor and memory system design, new computer architectures for efficiency and scalability, parallel and multi-core systems, domain-specific accelerators (e.g., for AI, graphics and vision), and quantum computing hardware.
• Theoretical Computer Science, including algorithms and data structures, complexity theory, cryptography and information theory, quantum algorithms, and theory of quantum computation.

We are committed to creating a diverse and inclusive faculty. If you’re part of a group that’s traditionally underrepresented in Computer Science, we’d especially love to hear from you.

If you’re ready to help shape the future of computing at Imperial, we’d love to hear from you.
