The Maersk Mc-Kinney Moller Institute (MMMI) at the University of Southern Denmark (SDU) invites applications for a three-year PhD position in Low-Code Development for Logistics Tasks in Mobile Robotics. The position is available as soon as possible and the workplace is at SDU’s main campus in Odense.
About the PhD project:
Logistics tasks in low-volume production represent an important opportunity for automatization via mobile robots. However, for successful application, easy programming solutions are needed to address the variability of the spatial context in full 3D. This project aims to provide an adaptive and re-configurable low-code programming approach for this problem and demonstrate the approach with the mobile platform of Enabled Robotics (ER). The position is part of the project “Low-Code Programming of Spatial Contexts for Logistic Tasks in Mobile Robotics” funded by the Innovation Fund Denmark (IFD) through the Digital Research Centre Denmark (DIREC).
WHAT WE EXPECT:
We are looking for a highly motivated, creative, and ambitious student with an excellent command of English (written and spoken) who can work well both independently and as part of a team. The candidate should have a master’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or Robotics; a genuine interest in interdisciplinary research; and a drive to conduct applied research in collaboration with industry. Experience in cyber-physical systems, machine learning algorithms, and excellent programming skills are strongly desired. Experience in robot programming, computer vision, and human-computer interaction is a plus. The ideal candidate is competent to acquire knowledge and skills in new topics to conduct high-quality research, present the results at international conferences, and publish in peer-reviewed scientific journals. We also expect the candidate to take part in the teaching activities of the Software Engineering section.
WHAT WE OFFER:
The successful applicant will join the Software Engineering section at SDU. The section has grown substantially over the last years with researchers working on a wide range of topics around software development. The project is part of a collaboration involving SDU Software Engineering, SDU Robotics, Enabled Robotics (ER), and Roskilde University (RUC). The student will spend most of the time at SDU in Odense, but significant time at ER (located 5 km from SDU) is also planned to support collaboration on technology development.
As the 3rd largest city in Denmark, Odense provides the perfect combination of a historic city center with an urban field yet a close proximity to beaches and recreational areas. Its location on the beautiful island of Funen is ideal with easy access by train or highway to the bigger cities of Aarhus and Copenhagen; direct trains can take you straight to Copenhagen airport in less than 2 hours. Since 1966 the city has been a university town, and strong collaborative ties are in place between the University of Southern Denmark and the many Danish and international corporations in the region. As the birthplace of Hans Christian Andersen, Denmark’s famous fairytale author, the city is home to a vibrant and creative population that hosts numerous festivals and markets throughout the year.
FURTHER INFORMATION:
Further information about this position is available via email from Associate Professor Thiago Rocha Silva ([email protected]) or Associate Professor Aljaz Kramberger ([email protected]).
If you experience technical problems, you must contact [email protected].
CONDITIONS OF EMPLOYMENT:
Applicants are required to have a master’s degree (equivalent to a Danish master’s degree) at the time of enrollment and employment. Employment as a PhD fellow is a 3-year salaried position (start salary amounts to approx. 3.748 EUR per month incl. supplements).
Employment of a PhD fellow can only happen after the Head of the PhD School has approved the candidate for admission to the PhD school. Employment and enrollment will cease without further notice at the end of the period.
A PhD fellow is not allowed to have any kind of sideline employment, while enrolled as PhD fellow at the faculty.
Employment is governed by the Protocol on PhD Research Fellows signed by the Danish Ministry of Finance and the Danish Confederation of Professional Associations. Please check links for more information on salary and taxation.
