We are expanding our core research team at the University of Bonn, looking for a Postdoctoral Researcher in Natural Language Processing and Machine Learning. (The position is offered at a full-time TV-L E13 level, corresponding to the gross salary of cca 57,000 Eur/year, covering health and social insurance and 30 vacation days. The duration of the contract is two years, with career growth opportunities afterwards.)
This exciting opportunity is a chance to work on adversarial robustness, safety and explainability in machine learning, applied to modern LLMs. This position will involve close collaboration with the Lamarr Institute for Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence (https://lamarr-institute.org/), the Fraunhofer Institute for Intelligent Analysis and Information Systems (IAIS) and the OpenGPT-X initiative (https://opengpt-x.de/). The candidate will have a central role in a project aiming to advance the state-of-the-art in the robustness and generalization capabilities of LLMs.
