Tenure-track Openings at Max Planck Institutes in Computer Science
The Max Planck Institute for Informatics (MPI-INF), the Max Planck Institute for Software Systems (MPI-SWS), and the Max Planck Institute for Security and Privacy (MPI-SP), invite applications for tenure-track faculty (W2 level) in all areas of computer science. We expect to fill several positions.
Successful candidates are expected to build a team and pursue a highly visible research agenda, both independently and in collaboration with other groups.
The institutes are part of a network of over 80 Max Planck Institutes, Germany’s premier basic-research organisations. MPIs have an established record of world-class, foundational research in the sciences, technology, and the humanities. The institutes offer a unique environment that combines the best aspects of a university department and a research laboratory: Faculty enjoy full academic freedom, lead a team of doctoral students and post-docs, and have the opportunity to teach university courses; at the same time, they enjoy ongoing institutional funding in addition to third-party funds, a technical infrastructure unrivaled for an academic institution, as well as internationally competitive compensation.
We maintain an international and diverse work environment and seek applications from outstanding researchers worldwide. The working language is English; knowledge of the German language is not required for a successful career at the institutes.
