The posting

Overview

The Department of Computer Science and Software Engineering (CSSE) invites applications for multiple tenure-track faculty positions. We seek candidates at the Assistant Professor level, although outstanding candidates at a senior level will also be considered. Applicants must have the potential to develop a vigorous externally funded research program, excellent communication skills, and a commitment to teaching as well as research. Auburn University offers competitive salaries and start-up packages.

Area of emphasis in this search is Artificial Intelligence. We particularly seek applications from candidates with expertise in natural language processing, reinforcement learning, foundational models, XAI, secure AI, or computer vision, from candidates with dual expertise in AI+X where X is cybersecurity or any core area of computer science (e.g. systems), and candidates whose expertise is in AI applied to X where X is another domain such as agriculture, engineering, or healthcare.

Selected candidates will be expected to develop research collaborations with faculty in other disciplines who are part of the AI@AU Initiative (https://eng.auburn.edu/ai-au/), leading to extramurally funded projects.

Selected candidates will be expected to teach core courses in the MS in Artificial Intelligence Engineering program (https://eng.auburn.edu/program/master-of-science-in-artificial-intelligence-engineering), and develop new undergraduate and graduate courses in AI.

AI and Cybersecurity are the two strategic areas of research focus in the department. CSSE is home to the Auburn University Center for AI and Cybersecurity Engineering (https://eng.auburn.edu/au-caice/), and is affiliated with the McCrary Institute for Cyber and Critical Infrastructure Security (https://mccraryinstitute.com/). The department currently has a faculty of 35 who support a dynamic research enterprise and strong undergraduate and graduate programs (MS in CSSE, MS in Artificial Intelligence Engineering, MS in Cybersecurity Engineering, MS in Data Science & Engineering, and PhD in CSSE).The department currently has 80 PhD and 150 MS students. Further information may be found on the department's home page http://www.eng.auburn.edu/csse.

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
