Research Scientist Position at Qatar Computing Research Institute
\nworking with a dynamic research team
\nhttps:\/\/quecst.qcri.org\/team<\/a><\/p>\n

The Qatar Computing Research Center (QCRI) invites applicants for the position of Research Scientist with expertise in data science. We especially welcome applications in machine
\nlearning, data mining, data management, human-computer interaction, and information systems. However, a strong work ethic and passion for making an impact are more important than the academic discipline.<\/p>\n

The responsibilities of a Scientist include researching the frontier of their discipline, fostering research collaboration and technology transfer with end-users of data systems, community outreach, and service to the discipline. Additional responsibilities may include interacting with industry partners and applying for research grants. There are no teaching responsibilities.<\/p>\n

Candidates must have a Ph.D. in computer science, information science, online marketing, or a related discipline and have work experience beyond their Ph.D. Fresh Ph.D. graduates with an exceptional publication record may also be considered. All candidates must have a track record of publishing in top-tier conferences and journals. For a sense of the level of outlets and productivity, candidates can view: Google Scholar page of Dr. Jim Jansen.
\nhttps:\/\/scholar.google.com\/citations?hl=en&user=gyhAqMQAAAAJ&view_op=list_works&sortby=pubdate<\/a><\/p>\n

A Scientist position in QCRI is a permanent contract and is equivalent to a tenure-track Assistant Professor role in a top US institution. Salaries and benefits are internationally
\ncompetitive. Research facilities are top-notch. The work environment is exceptional. Qatar is a great place to live!<\/p>\n

QCRI is an independent research institute within Hamad Bin Khalifa University, part of the Qatar Foundation, a non-profit organization. QCRI was founded in 2009 and has established itself as a world-class computer science research entity.<\/p>\n

For questions, please reach out to Dr. Jim Jansen at jjansen@acm.org<\/strong><\/p>\n

To apply, please submit a CV and expression of interest to jjansen@acm.org with the subject header: QCRI Scientist Application. Priority will be given to those who apply before October 28th, 2021.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
