The Alan Turing Institute
Named in honour of Alan Turing, the Institute is a place for inspiring, exciting work and we need passionate, sharp, and innovative people who want to use their skills to contribute to our mission to make great leaps in data science and AI research to change the world for the better.
Please find more information about us here.
BACKGROUND
The Defence & Security (D&S) programme at the Turing is looking to expand its Applied Research Group (ARG), working on real-world cyber security and machine learning problems for defence and national security stakeholders.
As a team, ARG aims to apply innovative research to real-world problems. We use research papers and code repositories to implement the latest developments in machine learning to pressing real-world problem sets, outputting feasibility studies, code repositories and supporting documentation. Projects vary in scale, from literature reviews to early-stage research engineering and longer-term proofs-of-concepts.
CANDIDATE PROFILE
We are looking to hire a Research Associate to develop a unique applied research portfolio and manage partner engagement alongside ARG’s Theme Lead. ARG is a cross-disciplinary team – therefore able to respond to a wide variety of problem sets – and encourage applications from both generalists and specialists including those who self-identify as statisticians, software engineers, machine learning practitioners, data scientists or data engineers.
