Contexte :
We are recruiting a post-doctoral researcher in computer science that will contribute to European university EULiST. This is fixed-term contract of 24 months allocated to department Informatique et systèmes intelligents (Intelligent systems and informatics or ISI) at Institut Henri Fayol, one of the 5 research and training centres of Mines Saint-Étienne. Moreover, the research of the employee will be conducted in the Laboratoire d’informatique, de modélisation et d’optimisation des systèmes (Laboratory of Informatics, Modelling and Optimisation of Systems or LIMOS).

Sujet :
The researcher would contribute to EULiST, an alliance of 10 universities in Europe, on tasks related to the digital campus that aims at collecting data and knowledge about courses, teaching material, library resources, and generally, university knowledge across the alliance.

The post-doctoral researcher will have to get involved in Tasks 2.2 and 2.3 of EULiST that focus around EULiST knowledge hub hosted by Leibniz University Hannover. In addition, we expect the researcher to:
– In collaboration with other partners, contribute to a knowledge model or knowledge models to describe common university resources (such as courses, study programmes, publications, and so on);
– Instantiate the model by collecting, extracting and transforming available data into a knowledge graph, compatible with Leibniz University’s knowledge hub;
– Work on interoperable platform architectures for data/knowledge access and interchange;
– Contribute to existing platform prototypes at Institut Mines-Télécom, such as Data-AI Competences Platform and Teralab’s software resource catalogue.

Profil du candidat :
To do this, we are looking for talented researchers who own a PhD degree on topics that relate to the Semantic Web, the Web of Data, and knowledge graphs. Particularly, we seek a person with:
– Very good knowledge of at least several of these standards: RDF, SPARQL, OWL, SHACL, LDP;
– Experience in developing software with these technologies;
– A capacity to abstract problems and generalise solutions to cover a broad spectrum of applications or fields;
– Good autonomy and some level of leadership towards managing students’ projects;
– Good communication skills in English and ease to evolve in an international and multicultural context.

To prove their value, candidates must provide a CV that mentions their publication record and research project experience. Candidates must also write a convincing motivation letter. Letters mostly written by generative AI are usually generic and dull, therefore they are likely to reduce the chance to obtain an interview.

Formation et compétences requises :
PhD in computer science, with an academic record showing skills in Semantic Web, Linked Data, knowledge engineering.
