Responsibilities:
Up to two posts as either a Research & Innovation Associate or Research & Innovation Fellow working on assurance of AI-based autonomous systems, as part of the Centre for Assuring Autonomy (CfAA) at the University of York. The roles will enable you to shape the safe introduction of AI-based autonomous systems, across application domains and would be particularly interesting for those who wish to explore assurance of continuous integration and continuous deployment of ML models. The posts will offer the scope to do independent research but a major component will be working with industry and regulators in the UK and internationally. Further, the CfAA is a multi-disciplinary centre, offering you the opportunity to learn from others working in different disciplines.
