It specifically oversees three of the eight specialty tracks: RAISE (Data-oriented track), SISC (Telecom and Software Engineering track), and ID (Future and Sustainable Industry) in FISE, as well as an apprenticeship program (FISA) in Telecom and Computer Science. CERI SN also offers a specialized Master’s in Cybersecurity, labeled ANSSI-SecNumEDU. Additionally, CERI SN is involved in continuing education, particularly in AI through the AI Project Manager program.Teaching Activities:· Provide teaching (lectures, tutorials, practical work) within the School’s various programs in your areas of expertise. The candidate will participate in the core curriculum of the engineering program as well as in the integrated preparatory cycle (e.g., basics of computer science and programming in the integrated preparatory cycle or basics of object-oriented programming in the core engineering curriculum, introduction to data science in the core engineering curriculum or in FISA). They will also contribute to specialized courses (master’s level) in their preferred areas (e.g., ML/AI and AI in healthcare in the RAISE track). Some courses may be taught in English.· Contribute to the implementation of pedagogical innovations integrating digital tools (MOOCs, flipped classrooms, etc.).· Engage in pedagogical supervision activities (projects, internships, competitions).· Invest in and participate in collective responsibilities related to education.· Collaborate with industry professionals to strengthen the connection between teaching and current industrial and technological realities.Research and Technology Transfer Activities:CERI Digital Systems is structured into three research axes.· ARTS (Autonomous, Resilient Systems) aims to make distributed and constrained systems resilient and autonomous. A global vision is adopted, integrating data collection (and its communication issues), software development (and its adaptation to systems), prediction, control, and security.· HIDE (Human, Interaction, Data Ecosystem) studies human-centered learning models and the interaction between humans and their environment. It focuses on augmented environments (Factory of the Future, intelligent transport, etc.), assistance, and management of human autonomy (connected health, anomalies in human behavior), as well as the security of human-related data. The axis is organized around three themes: Research in Human-Centered Computing, Multimodal Perception, and Data Security, Quality, and Reliability.· MCLEOD (Modeling and Control of Complex Systems in Large Environments Requiring Optimized Decisions) aims to understand and better control complex systems through modeling, decision-making, and control approaches from Automation and Artificial Intelligence.For this recruitment, the candidate will strengthen the research activities of the HIDE axis of CERI SN on the theme of Research in Human-Centered Computing. This may involve, but is not limited to, techniques related to machine learning (particularly deep learning), information fusion, and signal processing methods (e.g., for weak signal detection). The main application would be healthcare.The recruited person will have to:· Develop high-level research activities on data for human-centered applications, particularly in relation to healthcare.· Initiate and coordinate research projects, supervise PhD students and master’s students, with a view to preparing a Habilitation to Supervise Research (HDR).· Actively contribute to regional, national, European, or partnership projects (particularly in collaboration with the industrial world and/or other IMT schools).· Publish in leading conferences and journals in the field and participate in the organization of scientific events.· Be an active participant in the French and international scientific community in the relevant fields.· Participate in research projects and actions, ensuring the creation of thematic bridges within CERI SN and with other CERIs in line with the School’s and Institut Mines Télécom’s areas of excellence.· Promote and develop the thematic focus of the Center for Education, Research, and Innovation (CERI).· Develop contractual research and technology transfer actions in partnership with economic stakeholders.· Prepare a Habilitation to Supervise Research (HDR).· Contribute to scientific monitoring efforts.· Promote and develop the thematic focus of CERI, particularly the integration of digital sciences in this approach.· Participate in the activities of regional and/or international groups in their discipline.· Participate in the organization of scientific events and in the promotion (publications, communications) of the results obtained.Where to apply WebsiteRequirementsSpecific RequirementsProfile: (Prerequisites/Qualifications)The candidate must:· Have recognized scientific and technical skills to carry out the aforementioned missions.
