[CPM-SPIRE-L] Postdoctoral Position in Algorithms (Marburg, Germany)

[Sebastian Wild]

Dear all,

The Algorithms Group at the University of Marburg is seeking a 
postdoctoral researcher in algorithms and data structures, analysis of 
algorithms, or algorithm engineering.
The position is funded by the EPSRC Project /Computing over Compressed 
Graph-Structured Data/ [1].

This position is initially until December 2027 with the likely 
possibility of an extension for 6 months.  Responsibilities include work 
on the project, revolving around space-efficient data structures for graphs.
The application deadline is *16 August 2026*, via [2].

We offer an annual gross salary of at least €61,000 (TV-H E13 100%, 
rises commensurate with experience [3]) and a generous travel budget.
German language are *not* required.  The official job advertisement is 
in German, but English application materials are very welcome.

Documented expertise in one of the following topics is desirable for 
this post:  succinct data structures, data compression, information 
theory, analysis of algorithms, graph theory, discrete optimization, 
data structure lower bounds, approximation algorithms, beyond-worst-case 
analysis, algorithm engineering.
Strong candidates with the willingness to pivot into these areas are 
encouraged to apply.

For informal inquiries, please feel free to contact me at Sebastian Wild 
<wild at informatik.uni-marburg.de> <mailto:wild at informatik.uni-marburg.de>.

Marburg is a charming town with a vibrant medieval center and a young, 
liberal population.  Located just one hour north of Frankfurt, it offers 
convenient connections for international travel (which you can reach at 
no extra cost using the state-wide free public transit pass included 
with the post).
