An exciting opportunity for a Postdoc Graduate to work at the University of Surrey in the area of complex networks, and threat intelligence, focusing on advanced persistent threats (APTs) on 5G networks (O-RAN).
The post holder will join the team of researchers working on network security, prediction and learning on O-RAN (5G/6G) networks, and research sub-projects. The primary responsibility for this post is to develop Reinforcement Learning models, off the back of observations of data traffic on the O-RAN of the core network, and produce optimal response strategies. The project work entails building a Digital Twin for extensive simulations of realistic APT attacks on the O-RAN (of the 5G/6G ICS at Surrey).
We are looking for applicants that demonstrate strong research and analytical skills, have strong communication skills and enthusiasm for developing their own research ideas. Applicants should also have a good understanding of the 5G core network, threat intelligence as well as software engineering good practice. Familiarity with python (pytorch, tensorflow) and open source 5G testbeds would be an advantage.
The University of Surrey is a global community of ideas and people, dedicated to life-changing education and research.
We are ambitious and have a bold vision of what we want to achieve - shaping ourselves into one of the best universities in the world, which we are achieving through the talents and endeavour of every employee.
Our culture empowers people to achieve this aim and to collectively, and individually, make a real difference., In return we offer a generous pension, relocation assistance where appropriate, flexible working options including job share and blended home/campus working locations (dependent on work duties), access to world-class leisure facilities on campus, a range of travel schemes and supportive family friendly benefits including an excellent on-site nursery.
