The School of Informatics at the University of Edinburgh is recuiting for a permanent academic post in Speech Technology.  The appointment will be at Lecturer or Reader grade (equivalent to US Assistant Professor/Associate Professor).  You will contribute to research and teaching in the Centre for Speech Technology Research (CSTR) and the Institute for Language, Cognition, and Computation (ILCC).  There is extensive scope to collaborate with other Institutes and Schools within the University.

The successful candidate will have (or be near to completing) a PhD, an established research agenda and the enthusiasm and ability to undertake original research, to lead a research group, and to engage with teaching and academic supervision. We are seeking current and future leaders in the field who are able to forge new collaborations both within the field and across disciplines.  We are particularly looking for a candidate with potential to extend the breadth of our research beyond our traditional core strengths in speech recognition and synthesis towards emerging applications, for example in spoken dialogue systems; spoken language understanding; healthcare and assistive technology applications; explainable speech processing; human computer interaction; or autonomous systems.
