Postdoctoral fellow in optical transport network security

Found in: Talent SE C2 - 3 weeks ago


Gothenburg, Sweden Chalmers tekniska högskola Full time

This position at is an opportunity to be a part of creative and globally relevant research network addressing communication network security. By combining AI/ML and networking knowledge, you will be able to take initiative, design, and implement functionalities for enhancing the achievable levels of 5G network security. The developed techniques may be validated on cutting-edge network management frameworks in collaboration with our international research partners. Ultimately, the research carried out in this project has the potential to improve sustainability of the global communication network infrastructure.

Information about the research
Optical communication network infrastructure forms the backbone of today's information society, but is vulnerable to various attacks that jeopardize secure operation of upper layer network services. This research project, funded by the European Commission, aims at developing an encompassing 5G cybersecurity toolbox. The role of the Chalmers team in the project is to address the transport optical network segment security challenges. Specifically, we will develop processes for security assurance of transport network control and management, and investigate the concrete vulnerabilities of SDN controlled network components in virtualized scenarios. We will then focus on developing tools for risk mitigation in 5G networks associated with the control and management of the network and compute infrastructure. For the control of the network infrastructure using SDN, emphasis will be given on identifying optimal solutions that prevent malicious attacks or unauthorized access to the network. Attention will be put on development of intelligent solutions based on AI/ML to continuously monitor the status of the SDN components, and intelligent policy control mechanisms preventing the installation of rules that may cause instabilities. Finally, we will develop mitigating measures supporting 5G Lifecycle Management through network slicing and virtual network function placement.

Major responsibilities
Your main responsibilities as postdoctoral researcher are related to conducting cutting-edge research and disseminating scientific outcomes in top-tier journals and conferences. You will have the freedom to independently formulate and solve research problems in line with the work envisioned by the international research project you will be a part of. You will have an opportunity to take initiative on suitable project tasks and tightly collaborate with project partners from leading European universities and companies. Depending on your preferences, you may also be involved in supervision of Ph.D. and M.Sc. students. The position is meritorious for future roles within academia and industry.

Qualifications
Mandatory
-) Ph.D. degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Telecommunications, or similar.
-) Knowledge of SDN-based communication networks, network virtualization and/or network security (not necessarily all of them)
-) Experience in communication network design and optimization techniques
-) Experience in applying AI/ML methods to management and operation of communication infrastructures, including monitoring, security, and service provisioning
-) Ability and motivation to carry-on high-quality research
-) Strong track record demonstrated by publications in Q1 journals and top-tier international conferences
-) Programming skills
