Postdoc transportation OR positions in Melbourne, Australia

Constraint Technologies (CTI), based in Melbourne Australia, is currently
looking for postdoctorate or experienced researchers to work in our
Research group. We have a number of projects operating in association
with the CTI-Monash Centre for Optimisation in Travel, Transport and
Logistics, and we would expect that the successful applicant(s) would
also be collaborating with researchers at Monash University. Publication
and presentation at conferences are encouraged subject to protection of
trade secrets.

The ideal applicant would have:
   * A PhD or industry experience in an area related to Operations Research.
   * Good knowledge of Mathematical Programming optimization techniques.
   * Broad knowledge of other optimization techniques and heuristics.
   * Experience, aptitude or interest in solving transport related
     problems in the rail and airline sectors such as online schedule
     recovery optimization, training resource planning and schedule
     optimization.
   * Excellent computer programming skills.
   * Good written and oral English communication skills.

CTI offers the attractive opportunity of a permanent job working in the field
of Operations Research while collaborating with a University. In a similar
concept to Google’s “20-percent time”, we encourage researchers to spend a
portion of their time working on a project that they are passionate about.

CTI welcomes applications from within and outside Australia.
