Description
As part of a young and dynamic high-level R&D IT team, your mission will be to:
Design and develop various decision support functions and optimization models For a given problem, study the state of the art and enumerate, prototype and compare various resolution methods (exact or approximate, relaxations, branch-and-bound, branch-and-cut, mixed integer variables, complementarities, constraint programming, etc.) Design and implement the chosen solutions, with a strong requirement for reliability and numerical efficiency Integrate and test these features on real test cases.
The candidate will also integrate the POEMA network and have the opportunity to participate in the network activities.
Requirements
The candidate must have a master’s degree in computer science and/or applied mathematics. You should have a solid background in Operations Research. You are curious and enthusiast to exploit your computer development skills and your knowledge of optimization research.
Operational on various contexts and real issues. Rigorous and passionate, you show initiative and imagination and already have an ease in programming in programming and scientific languages (C/C++, Python, R, Julia).
The candidate should be fluent in English. Knowledge of French is an asset.
Conditions
Have — at the date of recruitment — a Master’s degree in Computer Science, Mathematics or Engineering (or any equivalent diploma). Should have — at the date of recruitment — less than 4 years of a research career, and not have a doctoral degree. The 4 years are measured from the date when they obtained the degree which would formally entitle them to embark on a PhD. Trans-national mobility: The applicant — at the date of recruitment — should not have resided in France for more than 12 months in the 3 years immediately prior to recruitment, and not have carried out their main activity (work, studies, etc.) in that country.
