PhD position Trustworthiness of Auto-Generated Systems-
Job description

We are seeking a motivated PhD student to work on the challenge of ensuring trustworthiness for auto-generated software.

The increasing reliance on third-party software, including the use of AI agents for code, significantly enhances the efficiency of software development. However, this also introduces substantial trust issues concerning the safety, security, and correctness of the final product.

The goal of this PhD project is to design language-agnostic abstractions and technologies that enable the safe and secure integration of third-party code into existing projects.

This project bridges the software engineering requirements with the formal methods guarantees. The prospective PhD student will be using their deep understanding of programming languages, formal specifications, and program analysis to, first, formalize the challenges arising from integrating code into evolving software, and, second, to design and implement solutions to address these challenges.

**Requirements**:

- A Master’s degree in computer science.
- Knowledge and interest in programming languages and formal methods.
- Strong software engineering skills.
- Curiosity and agility to understand and navigate new technologies when applicable.
- Has an inclusive mindset and values good communication.

Conditions of employment

The TU Delft offers a customisable compensation package, discounts on health insurance, and a monthly work costs contribution. Flexible work schedules can be arranged.

For international applicants, TU Delft has the Coming to Delft Service. This service provides information for new international employees to help you prepare the relocation and to settle in the Netherlands. The Coming to Delft Service offers a Dual Career Programme for partners and they organise events to expand your (social) network.

TU Delft (Delft University of Technology)

Delft University of Technology is built on strong foundations. As creators of the world-famous Dutch waterworks and pioneers in biotech, TU Delft is a top international university combining science, engineering and design. It delivers world class results in education, research and innovation to address challenges in the areas of energy, climate, mobility, health and digital society. For generations, our engineers have proven to be entrepreneurial problem-solvers, both in business and in a social context.

Challenge. Change. Impact

Faculty Electrical Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Science

The Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Science (EEMCS) brings together three scientific disciplines. Combined, they reinforce each other and are the driving force behind the technology we all use in our daily lives. Technology such as the electricity grid, which our faculty is helping to make completely sustainable and future-proof. At the same time, we are developing the chips and sensors of the future, whilst also setting the foundations for the software technologies to run on this new generation of equipment - which of course includes AI. Meanwhile we are pushing the limits of applied mathematics, for example mapping out disease processes using single cell data, and using mathematics to simulate gigantic ash plumes after a volcanic eruption. In other words: there is plenty of room at the faculty for ground-breaking research. We educate innovative engineers and have excellent labs and facilities that underline our strong international position. In total, more than 1000 employees and 4,000 students work and study in this innovative environment.
