The Lab for Creative Robotics at the University for Arts and Design Linz (http://ufg.at/) (Austria) is looking for a new researcher (50%) to join the team. The lab is a collaborative project of the University, with partners Ars Electronica (https://www.aec.at/news/en/), KUKA Robotics (https://www.kuka.com/), the Association for Robots in Architecture (http://www.robotsinarchitecture.org/), Johannes Kepler University (http://www.jku.at/robin/content) and Bernstein Innovation (http://www.bernstein-innovation.com/). It is headed by Prof. Johannes Braumann, the main developer of KUKA|prc.
We're looking for people that bring additional, specialized knowledge (such as handcraft, material knowledge, physical computing, geometry, software development, media art, HCI...) to the lab. Robot knowledge is a plus, but not a requirement. You will be part of a small team that is expected to grow over time and will work on a variety of creative and industrial projects. Working hours are flexible.
Linz has got a vibrant international digital media/arts scene alongside its "historic" industrial background, that draws in both high-tech companies as well as heavy industry.
German knowledge is not a prerequisite, however the official job posting is only available in German at https://ufgonline.ufg.ac.at/ufg_online/wbMitteilungsblaetter.display?pNr=195260 (https://ufgonline.ufg.ac.at/ufg_online/wbMitteilungsblaetter.display?pNr=195260) – scroll down to "870".
