Job Description:
Join the Bristol Cyber Security Group, led by Professor Awais Rashid at the University of Bristol. Recognised as an Academic Centre of Excellence in Cyber Security Research by the NCSC and EPSRC, we are looking for candidates to become integral members of our SCULI research programme, focused on securing ultra-large scale infrastructures.
The infrastructures in focus include current critical national infrastructures and emerging future systems, such as smart cities, intelligent transportation, high-value manufacturing, and Industry 4.0. Cyber security of such ultra-large scale infrastructures faces unprecedented complexity.

What will you be doing?
We are seeking candidates with a strong background in software security, especially those with a solid understanding of API (application programming interface) design and vulnerabilities. Candidates should also have experience in experimental work on software security, including the ability to instrument systems, develop proof-of-concept prototypes, and test them in large-scale experimental settings such as our testbed infrastructures.
You should apply if:
* Have knowledge and experience of software security.
* Possess a strong understanding of API design and vulnerabilities.
* Have demonstrated experience with experimental work on software security, such as system instrumentation, prototype development, and large-scale testing.
