Blekinge Institute of Technology, BTH, is one of the most distinctly profiled universities in Sweden, where applied IT and innovation for sustainable growth are in focus. In our education and research, engineering and IT are integrated with other disciplines such as urban planning, industrial economics, design and health sciences to contribute to solving the challenges facing society. Everything we do at BTH has three distinct perspectives: innovation, sustainability and in real life, which means cooperation and exchange with both business and industry as well as society. A characteristic of BTH is the close cooperation with industry and society, which permeates both education and research at the regional, national and international level. We conduct education and research at a high international level. BTH has two faculties – the Faculty of Computing and the Faculty of Engineering.

The department of Software Engineering consists of about 50 researchers and teachers from 20 countries. Our tradition in software engineering traces back to 1990 when we pioneered Sweden's first academic education in the area in cooperation with Ericsson. Our strength is the focus on empirical research to strengthen the industry's competitiveness in the development of software-intensive systems, services and products. BTH's research in software engineering is internationally top-ranked, and many of the department's researchers are top-ranked internationally.

Work description

The position comprises empirical research in the area of software engineering, i.e. the inception, planning, development, verification and validation, release, and evolution of software-intensive products and services (SIPS). The scope is delimited to security-related aspects of SIPS and how security can be built in. Special focus will be on how this impacts ways-of-working, methods, principles and practices of organizations developing SIPS. Experience in quantitative approaches (data science, machine learning, natural language processing) is of special merit.

Our tradition of close cooperation with industry means that we particularly value an interest in and experience from empirical research in collaboration with industry. For this position, we are looking for a candidate with a background in empirical software engineering and/or professional software development complemented with experience from one or more of the following areas:

  • Evidence-based and data-driven approaches.
  • Agile/Lean practices such as DevOps and Value Based Software Engineering.
  • Devising and utilising data-driven approaches in evaluating engineering processes/ways-of-working and artifacts.

Rules and benefits for doctoral students in Sweden apply to this position. The doctoral student will have an individual study plan in software engineering. The position may include up to 20% of other services, e.g., teaching at the undergraduate and graduate level.

Eligibility requirements
