candidates at the associate professor level will also be considered. The
successful candidates will be expected to teach and conduct research in
core ISE methodological areas including mathematical and data-driven
optimization, robotics and automation, AI and machine learning, and
simulation. The successful candidate will be expected to address
significant societal problems (e.g., smart cities and infrastructure
systems, energy systems, supply chain and logistics, health systems,
cybersecurity, and advanced manufacturing), lead multi-PI or
multi-disciplinary teams, and take their leadership to the next level. This
position is on a 9-month service period with an anticipated start date of
September 16, 2023.

The ISE Department of UW is on a multi-year trajectory for growth. The
department has a tradition of interdisciplinary collaborations and strong
partnerships within UW and with other academic institutions and industries.
Recent examples include Amazon + UW Science Hub, the NSF-funded AI
Institute in Dynamical Systems and the Institute of Medical Data Science. The
primary appointment and teaching responsibilities for this hire will be in
ISE, with the option of a joint hire with another department if desired. The
department currently consists of 13 active core research and teaching
faculty, over 140 undergraduates and 75 graduate students. More information

collaborative environment. The Seattle area is particularly attractive
given the presence of significant industrial research laboratories, top
technology companies, as well as a vibrant technology-driven
entrepreneurial community that further enhances the intellectual
atmosphere. UW has a culture of inter-departmental and cross-college
collaborations, as well as close relationships with regional institutes and
industry partners.  UW is a leader in transportation systems (
