The Ira A. Fulton Schools of Engineering at Arizona State University (ASU) and the School of Computing and Augmented Intelligence (SCAI) seek applicants for a tenure-track or tenured faculty position in the area of Data Systems. SCAI (https://scai.engineering.asu.edu/), one of the eight Fulton Schools, houses a vibrant Industrial Engineering and Computer Science Engineering research community (learn more at https://research.engineering.asu.edu/). We seek applicants who can enhance our abilities in data systems. Areas of interest include reliable and high-performance data systems for acquiring, storing, processing, and analyzing complex (such as real-time, large-scale, and multi-modal) data, and data systems research (including applied and theoretical innovations in heterogeneous, imprecise, and distributed data management and analysis, possibly leveraging deployments on the cloud, modern hardware, or disaggregated infrastructures) that aims to support machine learning, AI, and big data analytics for converting data into actionable information and knowledge. Candidates with big data application interest in one or more of our key research thrust areas of Health, IoT, Space, Cybersecurity, Scientific Discovery, and Sustainability are particularly encouraged to apply.

SCAI currently houses multiple ASU Centers - including the Center for Assured and Scalable Engineering (CASCADE, https://cascade.asu.edu/), the Center for Accelerating Operational Efficiency (CAOE, https://caoe.asu.edu/), the Center for Biocomputing, Security and Society (CBSS, https://biodesign.asu.edu/biocomputing-security-and-society), the Center for Intelligent, Distributed, Embedded Applications and Systems (IDEAS https://ideasresearchcenter.org/), the Center for Secure, Trusted, and Assured Microelectronics (STAM, https://stamcenter.asu.edu), the Center for Cybersecurity and Trusted Foundations (CTF, https://globalsecurity.asu.edu/cybersecurity-and-trusted-foundations), and the ASU-Mayo Center for Innovative Imaging (AMCII, https://amcii.asu.edu) - and have a large number of faculty working on a variety of relevant topics.

We search for applicants who will contribute to our academic programs, promote transdisciplinary teaching and research, and help the university to achieve its aspirations, including enabling student success, transforming society, valuing entrepreneurship, and conducting use-inspired research. Faculty members in the Fulton Schools are expected to develop an internationally recognized and externally funded research program, adopt effective pedagogical practices in the development and delivery of graduate and undergraduate courses, advise both undergraduate and graduate student research and projects, and undertake service activities.

Appointment will be at the Assistant, Associate, or Full Professor rank commensurate with the candidate’s experience and accomplishments, beginning August 2025.

Required qualifications:

• Earned doctorate in computer science, computer engineering or related discipline by the time of appointment
• Evidence of excellence in research, as appropriate to the candidate’s rank
• Evidence of excellence in teaching, as appropriate to the candidate’s rank

Desired qualifications:

• Demonstrated commitment to a collaborative, transdisciplinary approach to research and teaching
• Commitment to inclusive research and teaching practices
• Potential (for junior applicants) or evidence (for senior applicants) for establishing an externally funded research program
• Record of publications in top-tier journals/conferences as appropriate to the candidate’s rank
• Commitment to teaching at both the graduate and the undergraduate levels, including online courses

Application deadline is December 9, 2024. Applications will continue to be accepted on a rolling basis for a reserve pool. Applications in the reserve pool may then be reviewed in the order in which they were received until the position is filled.
