Job Description

As part of its strategic plan, The University of Oklahoma (OU) continues to grow its Gallogly College of Engineering (GCoE). As such, one tenure-track faculty position at the rank of assistant professor is currently available within the University of Oklahoma’s (OU) School of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE). ECE welcomes applicants who have demonstrated experience and expertise in high-performance computing, with specific areas described below, and who are committed to being an integral part of the research and educational mission at OU.

OU is continuing to expand its internationally known radar program in collaboration with its School of ECE. The Advanced Radar Research Center (ARRC, http://arrc.ou.edu), which serves as the cornerstone of the radar program, is a 125+ person research center on campus that has developed advanced radar capabilities and all-digital phased arrays. Modern all-digital communication systems, multi-function radar, AI/ML algorithms rely on high performance digital signal processing and real-time computing to provide high-fidelity results in an actionable timeframe. The ARRC intends to grow these capabilities in high-performance computing.

Position: High-Performance Computing

A High-Performance Computing (HPC) expert for developing solutions for digital signal processing applications is encouraged to apply. A successful candidate would develop a research and teaching agenda around:

  • Co-Designing algorithms and hardware for processing massive amounts of high-dimensional streaming tensor data for latency sensitive and real-time applications.
  • Low-SWaP, high-performance embedded computing (HPEC)
  • High-speed, low-latency data interfaces and networking
  • Real-time computing on heterogeneous processor types
  • Optimized GPU computing and exploitation of GPU architectures for HPEC (tensors, multi-GPU instantiations, advances in GPU for AI/ML)
  • Compute-focused optimization of System-on-Chip (SoC) technologies.

The University of Oklahoma OU is a Carnegie-R1 comprehensive public research university known for excellence in teaching, research, and community engagement, serving the educational, cultural, economic, and healthcare needs of the state, region, and nation from three campuses: Norman, Health Sciences Center in Oklahoma City, and the Schusterman Center in Tulsa.
