Job description

Several challenges remain before larger scale deployment of Autonomous vehicles (AVs). This postdoc project, part of a Swedish national research project, is investigating how DevOps practices can be adapted to support safety critical systems and specifically automated vehicles (AVs) (). The position is within the Trustworthy Cyber-Physical Systems research group under the lead of Prof. Martin Törngren. The need for continuous assurance of automotive systems is driven commercially and by evolving security threats but becomes especially important due to the open environments in which AVs operate. This requires field data to accompany classic verification methods, while ensuring that system updates and new behaviors do not jeopardize safety. The project addresses the gap between the tradition of DevOps, which is not addressing safety-critical systems, and the tradition of safety-critical systems, which does not address DevOps.
