Applicants must have demonstrable expertise in running large human-subject experiments using crowd-based platforms (e.g., Amazon's Mechanical Turk) as well as a strong background in quantitative analytical methods and computational modeling.  Candidates with an interest in complex systems theories and methods are especially welcome. Experience with probabilistic modeling (e.g., MCMC inference methods & probabilistic graphical models) is also desirable.
The position is anticipated to be funded for two years, with a preferred start date in January of 2022. The starting salary is $60k per annum plus a comprehensive benefits package. Appointments will be made for one year, and reappointment for the second year is expected subject to good performance.
