We invite applications from all areas of AI. Areas of current interest include the following: * Foundations of machine learning * Multimodal models * Alignment and AI safety * Physical and embodied AI * Reasoning * Systems that make large models trainable and deployable This list is illustrative rather than exhaustive. Applicants whose work falls outside these areas are encouraged to apply, including applicants whose work spans artificial intelligence and another discipline. Artificial intelligence is a growth area for the campus and for the department. The Department of Computer Science offers a Bachelor of Science in Artificial Intelligence, and these two positions are part of a broader cluster of AI hiring. The department has recently made strategic investments in two AI Centers. Computing has been expanded alongside that: a Research Computing reinvestment has added NVIDIA H200 capacity, supported in part by the college and the department, with a share of it dedicated to teaching. AI research at CU Boulder extends beyond computer science into partners across the College of Engineering and Applied Science, cognitive science, information science, and collaborations with the federal laboratories along the Colorado Front Range. The Boulder area also supports a growing concentration of companies working in artificial intelligence and robotics., * The anticipated start date for these positions is Fall 2027; however, a later start date may be negotiated. * Only one application is necessary to be considered for both positions. * The University of Colorado Boulder has implemented a reference check program with respect to final candidates for tenured faculty appointments. The reference check program is intended to allow CU Boulder to collect and review information about a candidate's conduct at their current and previous institutions, specifically conduct related to sexual misconduct, harassment, and/or discrimination, before making hiring decisions. All final candidates for tenured faculty appointments are required to complete an Authorization to Release Information., * A Statement of Research Philosophy: A statement of your experience and plans for research and/or creative work that contributes to the body of knowledge in your field and provides broader benefits to education and society (3-4 pages). * A Statement of Teaching Philosophy: A statement of your experience and plans for teaching and mentoring a diverse student body (2-3 pages). * Leadership, Service and Community Contributions Statement: In this statement, describe your leadership and service experience, and demonstrated ability to contribute to a supportive campus community. Please provide details on your track record, calibrated to your career stage, that describe the specific role you played in these efforts. These could include, but are not limited to service on committees, outreach activities to broaden engagement in or with engineering, or serving on advisory boards or task forces contributing to policies or regulations. In addition, describe your plans to contribute to our campus plan to Create Supportive Environments, and the College of Engineering and Applied Science Strategic Vision (1-2 pages). * Names and contact information for three or more references: Contact information for at least three references who may be contacted as the search progresses. Please include names, job titles, phone numbers, and email addresses. Separately during the application process, you will be asked to provide the name and contact information for at least three references to submit a letter of recommendation to be considered along with your application materials.
