TELEFONICA RESEARCH Telefonica Research is a leading industrial research lab based in Barcelona (Spain).
The aim of the lab is to carry research studies on mid to long-term related to several technological areas of interest to the Telefónica Group.
The Research group follows an open research model in collaboration with universities and other research institutions, promoting the dissemination of their work both through publications and technology transfer.
The board is constituted of a multi-disciplinary team with a variety of skills that includes systems, networks, HCI, Machine Learning and Privacy/Security.
We are seeking candidates for staff researcher positions to strengthen and complement our efforts in the areas we currently work on, particularly in the privacy and security of machine learning techniques.
MISSIONThe researcher will have the opportunity to propose and develop research ideas individually and jointly with the rest of the Telefonica research team, as well as with other Telefonica units.
The researcher will also strengthen the research work via the creation and leading of strong collaborative associations with academic institutions, industrial partners, customers, and government agencies.
Furthermore, the researcher will work on dissemination of research results via publications and demonstrations in major venues worldwide, generation of intellectual property, and partnership with business units to ensure the successful exploitation of research outputs.
Finally, the researcher will pursue available funding opportunities at the National, European and International level.
