The role is part of AI²: Assurance and Insurance for Artificial Intelligence, a major research programme on insuring AI systems. The project is a collaboration between the University of Edinburgh, the University of Oxford, the University of Warwick and AXA. It aims to develop the mathematical, statistical and computational foundations needed to evaluate, price, monitor and mitigate risks arising from AI systems, including generative and agentic AI.

The successful candidates will work on rigorous methods for AI risk assessment and insurance. Relevant research areas include risk measures, systemic risk, conformal prediction, uncertainty quantification, stochastic and Bayesian optimisation, reinforcement learning, AI security, red-teaming and jailbreak evaluation.
