Deuxfleurs and IMT Atlantique are partnering to fund a PhD student to work on Garage and distributed systems theory, as part of the SEED PhD program, and we are looking for a candidate. This is a French PhD so the program duration is 3 years, starting in September 2024, and the student is expected to already have a master's degree or to obtain one before September 2024. The PhD will take place mostly at IMT Atlantique in Nantes (France) within the STACK team, with a three-month stay at Deuxfleurs and a three-month stay abroad (probably in the US). Ideally we are looking for a candidate that already has solid Rust coding skills and a good understanding of distributed systems theory, however both skills can be learnt during the program. Dr. Alex Auvolat from Deuxfleurs will be supervising the student along with Dr. Daniel Balouek from IMT Atlantique. This is a great opportunity to improve your Rust coding skills, learn distributed systems theory, travel to France, meet the great people behind Deuxfleurs and, incidentally, obtain a diploma. Feel free to apply or pass the information to anyone you know who might be interested.

A webinar will be held on Friday, Jan 10, 2024, at 11:00 CET, to introduce the PhD subject and the context. See details at this address (we are subject 6-consensus-algorithms).

The PhD topic is open for applications until Jan 31, 2024.
