PhD position in the Networked Systems Group


The Networked Systems Group is a research group in the Department of Information Technology and Electrical Engineering (D-ITET) at ETH Zürich led by Prof.

Laurent Vanbever.

We are interested in hot and upcoming research topics in computer networks, with a special focus on network management.

Our overarching goal is to make current and future computer networks (especially the Internet) easier to design, understand and operate.


We are currently active in multiple areas including, but not limited to: Internet routing, network programmability, network verification, network monitoring, network sustainability, and network security.

Most of our projects are inherently multidisciplinary and tend to involve recent advances in programming languages, algorithmics, and machine learning.


Job description:

In our group, we tend to combine theory with practice.

Some of our members focus more on algorithms and proofs, while others focus more on network systems design and building.


As a new member, you are supposed to contribute to our research activities and gradually build your own independent research profile according to your interests.

You are expected to work towards a doctoral degree and participate in our teaching activities.

Your profile:


We are looking for a new member with a strong networking and/or systems background and a Master's degree in computer science, electrical engineering or a related field.

Ideally, we are looking for someone with previous experiences, knowledge and/or strong interests about:

  • Network management/operations
  • Distributed systems
  • Routing protocols
  • Modern networking stacks
  • Knowledge in programming, formal methods, security, or hardware design is a plus

We offer:

  • ETH Zurich is a familyfriendly employer with excellent working conditions. You can look forward to an exciting working environment, cultural diversity, and attractive offers and benefits.

Curious? So are we
:

- a (short) letter of motivation,

  • CV,
- as well as a transcript of your grades.


The goal of your letter of motivation should be to help us gauge your interest and motivation in pursuing research in computer networks.

  • A fresh idea for research you would be interested to work on? (Or maybe you know some open problems in our area?)
  • How to improve or build upon one of our previous results?
  • Previous experiences in managing complex network environments/infrastructures?
  • Some awesome lectures you have attended in our area in which you have achieved excellent grades?
  • Anything else that you think might impress or be relevant?
