Position Summary

We are seeking a qualified candidate for a tenure-track position on our main campus located in Klamath Falls, OR. Qualified applicants should have a strong background in computer engineering and embedded systems. Knowledge and skills in RISC-V, ARM, and digital logic design using FPGAs with Verilog HDL are required; additionally, graduate-level knowledge and some professional background in C/C++ development are expected of the successful incumbent.

As a small department, all faculty are expected to teach a variety of courses from freshman through senior level. Specifically, for example, freshman-sophomore areas of expertise include Digital Logic Design, C/C++, and FPGA-based logic design. For higher-level classes (junior-senior), skills in Embedded Testing and Verification using System Verilog HDL, Real-Time Operating System (RTOS), System on a Chip (SoC) Design, Embedded Networking, or Embedded Security are preferred. The successful incumbent is not expected to be able to cover all the noted courses, although broad backgrounds are preferrable.

The primary job duties for this position are teaching, advising, scholarship, and service. Scholarship may include, but is not limited to, the publication of scholarly works, collaboration with industrial partners, student-oriented applied research, and grant writing for internal and external funding. Institutional service may include advising, serving on campus committees, and participating in departmental initiatives.

Individuals from historically underrepresented groups and all those who share our commitment to inclusivity and passion for the strength of our diversity are strongly encouraged to apply.

Minimum Requirements:

• PhD in a related field
• Knowledge and skills in RISC-V, ARM, and digital logic design using FPGAs with Verilog HDL.
