Postdoctoral position in Software Engineering & Continuous Experimentation at the Department of Computer Science of Lund University’s Faculty of Engineering.
Subject description
Continuous Experimentation uses field experiments to steer software product development based on user feedback and commonly relies on large amounts of user data. This project focuses on how to benefit from this approach with limited user data, and specifically when developing in-house software products and tools. Solutions can include combining different types of user data (qualitative and quantitative), identifying suitable statistical methods, re-using existing user bases.
