Job announcements relevant to people interested in electronic structure calculations…
Due to the large number of posts recently, there is currently a delay of several weeks between posts being submitted and the corresponding emails being distributed to all users. Please bear with us while we try to improve this. In the meantime – and until this notice is removed – it would assist us considerably if you could submit only important and/or urgent posts and thus help to reduce the size of the mail queue. Under no circumstances should you resend posts multiple times when you find the emails are not distributed immediately.
In light of the Russian military offensive in Ukraine, we request that announcements relating to events, jobs and other activities associated with institutions supported by the Russian and Belarusian states are not posted to the Psi-k forum.

ICIQ is looking for two postdoctoral researchers to work in challenging projects on Theoretical Heterogeneous Catalysis.
Position with ref. 2022-03 NL: the project involves simulations for electrochemical reactions in renewable energy conversion to chemicals and fuels through computational modeling with Density Functional Theory and advanced computational techniques and machine learning concepts. The candidate needs to have an interest in atomic-scale modelling and to have performed studies and simulations applying density functional theory and electronic structure calculations by using periodic ab initio codes.
Position with ref. 2022-07 NL: project to be defined.
Requirements
*Finished Ph.D. in Physics, Materials Science, or Theoretical/Computational Chemistry.
*Strong expertise in the use of DFT, VASP, QE, LAMMPS and related codes.
*Experience in multiscale simulations of materials from ab initio to Molecular Mechanics.
*Previous experience with Python and HPC resources.
*Ability to cooperate with experimental teams.
*Ability to present the results of research in scientific journals and in international congresses and also to non-scientific audiences is a must.
*Proven excellent knowledge of English (desirable C1 level, IELTS 7.0-7.5).
