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.

COMPUTATIONAL SCIENTIST - MULTISCALE ELECTROCHEMICAL EMBEDDING
http://theossrv1.epfl.ch/uploads/Main/Openings/2016_05_EPFL_ENVIRON.pdf
An opening for a computational scientist is available immediately at the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) in the laboratory for Theory and Simulation of Materials (THEOS), headed by Prof. Nicola Marzari (see http://theossrv1.epfl.ch and http://marvel-nccr.ch for further information).
The position, funded by the Swiss Platform for Advanced Scientific Computing, is dedicated to the development, application, and optimisation of multi-scale electrochemical embedding (http://www.quantum-environ.org) on parallel and hybrid architectures, also in collaboration with the group of Prof. Stefan Goedecker at the University of Basel.
Candidates are sought with passion and commitment for the field and with a strong computational background. Experience in high-performance computing, GPU parallelisation, or in http://www.quantum-espresso.org is a major advantage.
Evaluation of applications will commence immediately, and continue until the position is filled. Initial appointment will be for a year; gross salary is dependent on experience, starting at 75,000 CHF and 81,400 CHF for candidates holding, respectively, a M.Sc. or a PhD. Applicants should submit a brief letter of intent and a curriculum vitae (the latter including grade transcripts, work and programming experience, and the names of two references) to Prof. Nicola Marzari and to Dr. Oliviero Andreussi ([email protected] and [email protected]). Please put “EPFL ENVIRON” in the subject line and submit both documents in PDF.
Shortlisted candidates will be contacted individually for interviews, usually over Skype videoconferencing.
