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.

Senior Computational Scientists – Accelerator Development and Multiscale Workflows
Science and Technology Facilities Council, United Kingdom
*** DEADLINE FOR APPLICATIONS EXTENDED TO MONDAY 7 MARCH ***
We have an exciting opportunity for two Senior Computational Scientists to join the Scientific Computing Department’s team advancing Materials and Molecular Modelling on High Performance Computing (HPC) platforms. You will be doing ground breaking work alongside leading researchers at the cutting-edge of HPC.
The work forms part of the Particles At eXascale on High Performance Computers (PAX-HPC) grant funded under ExCALIBUR (https://excalibur.ac.uk), a major UK research programme that aims to deliver the next generation of high-performance simulation software for the highest-priority fields in UK research.
The first post, based at STFC’s Rutherford Appleton Laboratory, will focus on the efficient calculation of interatomic interactions on GPUs in both local basis set ab initio and classical Molecular Dynamics codes, such as DL_POLY, CP2K and CRYSTAL.
The second post, based at STFC’s Daresbury Laboratory, will focus on complex parallel workflows with an emphasis on multiscale QM/MM simulations, driven by the needs of applications in catalysis and electrochemistry.
We are looking for people with a PhD (or equivalent experience) in a physical science or other relevant field, and experience of modern software engineering and parallel programming on HPC systems.
