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.

High-level positions at FAIRmat (No replies)

The FAIRmat Consortium is building an International, FAIR Data Infrastructure for Condensed-Matter Physics and the Chemical Physics of Solids: https://www.fair-di.eu/fairmat/

The enormous amounts of research data produced every day in the fields of Condensed-Matter Physics, Materials Science, and the Chemical Physics of Solids represent a gold mine of the 21st century. This gold mine is, however, of little value, if these data are not comprehensively characterized and made available. How can we refine this feedstock, i.e., turn data into knowledge and value? For this, a FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Re-usable) data infrastructure is a must. Only then, data can be readily shared and explored by data analytics and artificial-intelligence (AI) methods. Making data Findable and AI Ready (a forward-looking interpretation of the acronym) will change the way how science is done today. The consortium FAIRmat sets out to make this happen.

FAIRmat is part of the international association FAIR-DI (https://www.fair-di.eu/). It starts from NOMAD (https://nomad-lab.eu/) but will significantly extend and advance these services by addressing materials synthesis, experiments, and theory and computations for the mentioned research areas.

We are looking for materials scientists for 

leading and managing
Area C (Theory and Computations) and
Area F (User Support, Training, and Outreach).

These are 5-year positions at a salary scale of up to TV-L E14. The positions are initially for 5 years, but a prolongation may be possible.

Furthermore we are looking for the scientific coordinator of the whole project. This would be 5-year positions at a salary scale of up to TV-L E15.

If you are interested, please apply at https://nomad-lab.eu/career/nomad-hub asap.
