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.

We are looking for a highly motivated PhD candidate, with background in Physics, Chemistry or Materials Science and who is willing to develop and apply cutting-edge theoretical methods for the investigation of spectroscopic properties and electronic dynamics of advanced materials. Experience in programming and using software for electronic structure calculations is desirable.
We are also looking for an experienced and motivated scientist, holding a PhD in Physics, Chemistry, or Materials Science. The applicants should have expertise in density functional theory and beyond-DFT methods for theoretical spectroscopy. Experience in modelling condensed matter systems is considered a valuable requisite. Excellent programming abilities (preferably in Python and Fortran) and strong records in theory and algorithmic developments are required and knowledge of high-performance computing is desirable.
The successful candidates will work in the group of Computational Materials Science at the University of Zurich (Iannuzzi's group) on the development and application of computational approaches to study light-induced processes at the nanoscale, by modelling the electronic structure beyond the ground state and addressing the role of excited states, non adiabatic dynamics, and charge transfer.
Interested candidates are invited to send the CV, a research statement, and names and email addresses of recommenders to [email protected]
