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.

Back to Job listings...
A post-doctoral position is available at the ICN2 (Barcelona) in the Theory and Simulation group, led by Pablo Ordejon, within the EC project INTERSECT.
The work focuses on the development of different new computational methods within the SIESTA package to extract physical properties, which might include: formation enthalpy of charged defects, electron-phonon matrix elements from linear response (DFPT), dissipation scattering rates for electrical and thermal conductivity, dynamics of domain walls in ferroic materials, or defect diffusion barriers.
Requirements:
- PhD in Physics, Materials Science, Chemistry, or related disciplines
- Knowledge of DFT methods, coding in Fortran+MPI, python
- Professional Experience in computational science (ideally, with SIESTA), high-performance computing, and high- throughput calculations
- Competences: Strong commitment, attention to detail, demonstrated ability to work with deadines, manage conflicting priorities, excellent communication skills and ability to work with highly qualified professionals with international backgrounds.
The initial contract is for one year, that can be renewed up to three years upon mutual agreement.
Application deadline: December 10, 2018
Starting date: January 2019
