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.
Postdoc in electronic structure (No replies)
Back to Job listings...
We are looking for a postdoctoral associate with strong background in quantum chemistry and method development to work in the group of Dr. Libor Veis at J. Heyrovský Institute of Physical Chemistry in Prague.
The successful candidate will be involved in development, implementation, and application of DMRG-based electronic structure methods for molecules with strongly correlated electrons. In particular, he/she will focus on scalable implementation of the multiconfigurational adiabatic connection approach for dynamic correlation within the DMRG model, and/or DFT embedding of DMRG calculations.
The initial contract period will be for 1 year with a possible extension to up to 3 years and with the possibility of research stays in collaborating groups (Poland, USA).
Starting date: January 2023 (can be negotiated)
Requirements
- PhD in physics or chemistry
- expertise in quantum chemistry and method development
- expertise in C++/Python programming
- good publication record (4+ publications in high-impact journals)
- experience with parallel programming is most welcome
