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.

A 2-year postdoctoral position is available to work with Prof Nicholas Hine, in the Theory Group of the Department of Physics at the University of Warwick. The position will involve advancing the scope and scale of Linear-Scaling Density Functional Theory Calculations with the ONETEP LS-DFT code through development of wide ranging functionality.

Key responsibilities include: designing and implementing new data structures within the ONETEP code (http://www.onetep.org) to enable future software sustainability and new functionalities; developing new functionality in the ONETEP code to enable applications to complex surfaces and vdW heterostructures; demonstrating the capability of your developments through exemplar applications to materials of interest and in collaboration with experimental partners.

This position is a great opportunity to get involved in a wide range of types of calculation with a wide range of collaborators – experimental and theoretical. The position suits candidates at any stage of their career who have demonstrable ability in programming for scientific applications. We would like to recruit someone with some level of coding experience, preferably in a compiled language - please ensure your application gives evidence of this.

If you have any questions please contact Nicholas Hine [email protected] - also happy to meet interested candidates at the Psi-K conference (22-25 Aug).

The closing date for applications is 31st August 2022.
