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 postdoc position is available in the group of Prof. Yu Xie (http://iccms.jlu.edu.cn/info/1036/1331.htm) in the International Center for Computational Method and Software at Jilin University (Changchun, China). Our group is interested in developing and applying ab initio calculation methods based on real-space grid basis to study the properties of energy storage and conversion materials, carbon, and superconducting hydrides. This position focuses on developing real-space calculation methods and software for GPU. The successful candidate will also provide computational support and work closely with the experimentalists. The initial term is two years, and the position is renewable, subject to funding and mutual agreement availability. Consideration of candidates will begin immediately and will continue until the position is filled.

Qualifications

  1. A recent Ph.D. in Computational or Theoretical Chemistry, Physics, Materials Science, or related discipline
  2. Experience in electronic structure calculations (density functional theory and density functional perturbation theory) for materials evidenced by peer-reviewed publications
  3. Experience in programming for high-performance computing
  4. Experience in collaboration with experimentalists

Experience in the following areas is a plus:

  1. Familiarity with ab initio calculation methods
  2. Familiarity with MPI and/or openmp
  3. Familiarity with CUDA

Application instructions

Interested individuals are encouraged to contact Prof. Yu Xie ([email protected] or [email protected]). Please provide the CV, a cover letter describing your interest and experience, and the contact information for at least two references familiar with your work.
