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.

The Centro de Fisica de Materiales is searching for a postdoctoral researcher to work on the development and application of Wannier-based methods to study nonlinear magnetotransport phenomena, optical responses, and topological properties, among others.
The initial appointment is for 1 year, with the possibility of renewal or a second year upon mutual agreement. The successful candidate will work under the supervision of Stepan Tsirkin and Ivo Souza.
Solid background in electronic structure calculations and good programming skills are required for this position. Most of the development is expect to take place around the WannierBerri code package (http://wannier-berri.org/)
The following will be considered as advantages:
1) Experience with Wannier90 and/or WannierBerri as a user or contributor
2) Knowledge of the internals of community DFT codes
3) Familiarity with Berry-phase aspects of electronic structure
The expected start of the contract is between December 2021 and Spring of 2022. The review of applications will start on November 2nd, and continue until the position is filled.
To apply, please send a CV, a short motivation letter and contacts of 2-3 potential referees to [email protected]
