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.

OFFER DESCRIPTION
A PostDoc position (at the junior or senior level) is now available to work on codes/methods development and applications in computational spectroscopy.
This position is open within the framework of the European H2020-NMBP SimDOME project (SimDOME: Digital Ontology-based Modelling Environment for Simulation of materials; Call: H2020-NMBP-TO-IND-2018-2020; Topic: DT-NMBP-09-2018, GA 814492) that is a general collaborative experimental/theoretical effort involving several European academic teams and companies, performing codes development and experimental validation. The aim is to bridge the gap between academia and productive environments by bringing available academic codes in materials modelling and molecular spectroscopies (TRL4) into operational productive environment to reach TRL 7. For that, intuitive user friendly interfaces need to be developed and the codes adapted as well to the needs of non-specialized users, and possibly interfaced with the hardware employed in the companies, by exploiting the ontological framework design for materials modelling by the European Materials Modelling Council.
The recruited person will develop user-friendly computational tools and methods, and will perform test case applications, for the accurate prediction of linear/non-linear electronic molecular spectroscopies in order to assist the design, synthesis and characterization of photoactive molecular materials and devices.
The work will be performed at the Department of Industrial Chemistry "T. Montanari" (http://www.chimica-industriale.unibo.it) of Bologna University (http://www.unibo.it) within the group of Computational Photochemistry and Functional Materials , under the supervision of Prof. Marco Garavelli (http://www.unibo.it/docenti/marco.garavelli), and will involve interaction and cooperation with the POLIMI spin-off company NIREOS (http://www.nireos.com) for experimental testing and validation, as well as with Fraunhofer (https://www.fraunhofer.de) that will coordinate software integration within the European Materials Modelling Marketplaces platforms.
The PostDoctoral position (1 year, renewable, with a salary proportional to the experience starting from 25 k€/year gross salary) is immediately available. The ideal candidate must have a consolidated experience in scientific codes programming (with a preference in computational chemistry and molecular modelling codes). A background in computational chemistry/photochemistry/spectroscopy, ranging from method developments to applications, is also welcome.
Interested candidates are invited to send their CV, publications list and a presentation letter (two names should be also provided for references) to [email protected]. Short listed candidates will be invited for an interview.
