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.

Location: Oak Ridge, TN, US, 37830
Company: Oak Ridge National Laboratory
Overview:
Oak Ridge National Laboratory is the largest US Department of Energy science and energy laboratory, conducting basic and applied research to deliver transformative solutions to compelling problems in energy and security.
We are seeking a Postdoctoral Research Associate who will focus on ab initio and classical molecular dynamics simulations and machine learning methods to understand the chemistry of molten salts and design molten salts compositions for energy related applications. This position resides in the Chemical Separations Group of the Chemical Sciences Division, Physical Sciences Directorate (PSD) at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL). In this role, you will perform computational studies aimed at understanding of thermodynamic and kinetic principles of ion pairing and coordination that govern the chemistry of molten salts at the forefront of the field through high-performance computing (HPC) and data science. Computational methods will primarily involve ab initio, force field-based, and machine-learning-based molecular dynamics simulations of molten salts. You will also work within a multidisciplinary multi-institutional team involving specialists in first principles calculations, data science, spectroscopy, and experimental characterization.
