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 3D Materials Lab at the Colorado School of Mines and the National Renewable Energy Laboratory is seeking a postdoctoral research fellow in the area of data-driven materials discovery. The position is open immediately, but the starting date is negotiable. The initial appointment will be for one year with the possibility for additional years of support provided adequate progress on the project. The position will remain open until filled.
There are several funded projects in the general area of data-driven materials discovery, defect properties, and alloy modeling with applications in solid-state batteries, thermoelectrics, ferroelectrics, and microelectronics. The specific projects(s) will be decided based on the candidate’s research interests and project goals.
Desired qualifications: (1) PhD in Materials Science, Chemistry, Physics, Chemical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or closely related fields. (2) Background in density functional theory (VASP, QE). (3) Prior experience with machine learning, materials informatics is a bonus, but not necessary. (4) Excellent oral and written communication skills that will facilitate the research dissemination and interdisciplinary collaborations with multiple teams.
To apply: Please send your CV and a brief description of your research interests to Dr. Prashun Gorai ([email protected]).
