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.

Postdoc/software engineer positions within TREX SISSA Center of Excellence in Exascale Computing in Trieste, Italy.
Postdoc position within TREX SISSA Center of Excellence in Exascale Computing
We invite applications for one postdoc position within the newly funded European Center of Excellence TREX – “Targeting Real chemical accuracy at the EXascale”, which started its activities in October 2020. Hiring for this position will start in May 2021 and will continue for about six months.
TREX federates European scientists, HPC stakeholders, and SMEs, to develop and apply quantum mechanical simulations in the framework of quantum Monte Carlo. This methodology encompasses various techniques at the high-end in the accuracy ladder of electronic structure approaches and is uniquely positioned to fully exploit the massive parallelism of the upcoming exascale architectures. A main focus will be the development of a user-friendly and open-source software platform in the domain of stochastic quantum chemistry simulations, which will enable the convergence of high-performance and high-throughput computing.
Postdoc candidates should have a PhD in chemistry, physics, or a closely related field, with a good understanding of methods in quantum chemistry or condensed matter physics, and a strong interest in method and software development.
Interested candidates should send their CVs and at least two reference letters (sent directly by their advisors or main scientific/technical collaborators) to:
Prof. Sandro Sorella and Dr. Saverio Moroni, SISSA, Trieste, Italy,
