The Max Planck Institute for the Structure and Dynamics of Matter (MPSD) is located at the Science Campus Hamburg-Bahrenfeld and investigates dynamical phenomena within matter down to the elementary timescales of atomic and electronic motions, the femtosecond or attosecond timescale. The focus is on the use of short wavelength ultrafast probes, such as X-rays or electron pulses, which are capable of measuring atomic and electronic structures in matter of all kinds.

For our TheoryDepartment we are seeking for a Software Developer (m/f/d)

Your position:

The successful candidate will work on the maintenance and development of the in-house scientific computer program OCTOPUS, a package aimed at the first principles simulation of the response of molecules, nanostructures and solids to arbitrary time dependent external perturbations and on improving the performance and massive parallelization of the code. He/she will also contribute to the training of the students in the proper use of the code and in the best software development practices used within the department. He/she will also support the software implementation of new concepts and algorithms.

The candidate should integrate into a very active and multidisciplinary international research group and would collaborate with the Department-IT personnel to coordinate all computer and IT services relevant for the Theory Department.
