We have several postdoc positions at

THE NOMAD (Novel Materials Discovery) LABORATORY
at the Fritz Haber Institute of the Max Planck Society and the Humboldt Universität zu Berlin https://th.fhi-berlin.mpg.de/site/

and the associated
NOMAD European Center of Excellence (https://nomad-coe.eu/).

You will work with world leading scientists and actively shape cutting-edge materials-science research. Specifically, you will be part of an international team working on

-- Fully Anharmonic, Non-Perturbative Electrical-Transport Theory and Thermoelectric Materials discovery (by ab initio molecular dynamics/statistical mechanics)
--  Advancing beyond DFT methodologies (e.g. GW and coupled cluster approaches) toward exascale performance.

The methods to be used are the all-electron electronic-structure code FHI-aims, https://fhi-aims.org/, which is increasingly linked to various state-of-the-art artificial intelligence tools, e.g. symbolic regression and compressed sensing (SISSO) as well as neural networks (see for example https://nomad-lab.eu/aitoolkit).

The positions are initially for one year, but prolongations are possible.

We are looking for candidates who recently obtained their PhD with highest qualification in computational materials science or related fields, a strong programming background (python, C++, Fortran etc.), and experience on coding for HPC (massively parallel MPI, GPUs, etc.).

Please submit the following application documents

- Letter of motivation (max. 1 page)
- Curriculum vitae
- Contact information of supervisors, previous employers, or similar
- Certificates

as one PDF file to [email protected].

We are looking forward to receiving your application!

Matthias Scheffler, Christian Carbogno, and Thomas Purcell
