POSITION SUMMARY The Center for Computational Quantum Physics invites applications for a position in the field of machine learning approaches to quantum many-body science. We seek an intellectual leader who will establish a strong research program in this area. An affiliation with the Flatiron Institute's Center for Computational Mathematics may also be possible.
Directed by Antoine Georges and co-directed by Andrew Millis, the Center for Computational Quantum Physics (CCQ) is a leading international center for the study of equilibrium and non-equilibrium many-body quantum systems, with applications to condensed matter physics, materials science, chemistry and related fields. The development of the concepts, algorithms and code libraries needed to advance the field is fundamental to the work of the center. Research projects currently pursued at CCQ cover a broad range of methods and interest.
CCQ currently comprises more than 45 research and data scientists at career stages from recent Ph.D.s through senior scientists, as well as support staff, visiting scientists, and affiliated graduate students and interns. CCQ has vigorous visitor and workshop programs and strong interactions with scientists from neighboring institutions.
Associate Research Scientists/Research Scientists are researchers who develop theoretical concepts, algorithms and codes, and apply these to obtain new insights into the quantum-mechanical behavior of materials and molecules. They develop their own research programs and also work in collaboration with other CCQ scientists including postdoctoral fellows. Reporting to research scientists, and/or the director or co-director of CCQ as appropriate, these positions are based at the Flatiron Institute, Simons Foundation in New York City.
Associate Research Scientists are typically appointed for an initial three-year period; the appointment may be renewed for up to another three years. Research Scientists positions are not term limited. Associate Research Scientists may be reviewed for promotion to a non-term-limited position as a research scientist. Hiring will occur at a level determined by the relevant experience of the candidate.
Review of applications will begin on or about Nov 15, 2021.
