Post-doc in quantum computing for chemistry: The successful candidate will be involved in development, implementation, and numerical simulations of novel multiscale quantum-classical algorithms for applications in chemistry specifically designed for NISQ devices. Proof-of-concept implementations on IBM quantum devices are anticipated.The project is funded by the Czech science foundation.
The initial contract period will be for 1 year with a possible extension to up to 3 years and with a possibility of research stays in collaborating groups (USA - University of California in Santa Barbara, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, Japan - RIKEN, Poland - Lodz University).
Starting date: can be negotiated
Requirements
- PhD in physics or chemistry
- expertise in quantum algorithms and/or quantum chemistry and method development
- expertise in C++/Python programming
- good publication record (4+ publications in high-impact journals)
- good knowledge of IBM Qiskit framework is most welcome
