Dear colleagues,

Thank you for broadcasting this announcement to potential applicants 
(Ph.D  graduates seeking a Post-doc fellowship).

The Modular Supercomputing and Quantum Computing Group in the Institute 
of Computer Science of the Department of Computer Science and 
Mathematics (Prof. Dr. Dr. Thomas Lippert) at Goethe University 
Frankfurt has an immediate vacancy for a Postdoctoral Researcher.

Interested applicants should apply by sending an e-mail until February 
15, 2022 to: Prof. Dr. Dr. Thomas Lippert, Institute of Computer 
Science, lippert at fias.uni-frankfurt.de. Please include your CV, 
certificates, and list of publications.

======================================================================================================================

The Modular Supercomputing and Quantum Computing Group in the Institute 
of Computer Science of the Department of Computer Science and 
Mathematics (Prof. Dr. Dr. Thomas Lippert) at Goethe University 
Frankfurt is seeking to fill the position of a Postdoctoral Researcher 
(E13 TV-G-U) initially limited for a period of three years. The 
classification is based on the job characteristics of the collective 
agreement applicable to Goethe-University (TV-G-U).

What we expect from you
=======================
You will independently research, analyze and develop in the field of the 
use of quantum computers in practical applications. Of particular 
interest are the design, porting, benchmarking, and practical use of 
quantum algorithms, with a focus on those that use quantum 
computers/quantum annealers together with HPC systems in a hybrid way. 
You will participate in the development of a software environment for 
interfacing quantum computing modules to modular HPC systems for use as 
accelerator technology in hybrid fashion on the one hand, and for 
genuine hybrid QC-HPC algorithms on the other. You are expected to 
support the teaching of the Institute of Computer Science in the 
Bachelor and Master programs as well as the publication and presentation 
of research results. You will be a partner in the acquisition and 
implementation of state, national and European funded third-party 
projects in the corresponding field.

Your responsibilities will include research in the above areas, helping 
to create access to quantum computers/quantum annealers for Frankfurt 
scientists and cooperation partners from industry, e.g. on the quantum 
infrastructure of Forschungszentrum Jülich, and being responsible for 
managing the procurement of a quantum computer system for the GU. You 
present your results in project meetings, at workshops and conferences 
and publish in journals with a high impact factor. You guide PhD and 
Master students in their scientific work and are active in teaching.

Your profile
=======================
You have completed a scientific university degree (Master or Dipl. 
Univ.) in physics or computer science. A doctorate with excellent grades 
is required. You have research experience and profound knowledge in 
simulation on supercomputers and in computing with quantum computers and 
quantum annealers. You are experienced in the design of efficient HPC 
algorithms and are engaged in the creation and implementation of quantum 
algorithms.

You should also have experience with research projects on a national, 
European and possibly international level as well as experience in 
working with IT and HPC companies. Expertise in programming languages 
such as C/C++ and Python as well as experience in parallel programming, 
e.g. with MPI, are required.

You have a strong ability to work cooperatively, to use your own 
initiative and to carry out independent research and development. We 
expect very good written and spoken English language skills as well as 
the flexibility and willingness to travel on business such as project 
meetings within Europe or to (international) conferences and workshops.

Please send your application with the usual documents (curriculum vitae, 
certificates, list of publications) by e-mail until February 15, 2022 
to: Prof. Dr. Dr. Thomas Lippert, Institute of Computer Science, 
lippert at fias.uni-frankfurt.de.
